As a jobless, hungry and frustrated Nigerian job seeker, I travelled for a job related matter to stay with a friend in his one room apartment. I realized this guy does literally everything with periwinkle. He cooks literally everything with periwinkle. Soup, rice, beans and even sometimes, he prepares it eat it alone without combining with anything.

I am a lover of periwinkle but it seems I met someone who love periwinkle more than me.

Who else love periwinkle and how often do you cook with it?

Meanwhile living in this economy without a job is worst than hell. God forbid what I am currently going through. I need a job. I need love. Give me a job and show me love please before I kpai.

. What's your location and how much pay will to too little for you to work?

I prefer the second way, by removing it totally from the shell

Never really warmed up to the thing even when it’s in soups! I grew up with Onitsha/Asaba culinary styles and this one is more of a riverine/Niger-Delta thing?

You don chop ujuju soup before?

that method very dangerous.... because it's not washed properly...

The shell is calcium laced, just wash it with salty warm water. It is only dangerous for kids and older people who may have risk of swallowing entire shells. It is a food eaten with patience and relaxation.

How do you eat this stuff? I ate a soup from a vendor with this stuff all over the soup (Afang i believe). I almost broke my teeth trying to crack it. So how is this edible? is there what i should have done that i don't know about yet?

You suck the content out. I prefer it's already de-shelled before cooking, sucking it out from the shell is hardwork.

Re: Periwinkle: How Often Do You Cook With This? by Josywhyte: 7:32pm On May 28

As a Yoruba Family, we never knew the existence of this lovely stuff.

I was privileged to experience its lovely taste one day while still a teenager, I went to eat in our neighbours house, I dont know their tribe but since many people generalised people from the south as Ibo, so I will assume too.

It was very lovely, still cant forget the taste till now. It is over forty or so years ago.

I think I have ate once or twice after that but can't recall those.

Since you liked it, why haven't you been going for more? Or you don't have access to it?

It can be washed properly. Some people even wash with boiled water before putting it into the soup..

You went eating it with the shell. Chai. That's not how to eat it. You suck the flesh out from the shell, eat the flesh and dispose the shall.

"Shelled periwinkle" in afang (and any soup) is the name of the game.

You make it seem in your post that Yoruba folks of the riverine and Atlantic Ocean waters don't eat periwinkles in their cuisines. I'm referencing the riverine Yorubas such as the Ilaje-Yoruba folks for instance (who are traditionally indigenous to Ondo State) but who have a massive spread in fishing communities from Lagos, parts of Benin Republic, Ogun, Ondo, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom right into Cameroon.
