I love liberian soups so much (by watching. Never tasted it) but I don't understand why you guys use souch maggi all the time. Liberians go dey get high bp ooo. D soup looks so good. I'll book myself a plane ticket to Liberia next year by God's grace. I hope i make some friends online before traveling 😆
The soup look delicious. This is one of the first soups of African cuisine that fish was not part of the ingredients. I love that, because I’m not a big fan of fish that has a lot of bones, with heads and tails attached. I watched one young lady from Ghana made chicken soup and they put boney fish in it. I did asked her why she added fish to chicken soup. She said for the flavor. A Lady from Liberia, I’ve only seen her make nothing but soup, at every meal and every time, she has some kind of fish in it and every few bite their picking bones out of their mouths. I can’t enjoy a meal like that. (Please excuse my rant about soups with fish bones) 🙂 Those peppers look like jalapeños peppers to me, but I could be wrong. I did a search for WOLOR, couldn’t find it, except for this video. When you said it makes the soup slippery, I thought that sounded like Okra. I like okra, but try my best to cook it where it doesn’t produce a lot of the slime. Like cutting it up and seasoning it, then baking it. Then adding it to what ever I’m eating. I guess the slime from the okra is an acquired taste. My Ancestor’s came from Africa and I guess, if I grew up there, I would have the same desired taste for things like the Mucilage that okra produces when cooked and fish with bones. Would love to visit Africa one day. But would stay away from fish in soups and soups with mucilage. Thank you for sharing the recipe. I will try it, but I won’t put as much WOLOR powder in it, if I can even find it. What do you normally eat with the soup, something like fufu ?
There are ways you can take the bones out the fish. it will be more work but you still get to enjoy that nice flavor the fish (especially dry fish) has. You can cook the fish separate from the soup then you take your time and take out all the bones. Once the fish is cooked it’s very easy to spot the bones. I personally don’t always add fish because I be too lazy to clean the fish to my liking. So I like using a lot of dry fish which is easier to take the bone out. Once it’s not frozen you can easily open it and just separate the meat from the bones. You might not know but fish adds a really rich taste to the soup. Especially dry fish. You can find Wolor in any Liberian store. I hope I was able to help you and I eat my wolor soup with rice I’ve never tried it with fufu or anything else.
OMG...!!! YUMMY!! 😍😍😍

The reason is, we don't normally cook salt. We preferred Maggie than salt.

What is Wolor made of? I google searched for it and I can’t believe the internet has no information or mention of it.
Looks like ground okra powder

Anaheim pepper. It's really hot so be careful
