    Hi, my name is Emir, I just wanted to let you know that a few days ago in college we had to study Nigeria as an English speaker country, and thanks to your channel I learned how to prepare chin chin for my entire classroom and they were delighted! ❤ thanks for sharing all these fabulous recipes!

      Rebecca Ayers well done for always getting it right. ❤ I am hopeful that with time, Nigerian food ingredients will become more available everywhere there are even a few Nigerians. I say this because about 10 years ago we could not buy a single Nigerian ingredient here but today, even regular supermarkets stock some of them. Keep it up preparing these.

    experiment and experience matters too

    This is how to cook good bitter leaf soup. Your youtube on bitter leaf soup is the best I have seen. You can also use corn flour and corn starch make it as if you are doing semo. Use it as thicklng and it appears as if you use Coco yam. Bitter leaf is Igbo soup mainly from Anambra state. I started cooking bitter leaf soup when I was 10 years old.

    That was a great video. To be honest with you guys, there was a saying that one man's food could be another man's poison. Also, our taste buds varied when we taste stuff. What you like, your kids might not like it. E.TC. Why I said this was the arguement of type of meat to use or not. The old fashion way of bitter leaf soup with type of meat was what mrs. Flo used. But to be honest guys, you can use chicken, and Turkey meat to cook. I promised you, it will come out great cos I am a good cook and I used them to prepare my bitter leaf soup. But for the onion?? Capital No to my bitter leaf soup. Thanks.

      The recipe is frozen in time and is not elastic with modifications. Onugbu soup is elevated highly among its enthusiasts :anything short of the original recipe is sacrilege. Diaspora are forgiven because of dearth of some ingredients.
      If you use iru and adhere to the correct method you'll get something nice but different.

      That's correct Chinelo. Onions throws off the taste of the soup.

      @anoncollins8226 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      oluwashade opeyemi because onions are too sweet for this soup. Opposite ends of the tastebud spectrum

      Fish is too sweet and mellow in a way that depresses the spirit of the soup. It's not like Nsala you can use fish and chicken to elevate.

    I vote for more ingredients available in Europe ! no cud , no cocoyam , no this , no that , even had to spell the names of the products ! OMFoodnes :) too bad but i'll make this one day ;)) , looks delicious !

    • @FloChinyere
      @FloChinyere  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Vicky please remind me exactly where you live in Europe. All these ingredients are available in the major cities of Europe where lots of Africans and South Americans live. Cod, cocoyam. Ogiri will be a hard one to find because it is very traditional. I have successfully used Quaker Oats as alternative to cocoyam in this soup. Watch this video to see how I used it: th-cam.com/video/Tw1ZjDFJfAM/w-d-xo.html
      For bitterleaf, you will mostly find dry ones outside Nigeria. I soften it first using this process before adding it to the soup: th-cam.com/video/ikSdTPbXncU/w-d-xo.html

    • @daviduba5658
      @daviduba5658 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Don’t mind her, pls feel free to use onions , curry, thyme whatever you use to normally cook or boil your meat. You can even add giant African snails or periwinkles/ shell fish , or prawns , infact whatever rocks ur tastebuds. There is no hard and fast rule as per its preparation, the most essential thing is the bitter leaf and of course no tomatoes or bell peppers.
