Some food bloggers I follow keep posting it, and hyping the taste.
They call it beske.

Have you ever eaten it?
If you have, how would you describe the taste?
I'd really love to try it, as it looks like something I might like.

I can already imagine making crayfish-pepper sauce with it.

At a glimpse, Im trying to figure out what it is...

Cheese ?
Tofu ?

Sweet Northern alewa ( i really miss it!)

What's it ?

This is not Alewa. Looks more like awara/wara, a Northern staple made from soy beans.

Nlfpmod, happy sunday to you. 👋🏼👋🏼

Uhm…nope.
Kinda looks like tofu tho.
Maybe it is,maybe it ain’t.

Yes I have eaten it
It tastes like fish, so delicious

I have tried making it several times

Lol that's the most common snack in Ilorin. It has a characteristic taste.
Full of protein.

Can't say it's delicious though. In fact, I lean towards it having little taste.

But it's a subjective view. Several people like it

Awara is our northern delicacy. Been eating it since i was a kid. Has a taste of corn in it and best eaten with pepper or stew.

It's practically impossible to be a Unilorite and be bereft of this all through your stay there. Lol... you must have had a beske sha ni

Come to Northern Nigeria and you will love it. There is nobody in the North that doesn't know Awara.

Made of Soybean right? It's cool when served in the right place.

Baske kwa?
This is awara!
It’s a normal snack in the Northern Nigeria, made from soya beans
Enjoy yourself.
Just taste and see that the snack is good.

For those wondering if it's "tofu"; yes, it is. Hausas call it "awara". Made from soya beans milk just as "wara" is made from dairy milk.
You could call it non-dairy cheese.🤷

One of my favorite snacks!👍👌

This is tofu/awara.
It's from soya beans like you said.

Wara suya beske, ore mi loru jeja lo

Wara is made from soya Beans

Nutritious and sweet

I used to hawk it for my mom when I was small. I sabi do am weller

Awara we call it in my region, not that tasty but it's nice.
It's prepared using benign seed/soya bean

Awara sold mostly by the northerners, seems like it's native to them.

Nutritious doesn't mean delicious.
So, is it delicious?
