    Aunty Flo, this Okazi soup does wonders across Africa. We in the DRC call Okazi leaves FUMBWA. We cook it alone with lots of bush meat, and dry fish, like and use the base of Banga soup ie. The entire juice from palm kernels.
    It's a tedious process, but during my Tradional wedding, we made FUMBWA in honor of my Congolese heritage, and Afang in honor of my Nigerian heritage. This remains my best soup with Loiloi in Nigeria. Thanks for bringing up beautiful memories.
    And yes, I have LIKED the video 😂😂

    Well done Sis for this tantalising soup. Just to mention Afang or akazi is usually washed by the calabar/ akwa ibom before cutting. In fact you can't buy Afang in their market that is not washed. You wash and dry before cutting but for business purposes some of them wash and cut even while it's wet. Afang soup has become so popular now that every one want to eat it and that's why the business women in city markets like Lagos and the rest cut without washing. But no calabar or akwa ibomite will cook this Afang unwashed. This leaf most times comes from Cameroon or deepest forest pls don't cook without washing.

      😂😂😂 I'm laughing because this is not the first time sellers have told me this. But this is the first time I'm buying it from Oyingbo where I had the chance to sample several more opinions. From the sellers to the Akwa-Cross ladies (mostly restauranteurs cos it was early morning) with me at the grinding station to the grinders themselves all laughed at me when I insisted on washing it. They told me, don't worry it's clean, if you insist on washing, buy the leaves, take them home, wash and spread out so the water will dry without the leaves drying (which I found hilarious by the way because there's no way that is possible unless i towel-dry them one by one) then come back, slice and grind because Madam, nobody will grind wet afang for you because it will not come out of the machine"
      These are the words of the very experienced owners of this soup. And I believe them because I can't imagine anybody going through all that especially restaurants that have to cook it everyday. The sellers simply clean the dusty leaves with a piece of cloth and throw out the worst ones. No sand in the soup so that supports their claim that it's sand-free.
      Of course there will be a small percentage of meticulous people doing all that washing and towel-drying but the above is what happens 99% of the time.

      @@FloChinyere the restaurants yes might not wash because the are cooking for business but I lived in akwa ibom and even in their market the will wash in front of you and put it in sack bag and swing to reduce the water then cut and grind in the market. Sis pple like short cut to make money and Nigerians. inhumanity to Nigerians is so much. Honestly if you have ever cooked a sand filled Afang it is horrible but luckily one can get one that is not so Sandi because the soup is quite enticing to cook and not able to eat it. But you cook so well all these Nigerian soups. Weldone

    Afang leaves is washed by the real Ibibios and Efiks. It is usually washed while the leaves are still on the stalks but with alot of care then placed in a sack - the type that is used to pack 50kg rice. The bag is shaken to reduce the water then the leaves are spread on a tray and dried in the sun. When dry the leaves are picked and sliced. Most people do not have the patience to go through this process and do not even know about it.

      The key phrase is "most people". Thanks for confirming because I simply repeated what several akwa cross ladies (most of them restaurateurs) told me at Oyingbo. I used to think it's only restaurants that don't wash but they told me that even homecooks don't, that it's unnecessary sufferhead. 😅 And looking at your own process which is even more tedious than the one they gave me, we can guess how many people do that. Especially in this generation? 😂😂😂

    Our Traditional Afang Soup, looks temptingly delicious😋😊. You just brought back a memory Aunty Flo. Growing up, cleaning of Afang leaves was a very tiring task that we as kids had to do. The Afang leaves was separated into clean and very dirty and my mum would have us clean on napkins leaf by leaf the ones she termed clean while she washed the ones put aside as dirty.

    • @FloChinyere
      @FloChinyere  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I trust you to give me the correct low down. Thank you so much. This is exactly how the sellers and Akwa-Cross women I met at the grinding station described it. The sellers simply discarded the very dirty ones because they told me that washing it is not worth it because the time they will use to perform the washing ritual is enough for them to slice one basket of afang. 😂 Daalu ❤❤❤

    Too much Afang for the quantity of waterleaf you have used. You need tutorials from the Efiks - food Connoisseurs ( from Calabar - Cross River State) on how to cook proper Afang and Edikang ikong. This is a no, no madam.

    You do not re-wash water leaf to remove the slim. No.

      Igbo people call afang leaf okazi and prepare it without water-waterleaf, and it’s called okazi soup. But the thing is igbos and other non-Calabar Nigerians have come to love afang soup proper as well.

    You do not put palm oil before Afang and Waterleaf. That is why your afang does not look real, the way we cook it in Efik Kingdom.

    Flo , how did you cook that okazi that is full of dust without washing it instead you believe what those market women told. Don't you think that soup will be full of sand. Knowing you I was surprised.
    The soup looks good , you and your family should enjoy.
    Remain blessed.

    Yes chyflo,I like the way and style you cook, my husband told my husband that in TH-cam, it's you that I like watching, that I like your style of cooking,he said is bcos your my name sake, I just laughed, for me chy,I wash my slice okazi before pounding and adding it to my soup,yes, whether if it's washed before slicing,I wash, it doesn't change the taste,it remain f okazi that we know, bcos now some of those sellers dump it anyhow,in some market,,I wash pound it or blend it, yes some times I blend it, for me I buy d slice okazi take it home wash, pound or blend before adding it, the taste remain d same, and I use ugu, water leaf and okazi, the three leaves, yes the soup looks take away take away, tantalizing,, your good in cooking dear

    • @FloChinyere
      @FloChinyere  ปีที่แล้ว

      You keep talking about the taste remaining the same. Nobody said it changes the taste nowww ... The ones I bought were actually clean. If you pound the wet ones in a mortar or use a blender, fine. Restaurants don't use those. They use those grinders in the market, and it can't grind wet okazi very well.
      Mehnn that your 3-veg style is a combo of afang and edikang ikong. 😂
