I am in the UK i feel like crying miss my home town in Anambra state and watching flo's videos just takes me back to my childhood. when we travel from lagos to the village for christmas.
You really make us laugh! You're a real cultural ambassador! We love your authenticity and your respect for your family members (the way you angle your camera on them) May God keep blessing you and your work! You're a sister to many!
Growing up in lagos when you see a goat or cow tie in a neighbours compound you know something is going down just not sure when,but when you start to see the big,big pots you know it's tonight.....l have a feeling we are washing away the healthier part of bitterleaf somehow,the bitter content of the leaf is probably what makes the leaf.Just me thinking out loud here.Seeing cocoyam makes me happy,l was beginning to think it's getting extinct for lack of coverage,nobody talks about cocoyam anymore. Why?Cocoyam is one of the healthiest superfood out there,much healthier than potatoe,l love it roasted as a kid.What are you celebrating,or just happy to be alive?😂Sending you love and light flo,stay safe as you enjoy the motherland..Thank you.
Chai your narration of how to tell the stage at which the ceremony is at is giving me life. 😂🤣😂🤣 I love cocoyam especially the one i like to refer to as tiger cocoyam. For bitterleaf, the meal won't be edible abeg. In this case the nutrient has to go. If one really needs it then a smoothie is the way to go but in a meal? No, the bitterness needs to go. This is still part of the cooking for the funeral.
I miss that raw bitterleaf so much. When I was back home in Nigeria, I would wash it just once and drink the juice. Did that a few times every month and for years I never had stomach problems. I love bitterleaf and I love bitterleaf soup, it's been my favorite since I was a kid
You are right. I do that even with the dry bitter leaves sent to me from Nigeria. After the first wash off of sand and dirt, I boil and drink the water. And afterwards I make soup with the leaves.
Onugbu cooked in a pig pot like this especially during events have this unforgettable taste.😋 The lady is just packing the ingredients very generously into the pot. No shaking!
This soup will be so sweet,learnt something new today..Flo thanks for all this update, you inspire my cooking... Because of you,I now make the best stew...
In my part of anambra state, it's called ite ona. My best soup. Thanks my dear for taking me back to the old days when my grandmother will cook it for us the grandkids
My sis Flo u remain the best YT best cook as far as I'm concern. I love watching ur content, u encouraged me to take my channel serious ,though I hv never seen u, but I'm glad u inspired me. Yummy yummy soup, nwafor Igbo ka iwu❤️❤️❤️
Ndi Nnewi are so proud of their onugbu soup. No we will not compete with Ndi Agulu. Let me continue to enjoy the video. Biko can I get a plate of soup sent via Bluetooth 😍?
Una "prouding" too much abeg. 😂😂😂 Make una leave this one for us. Chibuike you are the IT specialist so connect the Bluetooth and collect as much as you want o..
This pot is called ite igwe ... my late grandma of blessed memory has it , and foods cooked with this pot is the most sweetest 🙄🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️🏃🏼♀️. Mama Louis anywhere you are I miss you ❤️❤️. Come and see your kind of pot o 😂😂😂
I haven’t seen oh for a long time now 😋the ones we cook here cannot be compared to this properly cooked traditional one😋😁 chai this soup is what we make visit Nigeria soon. this really looks delicious and very inviting😋
This is very good...in Salone we cook it with egusie...now I have learnt another method .. adding grounded raw cocoyam instead of egusie...I will definitely try this ...it looks very yummy...thanks for sharing....
Omo😪😪... I’ve already eaten the soup with my eyes 😩😩.... See soup naaa very pleasing to the eyes and must be delicious 🤤... I’m craving for it already 🥰... I’m from Akwa ibom state and I was very happy when you said our soup is universal 😍😍🥰... Thanks 😊... I can’t wait to come back to Nigeria ooo😩😩
Anambra people make the best occasional bitter leave soups with outstanding traffic in the whole of Eastern Nigeria. I so much enjoyed this soup while growing up in Onitsha and their ogili or ogiri for the soup is simply the best!
