It’s breadfruit seeds. Not groundnut.

It’s common in the eastern part of Nigeria

The website is called carrygo.com. Check them out. I even saw they have oxford cabin biscuits. Proper Nigerian seller if you ask me.

I can relate babe. I’ve been wanting to make native rice and abacha but my husband is not into those things. He will just abandon the whole pot for me. I told him we will have to employ a family of proper Nigerians to eat food for us. That way I can practice all the recipes I put on hold because I don’t know who will eat them.

Lol at drinking tea up and down grin

sassysure:

@cococandy, I will do anything to get that ukwa

I love ukwa so much and its one of the healthiest food out there.
This my family sef, igbo and Nigerian for mouth. The day I cooked ukwa, na so them dey look me, I did yam with green and ugba, one said I want to poison him
Is it abacha, u are strictly on your own. Only soup and not all soup. Very fake igbo people.

It's drinking tea up and down.
Shior.

Oh dear, this is what we take for granted here. I can't wait to see the magic you will produce with it. Ukwa is one of my favorite food, especially eating and drinking the broth. Lol

Guys I’m in tears of joy now.
Never thought I’d eat ukwa again for a long time.
I found this website on a random search and ordered ukwa from them. They are based in Texas and my items got to me in less than 3 days. The ukwa is even fresher than I thought I’d be given that it’s been dried a bit to preserve it. And only $8 shipping fee shocked

They also have kuli kuli, stock fish, banga spice. I’ll be ordering again from them. The customer service was also on point. I don’t even know who this lady is (calls herself Mary) but this is how you do business.

Wait for the cooked ukwa okay? cheesy

Well she’s only 3 and she looks like she’s 5 so I don’t think she will starve. I just pray she develops good eating habits not the American habits

Mariangeles:
Hmmm! The chicken looks crunchy on the outside and tempting too
Would you share your marinade recipe ?

Absolutely.

I usually use a blend of hot peppers, garlic and ginger steeped in cooking oil for the aroma and heat. Then add McCormick blend of spices for flavor. Then maggi, salt and chicken cubes for taste.

The quantity you use depends on the amount you are making and how rich or mild you want the taste to be. Also the pepper/ginger/garlic paste quantity used depends on how fragrant and hot you want it to be.

I often make the blend of peppers ahead of time and save it in the fridge. It last a long time. The oil helps it to retain its heat and flavor so it doesn’t evaporate. It just makes cooking easier for me as I just scoop a spoonful or two and add to anything I’m making without worrying about cleaning blender in between cooking.

Use your favorite hot peppers and the amount of ginger and garlic you want. You have to tell those you live with that it’s not stew because it will look like stew. cheesy

The McCormick spices I used are pictured below. I use a tablespoon of each.

And it’s healthier than fried

But I like fried too. I just feel guilty when I fry my chicken cheesy

I can finish that chicken in a second, my love for chicken mostly roasted and baked one eeehnn (dislike fried chicken ever since I do more of roasting).

You diced the veggies yourself or you bought precut?

Overripe is a requirement cheesy

I’m not arguing with you about the might of America. You didn’t have to go into that long post to tell me something I already know.

Yet I’m telling you I love Canada on a more emotional level. You know that patriotism is also a feeling and that’s a feeling USA doesn’t evoke very much. (At least for me). And that’s the only area I love Canada more for.

Personally I’m just glad I can benefit from the USA and still experience Canada as often as I can when work allows.

franchasng:
In summary, you just agreed with all of us that America is the greatest country on earth today!

Military might
Economy
Number of billionaires
Science innovation
Technology innovation
Number of biggest & richest companies
Most humane (I am sure u and many people condemning or trying to cast America got into US via free American DV visa lottery program for all which no other nation on earth have done or dared to do)

After America comes other nations. They worked for it. Everybody knows the truth that America is number 1 nation.

Canada is just upcoming with lots of empty lands and low population reason you feel at peace there cos competition is low, and income is low too in Canada compared to US.

USA give opportunity to all; legal or illegal.

It is only in US that an illegal migrant can end up becoming very financially free without involving in illegal businesses like drug peddling, prostitution and what have you.

Try it in Europe or Canada, and you will die of hunger if you are illegal that refuse to do illegal businesses to earn a living.

But in US, illegals can do odd legal jobs and still live large if they are hardworking and ready to work.

Nobody should dare compare US with Canada or stupid UK

I’m a USA citizen but I love Canada with all my heart. I always visit Canada whenever the opportunity arises and I’m always sad to go back home to US.

USA may be the greatest country in the world based on power and economy and tech etc but greatness also depends on how living there makes you feel and I love the feeling Canada evokes in me.

USA is great for my pocket and for that I’ll give it my loyalty because I love money very much. That’s the honest truth in my experience.
