You have to be careful with the shombo though, cos it can make your moinmoin too pepperish and spoil everything. I personally don't even like using it for stew jare.

You really got my attention with the cleaning part. You mean when you put the beans into the blender after 3minutes and blend, the beans neither get broken nor bend the blades? Also, d'you add little water to blend at this stage?

From what I see that blender is really good. Did it blend everything smoothly, with no small chunks or beans inside? It looks like a very simple blender but did an awesome job of blending the beans.


Practically all blenders, blend beans perfectly. People are prolly just scared to try them at all.

Pepperish moimoi is a NO....I really wanted to try something else other than tomatoe paste to give my moimoi fine coloring. You have another idea?

I soaked the beans for like 3mins....Poured the beans + the water I used in soaking it into the blender and spinner for less than a minute. The beans got broken but not into tiny pieces that would waste. When I sieved, only the skin came off. No...it didn't bend the blades at all.

I refuse to agree with you ma'am. Not all blender blends beans 'perfectly' well. One stewpid blend I once had couldn't cope with the pressure of blending beans thoroughly.

Ermm, I don't usually send coloring, so long as it tastes good, lol. Buh that's just me. Perhaps, using palm oil instead, would achieve that? I know I prefer the taste of moinmoin with it. Plus, I use just the ata rodo, I don't use tomatoes or the paste.

Using raw palm oil hasn't bin my thing o! Tried it once and wasn't pleased with the taste. Is it okay to heat up the palm oil a little before using it for moi moi?

IMO its only strongly built and rugged blenders that can do moi moi right.

My blender is a rogue mehnnnnn tongue

@Tyconcepts; maybe oo. I think I've once read someone (I think from Dunni's kitchen) heating it up a bit before use. Now that I think of it, shombo gives color to stew, but small small because I know it can get really spicy and messy.

Heating it up should make sense....I would try it with a few cups just in case wink

I'm already scared of using the shombo sef....

Can little shombo give the moimoi a fine look? I'm thinking it has to be many to be beautiful.
