TimiofAbuja:
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

Mariangeles:
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.

Goldbw122:
Can someone waybill this nice food, I just like it..

armyofone:
Based on the responses to my first, Yes I eat Tofu every now and then. Very bland but fried ones taste okay when eaten with jasmine rice or plainly.

Anything from soya beans 🫘 is bland eg Soy milk.

Go-ahead and try it Mariangeles.

femi4:
What's the ingredients like, never heard of it

iamnotillicit:
That's the twist o babe

I have met more people that LOVE it more than those that don't


That's what motivated me to try, but I blame myself

However I think it depends on the person who prepared it, there's a woman in my present hood that makes it and even respectable people that I know often says she is the best, infact she marinates it in a sweet spicy sauce ( from the look of it)
But from my first experience I don't wanna relieve it

Mariangeles:
Really? Tell me about it! 😀

So, have you both started making and selling it again?
It's quite tedious to make from scratch.

That was my primary school days. 2000-2005 . My mum had a store at the higher institution in our area. I detest idleness. I'd suggested we make and sell wara soya beske when the students were on strike or holiday. She doesn't like been idle too.

haybhi1:
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

Konquest:
Where did the name "beske" come from? Is the name beske etymologically Nigerian?

ponishah:
Which lab or scientist ran the test to decide it nutritional value?
Nigerians are fond of taking a lot for granted

haybhi1:
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

Kelklein:
I think we should call it the original name by those that own and make it.. fried awara. I don't know about beske.

Hardeybohwarley:
I'm guessing you're from Ede from your username.

If that's correct. Bawo ni omo Ede ile Timi.

Yes. That's the nickname. It also has a song. It became popular during Obasanjo's first term when fish was expensive.

Warasoya besike, ote mi lorun ju eja lo. Onigun merindinlogun, onigun metadinlogun.

Meaning wara soya beske is more satisfactory to me than fish . Wara with numerous angles.
