dontbothermuch:

I enjoyed watching it & I just subscribed to your YouTube channel. Thanks

I was thinking about the salt, people with high blood pressure might not be comfortable with that.

Thank you so much.
The salt can be reduced to it's barest minimum.

greypencils:
From the way I put my thoughts across, you would know that's not my intention. I am a very detribalized Nigerian and I have a lot of Igbos as friends and it has always been a source of banter between us. Why do Igbos have an aversion for oil? I am asking with a very church mind.

The Igbos add pepper and oil to meals but in moderation. Variety is the spice of life. We can never all be the same.

Getsaved:


Madam thank you so much for teaching us this and many more, may God bless, increase and protect your family. If i finally connect with the right person for marriage I will recommend your post and youtube link to her. I pray I find one. God bless

Surely you will find. Always maintain a positive mind towards marriage. We always attract what we focus our attention long enough on.

Thank you so much. I really appreciate.

greypencils:
I'll do that when next I cook.

Better no go kill yourself with oil o. My hand no dey this one.

greypencils:
Ok forget soup. Normal beans to add oil go dey hard una. We cook our beans with lots of oil, you guys don't.

Too much oil is not really healthy.

Justiceleague1:
White soup!! No way.... Never having soup not reddish with red oil!!!!

A trial might convince you.

pocohantas:

I like oil. If I am to warm any left over food, I rather use oil and very little water. Lots of Yorubas do this, but you guys don't. Oil dey fear una.

Okay. Keep warming your food with oil. As in, I should warm my oha soup with oil? Lol!

gloryhomemaker:

Sigh! What to do? We Yorubas love oil.

pashiano:
The face of the soup is nice and appealing, good job overall. but the main seasoning in Ofe nsala, (the Anambra way) would have be an Ogiri Igbo(the one wrapped in papers) not Ogiri okpei.

I have always used Okpei for Nsala instead of Ogiri Igbo.

We usually use Ogiri Igbo for Ofe Ora and Ofe Onugbu.

But I will explore Ogiri Igbo in Nsala to know the difference for myself.

pocohantas:

Me, I don't know O. But soup wey no get oil no dey go for my throat. It's like I am eating swallow with leaves. It is oil, that turn those leaves into soup.

greypencils:
One day here on nairaland, we would discuss the Igbos dislike for oil and pepper when cooking. Any soup without oil and pepper is a no for me, no matter how you cook it. I might eat it, but I can't enjoy it.

Try this one and know if you will still maintain your stance.

bonnyhope:


Are you single?

I want to pay your bride price

No nah. I dey husband house with plenty children

Okay…

AngelicBeing:
Hian, bride price ke, like seriously, she is married with Children

Thank you Angelicbeing.

WhatCanIsay:


It's like you have never eaten well pounded yam.
This your statement is like asking if eating akpụ won't feel like eating abacha.

Foods from the same source both totally different based on ways of preparation.

@the chef, I prefer ogiri to okpei for the soup.

I will try out Ogiri Igbo for Nsala next time. We have always used Okpei but no harm in exploring.

Thank you.

Comradegood:
Before using catfish to cook try pour hot water on it. It washes the dirty draw draw water out of the skin

You are right. It's well detailed in the video.
Thank you.

That's life my sister. We can never satisfy everyone.

Nigerians complain a lot. The other day Nlders said she puts too much oil. Today you say no oil. When you cook your own, add am one bottle of oil abeg.

I know myself, I'll still add oil to the ofe Nsala when I cook it.

yusufmurry:
Pls is there anyone of your younger sissy not married.

gloryhomemaker:

As in ehn. They almost crucified you the other day for oil. Today o e is looking for oil inside nsala. Maybe you would serve him his own with stew.

djmickymouse:



You are a good cook, but you over spice ooo, this is the modern ofe nsala, normally you no go use fresh fish and chicken together traditionally, and that oziza leaf and him brother just takes away that simplicity ofe nsala is known for, Native Chicken, yam, pepper, salt and Maggi is enough recipe for traditional ofe nsala and yes I'm from Aguleri

Nwannem nwoke onye Aguleri.
Memories of my father driving us to come get fresh fishes from Aguleri back in the days especially during iji periods.

I prefer fresh fish for Nsala with native chicken. My sweet mouth no start today ooo

Its Utazi leaves not Uziza. It tastes so nice in Nsala. Mixing the slight bitter taste of Utazi with the sweetness of the yam and pepper is everything.

Kurutinto:


Pls how do u wash your fresh/cat fish to remove those slimmy things

Soak with hot water (not boiling hot) and salt for 5 minutes and wash off the slimy part.

All details in the video.

Oil inside nsala soup? You are disrespecting the soup if you add oil. �

Acidbath:
Nice, it will be tasting like pepper soup cause of the uda.

Just a little Uda less than a stick depending on the length of the Uda. The taste is silent but still there.

Malory:
Disgusting. I weep for your husband.

You’re heart is dark.; Not like I’m surprised

The condiments already told me how great the soup would be, what do you mean by hard chicken

Clinghton:

Hard chicken like native chicken like cockerel. Not the soft chicken we use for Sharwama
