Please next time don't forget Asaba, and some parts of igbo speakers in Delta states because they are also igbos, their igbos are more understandable than Ebonyi state people thank you 😊 ❤
Ofor is not used to harden the egusi balls. Usu is the powder used to hold the egusi so it doesn't dissolve in the soup. Most times the egusi is squeezes to extract the oil before moulding it into balls.
I'm Glad I Came Across Your Channel. It's Interesting And Educative. I Love The Fact Your Show Casing The Nigerian Culture Through The Different Areas You Visited. I Can't Wait To Try The Rich Man's Soup Some day When I Get A Chance To Visit Nigeria. Kindly Keep The Content Coming. Maybe You Can Also Show The Different Foods Cooked During Different Festivals, E.g. Weddings, Child Dedications, Traditional Dances/ Festivities, etc. Stay Blessed. Keep Going YOU ARE DOING WELL. Much Love.
Am from Ebonyi state and I have never tasted Akparata soup… This shows diversity and beautiful culture, cos am from Edda….. I will definitely ask my Izzi friends to teach me ❤
Your channel is mind blowing. I discovered it today and I’m glad I did. These Igbo meals are amazing. I miss East a lot, you can’t find those ingredients for those meals here. Maybe a few that aren’t fresh but not all, I need to go home 😢. Please visit Isuochi in umunneochi local government area. There a lots of local dishes there. I once spent 3 months there with my grandma of blessed memory, and grandpa years ago after my WAEC; those were one of the best times of my life. Please ask for Osu akidi, Ona, ofe oha, and especially ask for Okpa and Iwu. Iwu is what others call abacha. Maybe because they’re in the middle of Imo, Enugu and Anambra, their dishes are a lot different from other Abia villages and more like that of the closer states.
Achara/Ukazi soup is best cooked with smoked MALE goat meat (for taste and that nkpi smell) and a gourd of palm wine to drink along with....afterwards, you are ready for a short afternoon nap.
You’re doing great work showcasing the Igbo culture and food. A little correction, Adani is NOT part of Omambala…Adani is Uzo Uwani LGA in Enugu State.
I actually thought preparing this was difficult but just noticed that it's quite simple. Gotten a new update. Thanks man, keep up with the good work ❤🎉
That's one of Umuahia's healthy and delicious soups, cos na Cook and finish that same day, as per Ugu d Okra from back of the house, chai, granny recipes are d best
Your great my brother for this video.we the igbos have a loot of food that is why we look different from order ppl. Like English use to say you are what you eat.
Oh wow 🤩, salivating here for all the foods especially that Ofe Owerri 😋 I have never eaten okpa before and from IMO State. We usually eat moi moi which is similar to Okpa. Thanks for educating us and sampling these delicacies!
Okpa and moi-moi may look similar and are cooked in similar ways but they are made of two different primary ingredients of beans (moi-moi) and okpa seeds. However they are both delicious. Okpa is a better stomach stuffer.
Why is it that soup was not prepared in Enugu like all the other states? Pls also check out achicha ( dried cocoyam) and ayaraya (corn and fiofio) in Nsukka, Enugu state
Nice video, well done but that's not how to cook delicious Ofe Ukazi sha, she tried though, Usu is the binder, not Ofo. To get the best of it, oil should be extracted from the Egusi, before cooking. The Egusi and Achara can be cooked together separately, thereby getting a rich-flavoured Achara, due to the ingredients used in preparing the akpuruakpu Egusi. Egusi balls that have been smoke-dried can last for years😋
The title says 5 eastern state, I don’t think Delta state is part of it, Ebonyi was created from other states( Abia and Enugu), so if u understand Enugu and Abia state, then u will definitely understand Ebonyi tooo❤
Hhmm Nigerians 🇳🇬 are very funny 😂people oh I see because of their stew or sauce or soup what ever you people called it, that’s why they always saying Ghanaians 🇬🇭 soup na water water hhhmm I see. But soup should be watery and stew or sauce should be thick or thicker, so why are you some you Nigerians 🇳🇬 always complaining about Ghana 🇬🇭 soup hhmm. In Ghana 🇬🇭 they prepare soup and sauce or stew. And again you can not use the real Gha fufu to swallow stew or sauce. We used fufu to swallow soup Nigerians.
I’m sure Ghana and Nigeria are not in any culinary competition. When I come to Ghana I’ll eat both your soup and stew. Terms are irrelevant. What matters is the food
@@Coffeegirl75 Well, alot of them also accept they are igbo. Those ones accept is enough to work with and should be counted. So because few people reject who they are, for that reason we should distance ourselves from those that accept. No way bro
