Most asked questions about OFE NSALA:
*1. Flo, why did you not add uda, uziza, and all the other gbogbotigbo ingredients?*
This is Ofe Nsala, it is NOT pepper soup, neither is it Ji Mmiri Oku for new mums, all those ingredients will make the Ofe Nsala taste like pepper soup or Ji Mmiri Oku, you don't want that.
Recipe for Ji Mmiri Oku: th-cam.com/video/yeft4qFqwgk/w-d-xo.html
Nigerian Assorted Meat Pepper Soup: th-cam.com/video/zTlBgXI6zFM/w-d-xo.html
*2. Which other leaf can I use apart from utazi?*
The only other leaf I recommend is spinach. For those that think utazi is too bitter, the bitter taste of the utazi does not come through in this Ofe Nsala because you only add a small quantity. Also the sweet taste of the yam and the taste of the catfish masks any tiny bitter taste you would have felt.
*3. Can I add chicken, beef, goat meat and dry fish to my Ofe Nsala?*
A big fat NO! You just need catfish. Any other addition is Adulterated Ofe Nsala. The reason some people add all other types of meat is to make up for lack of enough catfish. Catfish used to be very expensive (before the days of fishponds and fish farming) so large families added beef and other meats so they didn't have to spend too much on catfish for the whole family. Dry fish is a complete no-no. Remember, this Ofe Nsala is soup from the riverine areas of Anambra state. Fishermen catch the fish and bring it home for Ofe Nsala. Can you catch dry fish from the river? The answer is no. Can you get beef and goat meat from the river? No.
Do not fear, when I tell you a recipe has an authentic taste, try it first, if you don't like it, then you can keep looking for the recipe that hits the right cords with your tastebuds. Yes, I have the most traditional and authentic Nigerian tastebuds so if I tell you a Nigerian meal has an authentic taste, believe me. I get paid and flown around the world to go and confirm the authentic tastes of meals in Nigerian restaurants! Just like I told you that the only peppersoup ingredient you need is EHU, lots of people have been enjoying the authentic taste of pepper soups that was lost to the so called pepper soup mix.
All these trying to alter a recipe before you have prepared and tasted the one you saw will rigmarole you into analysis paralysis. 😅😅😅 So bad that you doubting Thomas will never get around to preparing and enjoying the meal with others. PREPARE IT FIRST then we can talk about your observations and how we can tweak the recipe afterwards.
😆😆😆
Waaala! Sister Flo you're too much. Laura from France.
Flo. Thanks for this write up. I argue with people that nsala is different from white soup. You made it exactly like my mums
Flo Chinyere I did not see you put uziza nuts or leave
Which one is ehu?
I am a Zulu woman married to an Igbo man. I had this soup when we visited Nigeria last year. It was made by my mother-in-law. I was pregnant then and oh my word, it is the best Ofe Nsala I have ever tasted and had. As we live here in the UK, it can be tough to find the ingredients but where there is a will, there is a way. Will definitely make this dish as it is so simple to make once you have the ingredients 👌🏾
Is it only padded yam someone will use for the ofe nsala
Tell your younger sister to come and marry me. I will teach her how to make it. My mom taught me how to make lot of things before she passed away

Iam from the northern part of our country,but this is my favourite Eastern Dish. My friends cook it and send it to me but now I can make it myself.
Thanks so.much Flo.
My granny makes this soup with local breed chicken and it's Superb! Thank you for this recipe ma'am
One of the reasons i love aunty Flo's videos is the simplicity and originality of the ingredients. Not what we see on Instagram these days.
Am a Yoruba woman but I've loved this video like wetin, it's mouthwatering 🥰🥰
I love the way u give details in cooking, I feel like I’m in the kitchen with my mum. U give reasons for every little scope u use in preparation and I love it! I dont really subscribe but I have to. I love food too
I love your voice. You sound like a typical African mom.
Hahaha 😁
I actually liked and subscribed due to her humorous act and unique way of teaching... mixing Igbo with English
You're just so funny sis, Well-done 👍
I just love you Flo! Thanks for the great recipe, can’t wait to try
Cannot wait to visit my Mother's Land to learn more about Nigerian cooking!
I'm not an Igbo, but I will like to test this offensala when I arrived in Nigeria 🇳🇬. Insha Allah
And i will prepare a delicious one for you
Nigerian food is a such a beautiful labor is love, full of nutrients- vitamins, and minerals plus love, patience, strength, and dedication. As an American with Nigerian roots, it makes me so happy to find these recipes and use them! Thank you for sharing them Flo! You are most loved and appreciated! ♥️♥️♥️
She don com again o! 😁😁😁👌👌👌💖💖💖 I am yoruba but I love ibo food die😂😂😂
We love you too for living our foods
With all due respect the right term is IGBO not Ibo
Also the word Igbo is a proper noun, and the word Igbo, should be started with a capital I at all times.
Cheers
@@emiliarose18 Thank you for informing them. I am tired of the people saying and writing "Ibo" especially igbos that stupidly join in it bc they feel it makes them to be ajeebo.

I'm cooking nsala this weekend❤💃
Hey Flo, thanks for your video. Catfish is insanely expensive here (more than a tenth of what minimum wage workers make a month per fish). Never tried ordering one tbh and looked it up to recreate this recipe. Probably some other recipe of yours for me.
Your explanation is A1!!! I also love that you’re adding Igbo language and their meaning for those of us that don’t understand.
I’d try this soup this weekend 😎😎
Her explaination is another high level 😆💕💯
Thank you for this beautiful recipe❤
i’ll definitely try this recipe it looks scrumptious
I’m not Igbo and I’m not even sure I’ve eaten this before but I’m definitely cooking it. Someone told me about “white soup” and I searched and found you. Forget the in-laws, watch this space ❤️
Yeah, Ofe Nsala is a joyful treat. It's one of my favorite soups (it and a properly prepared Egusi soup and also Okro soup are my three favorite soups) 🤤
As onye Anam mu bu, I'm giving you a massive thumbs up. Though I'm not sure of the part of Anambra you are from but you finish work by keeping it real and unadulterated. Making people to understand the differences between ofe nsala and ofe ose (aka pepper soup)
Easiest recipe of nsala soup I have ever seen 🥰🥰😍
Flo this ofe nsala is on point. You make cooking food so easy. Thank you so much for sharing.
