HantaVirus:It's okay to use either 'poor or idiots' but using the two words makes me think you're those kinda ppl who became so insulting &mannerless cos of some cheap wealth and travelling overseas mentality. 90% of homes in Nigeria got a cooking gas ,nobody wanna go through the stress of using firewood. Nevertheless some still use it especially when they feel like getting a different taste or have some big parties/ occasion. It doesn't mean they're poor, it's a free world. |

Barbecued food with firewood taste better than gas. Same applies to party Jollof, party moimoi, party fried rice, Asun, party stew e.t.c. the party flavour is from the smoked wood used in cooking the party food. For convenience, gas is better. A Jamaican friend imports some of his wood from Jamaica to Canada just to get that wood flavour in his wood grilled Jerk chicken whenever he hosts a get together. There are also liquid smoke for those that love that smokey flavour, and charcoal barbecue grill are also still being sold in stores.

Why does it taste different and why do we prefer one over the other Taste and Scent = Flavor and all cooked foods have a "Primary Flavor" which allows you to tell Jollof-rice from Fried Rice. The question is which food has a better flavor? Gas or Firewood cooked foods. Before you jump the gun and make conclusions please be aware that Firewood-cooked foods use Iron/Aluminum-based metals while you will most likely use Steel or mixed-Aluminium for Gas-cooking. When you blast iron/aluminum up to their melting point, it releases a chemical that mixes with the food and gives you that "Smokey Flavour" from the charcoal fire. In Gas-based cooking, the melting point of steel is significantly higher than Aluminum so there is less chemical reaction mixing with the food. This causes the pot to retain the "Primary Flavor" So if you like Firewood-cooked foods, just be aware that the reason it tastes different is not necessarily because it is better, it is because there has been a chemical reaction that has changed the primary taste of the food |

Firewood. Because when cooking we sprinkle part of the ashes on the food and stir with the wood to give an extra taste and aroma. ![]() |

nextstep:I understand you quite well. If you noticed, I placed emphases on 2 things, Temperature and Duration or Time. A good cook can use gas to achieve almost anything. It's just to understand the basic science in what you want to cook and achieve. I cook very well personally and also from a very humble background. I stayed in village where we used firewood and stove back then. I also used "abacha gas" known as sawdust and charcoal in Benin back then too. So all round I have used eventually every cooking means in Nigeria. If it is the distinct smoke taste that one needs, that's a different thing entirely. But my submission was based on which one sweet pass as asked by OP. Like I said earlier, DURATION is very important in cooking. Me I dont buy roasted corn in Nigeria because they don't know how to play with the DURATION in making it. I buy fresh one and roast it myself at home. You need to see the colour alone. It comes brownish because I work on the Temperature/DURATION. Let me post sample for you to see my roasted corns.....

I was once a distributor of charcoal aka firewood here in Europe and i can tell you that most of the prestigious Restuarants here only cook with charcoal. I mean five star Restuarants I dont know...but to them it gives the food a special TASTE |