Wait, my husband said his Enugu state bitter leave soup is the best. Am confused, anyway I love it, so maybe I will try the bitter leave soup from Anambra.
This is how my husband cooks all his igbo soups and it comes out a hit every time. Adds all ingredients at once and move on, while I do "ndi oyibo" style😂 step by step😇.
Nne eeh, thanks for sharing. This looks yum yum, though you know I don't eat it ☹️☹️☹️, but I prepare it for my family. My husband's people best soup😄. This is exactly how my mum taught us to cook it. And this Ite Igwe is everything. It just took me back to my igba nkwu. That was the last day I saw this pot. The food cooked with it is😋😋😋😋😋😋.
I have the pots. It was inherited from my late mom. 2 big ones and the one used for frying plus the long spoons long wooden stick and spider web for frying. I loveeeeee cooking with them whenever the need arises. 😊😊😊😊 Looks yummmmmmmmmmm To help wash the soot off after cooking , it is rubbed all over with a thick coat of palm oil and detergent like omo, before cooking, It washes easier afterwards.
I also experience that with a caterer when cooking large pot of vegetable soup, she added everything at once. I think this trick works best for large pot of soup because of it cooking time.
Brilliant cooking session! Ogiri is similar to the smelly European blue cheese, an acquired taste. I laughed throughout the video when you warned people from Nnewi not to moan about how the soup was being prepared and that the process had nothing to do with vehicular manufacturing!🤣Also how the last pieces of stock fish was the receipt to prove that it was added to the dish!😋You guys should adopt me so I can relocate to your village.
Fresh bitterleaf and cocoa yam, omg! Sissy Flo, how is grandma. Please let her know that I am praying for her and greetings to all of your family this holiday.
The sound of the pounding in the background is everything 😊 I miss villa oo Wow, the oil must be really fresh too Lol, different people cook differently. Just like we never use coco yam to thicken Oha soup in my house. See ogiri oo🤣 “ogwu Ofe” okwu agwulanu
I respect the fact that you were humble enough to let them cook their own way without trying to use the fact that you are a food blogger to want to coach them or disagree with how they were cooking it... Some other person in your shoes would have been tempted to want to show off that they can do better.... My wife and I na so we dey do to each other when cooking.... Lol.... If she is cooking and I am in the kitchen na so I go dey Wan coach her to do it my way and she is not having it.... She does thesame to me as well when I am cooking in the kitchen.... Lol
Oh wow Flo,really love all your village vlogs. But this bitterleaf soup eh,chai,I am swallowing saliva here o. God bless you for taking us along everything and thank God your shoulder/ elbow is getting better
Greetings, so this is the real butter leaf soup I see in the Nollywood movies oh. I hope one day I will go to Nigeria I try this soup. Thank you for showing us. Your sister from costa Rica, central america.
You are doing great. I watched you documentary and saw many places in Igbo land. That is fantastic and very educative too. The cooking part is basic. Ahead ahead.
Memories. Growing up, we used to cook on wood fire and the pots had to be laced with clay on the outside to prevent the pot getting burnt on the outside (messy to touch)
This is almost the way I cook mine apart from Stockfish I cook fish cos I use cord the hardest part. I put ogiri same time i put ede. This soup prepared with ite pot will sure taste delicious. Wow I have learnt adding some Stockfish and crayfish at last.
She added the head last because it scatters easily. That hard cod needs to go into the pot two days earlier ooo 😂 Always surprises me how the head of fish that is so hard can be that soft.
Aunt flo I'm salivating already, I'm just thinking of fufu and pounded yam to go with this delicious delicacy. Aunt Flo please where is your village?. I can't come and be dreaming this soup. I Want to eat it life .
Village life has no comparison to be sincere. Everything natural and fresh. You can imagine that fresh bitterleaf! Chai! American emem aru!!!
I am in the UK i feel like crying miss my home town in Anambra state and watching flo's videos just takes me back to my childhood. when we travel from lagos to the village for christmas.
