bitter leaf is very tasty. Especially if a tiny bit of bitterness is left in. |

I love bitter leaf, sadly my husband is averse to it. I heard that some people remove the bitterness by parboiling the leaf. Is this possible? I only know about washing it thoroughly to remove the bitter taste. To y'all that don't like bitter leaf, you are missing. Try bitter leaf sauce with boiled yam ![]() ![]() ![]() |

My dad always asked for it to be blended into a drink. He then drinks it and asks us[children] to drink it, saying it was for good health. Its real bitter but not that bad. |
Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by dominique(f): 2:02pm On May 16, 2009 |
BenHundred: my dad used to make us drink it too, it was real nasty ![]() |
Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by dani1luv: 2:34pm On May 16, 2009 |

Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by Ejadamen(f): 4:05pm On May 16, 2009 |
No one answered my question, can bitter leaf be parboiled to remove the bitter taste? |
Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by BenHundred(m): 5:53pm On May 16, 2009 |
Whatever. |
Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by dominique(f): 7:15pm On May 17, 2009 |
benhundred, you don't have to be nasty, the guy was just asking a question. @ejadamen, yeah you can parbiol the leaves to remove the bitterness, i normally squeeze it out. |
Re: I Love Bitter Leaf(ewuro) by Ejadamen(f): 8:53pm On May 17, 2009 |
