My dear Uziza is a specie of black pepper. Uziza (Piper guineense) is the African specie of black pepper(Piper nigrum) seen in Asia and the Mediterranean. For instance we have white yam(Diocorea rotundata) species from Venue and Abakaliki and they are different we also have D.alata, D.bublifera, D.dumenterum etc. The leave of P.guineense and P nigrum are the same but the seeds of P.nigrum is slightly bigger. Thanks. From a humble Food Scientist/Technologist.
I'm from Akwa-Ibom,my one and only ify,I love this very Episode... thanks for sharing...uyayak is not bitter when it is boiled in water and taken as tea...
Prekese has many values,, it's a good herb especially to women with health issues like infection, fibroid etc.same thing with uziza and ehuru.They're here in Ghana.Ghanians use them so we'll.and many others.They also have good health benefits.Africa is highly blessed honestly
I use all the local ingredients except Aiden fruit. I will try to use it one of these days. I love the aromas and flavours from the local seasoning. Including nchanwu (scent leaves), curry leaves, utazi and uda.
Ehuru smiles so so good, the first time my late mum showed me this spice was in making ose oji, native version of Nutella. It tastes and smells amazing. I was just waiting for crayfish as well 😂. For my native rice and stew, I toast it on low heat to bring out the aroma. Hmmmmm courtesy of my late mum 🤗😍
Uyauya……. My people call it oshisho I love the aroma. I am Igbo being eating it since childhood now in my early 40’s. My friend and sister just made a new discovery 😂, she added this to unripe plantain porridge…… the aroma and taste is out of this world 🥰😁
Your description on how to get the best flavour out of your Eru by frying it with your palm oil and onions hit home for me. It reaffirmed why I follow all your social media handles. Keep it up mama you are doing great❤❤❤. Also, red looks great on you. Keep rocking red color. ❤
It's funny how I think my food isn't at its best yet, even though everyone that tastes it thinks it tastes so good. Ify has just confirmed for me that I dey cook 💃💃🤸🤸. Because I am familiar with all the ingredients and use most of them in almost all my dishes. Even so, the technique she uses that changes the game. Kudos to you Ify. I really wish I could meet you one day. You be my cooking twin sister from another tribe and religion 😂😂. Also calabash nutmeg becomes easier to remove from the shell when you roast it first. After roasting, you can remove without biting 😊 and you don't need to roast after removing the shell again
There are some leaves too that are specially used as ingredients. Leaves like scent leaves and curry leaves. These are also game changers when used in the appropriate setting, if you know what I mean.
Thanks so much Chef Ify for this secret. 😊 You're 'the lady in red'; red sits well on you. ❤ 2 questions though; can all the seeds be blended together for use? How long can they be stored and how? Good morning and enjoy your worship service. Happy Father's Day to all our Fathers on this platform starting with our Chef's Oga 😊.
