Yesterday I dey kitchen till almost 10.30pm
Cooked okro soup and Ofe Akwu for today's rice. With well seasoned beef

As I woke up happily to go an warm it and it was looking a bit swollen with tiny little bubbles popping up.

Hmmm maybe na prank
I turned around to check. But na my house so I no expect to see hidden camera.

Na so this banga take spoil.
The idea was to include some more veggies and stock fish to the stew this morning b4 dishing it into the storage containers for freezing.

Hmmm! *sighs deeply*

At that moment i wished I was a babe so I would have no excuses than to start crying like a child.

I legit felt like crying at that instant because WTF?! And fridge dey o

I had to go borrow a bigger pistle & mortar from a neighbour to get this stew done faster that yesterday and now it's spoilt?

This can't be true.
I just bent over the pot to perceive the aroma but... Nothing. No odd smells. But it's def going bad

Madd! 😠

Its over 3 hours now since I warmed it up again. I want to know if there's any solution to make it taste any better as it kinda slaps a bit and not so fresh any more


. I feel like calling my babe to ask for a solution but remember say I no get babe .. now I'm double mad! 😡 💢

Called mumsy and she advised to add some balls of charcoal to it.

I think I understand how women feel when they have drastic mood swings and go from happy to erratic in seconds. That's me rn.

I went from having the mental composure of Master Shifu (see Kungfu Panda) to that of a 3yo baby.

So now... Sunday lunch will be replanned.
Any remedy to the soup? Any hope

I'm omw to the market to get some charred coal. I'll check suggestions so I'll buy anything I need at once

nedekid:
Op don use spoon taste am if e sweet, him lick the spoon, come say him no sure say the salt reach, na so him put am back inside soup for second tasting.

And I dey sure say op no let the soup boil last, before im bring am down from fire.

Una wey be men can sabi turn food 💯 times for fire ehn.

Blakjewelry:
You should have serve the foamy top off immediately before warming it. That is the trick I discovered long time ago.

DrAda:
This happens to the best of us.

To fix this, I always add more crayfish and ahigbe leaves also called ncho anwu or scent leaves. It helps but the taste will never be the same.

Next time, do the following
1. Never close the pot completely after cooking. This will allow steam to escape and prevent condensation, which can create a damp environment that will cause the food to spoil faster.

2. Use a clean spoon each time you taste the soup, and avoid putting the same spoon back into the pot. Saliva on the spoon can introduce enzymes and bacteria that might speed up the process of spoilage.

sonofsteven:
I'm surprised to hear that Banga wey you cook spoil...from the point you off fire to when you on the fire no 10hrs,for it to cool properly go take approximately 2hrs because na oil,so you no really talk wetin do the soup. .... next time you see foam inside your stew or soup,before you warm,make sure you remove the whole foam better still, clear the surface and put 2pcs or 3pcs of charcoal in it then warm

Lovelydaisies:
I don't know, I'm no expert but you may just serve it and refrigerate it as soon as possible, to prevent further degradation.

And each time, as you warm after defreezing, check for the taste to upgrade - maybe more crayfish, more nchu anwu (scent leaves), more ogili, salt....

Also, try not to cover the pot immediately after cooking.

I want to cook the soup but no energy and it can consume gas sometimes.

Funny post though.
Kpele!

HelipsTech:
Add palm oil, enough onion and recook without covering it.

If you have charcoal drop some big balls inside while cooking. Charcoals are good adsorbent
