Everything about this seed teaches you about patience !

Op can you post any prove that this fruit originated from Igboland? i remember going to the farm very early in the morning while we were younger because we want to pick this fruit and sell the seeds.

Op instead of you to post pictures of the tree so that those who don't know how it looks will know. The tree is very gigantically tall and the fruits can only be gotten when they fall from the tree

Part of the oriki of Ibadan people is "omo a je oro sun" Oro is Bush mango. The seed is known as apon in Yoruba language. The soup derived from it is known as obe apon.

They thought it was mango and realized the seed was different
Just like groundnut soup
Delicious

Ogbono is not ugiri.
Uguri is edible but u can't eat ogbono.
Nd dy seed of ogbono when used in cooking soup draws a lot while uguri doesn't.
Ogbono tree grows mainly in the forest but u can see uguri tree in many homes.

I disagree with you. The name is ugiri in Imo state. The seed in inside is the ogbono. My family currently have ugiri farm (Agriculturally improved) Wild ones still exist.

If you go to Kogi State especially Idah you will see a lot of the trees. It is also in Yoruba land, nobody can lay claim to it.

Originated from igboland

Funny question

Where did yam originate from?

thatigboman:
Op, ugiri is not ogbono in my town. They are different trees. U can eat the fruit of ugiri but ogbono fruit is inedible. Ogbono draws when used to prepare soup, but ugiri doesn't draw that much.

You don't know what you are saying. Ugiri is ogbono, ogbono is ugiri

They must bring tribalism into everything Nigerians! Reference to OP.

There is commercial type that can produce within 5 year's.

Bush Mango

endsarrrs:

I don't eat that shit called ogbono soup mehn

Hmm, you don't know what you are missing.

Dyfynezz12:

You can eat both. My family has it in one of our farm. It starts producing from five year if you handle it properly. The commercial type is a bit bitter, the test improves as it ages.

OBIDIENTNAIJA:
Good.
Very delicious delicacy when properly prepared. The killer combo is when you add dried fish to it. Fresh fish too is a combo on its own together with beef.

Seconded!

Never knew it was from this fruit.

Op you dont eat ogbono fruit . you can eat ugiri friit but difnatly not ogbono fruit . once you bite ogbono friut you will drop it because its better and tirstless infacy it gum ur teeth but ugiri has friut kind of tirst . ogbono tree is different from ugiri tree. Am not sure you have seen ogbono tree because if you you have seen it you will know the diffrent between the two. Then for the seed. The seeds re not same as well . ogbono seed back has brown color as it shown on pic here but ugiri lighter like wood color at the back .

. You will not realize what you've been missing. As yoruba boy, that's one of my best soups

illicit:


Irvingia gabonensis commonly called Bush mango

Dika nut (English)

Ogbono (Igbo)

Oro (Yoruba)

The fruit is actually Ugiri in Igbo. But the nut and its product is called Ogbono

It is not tribalism but enlightenment.
Nobody can lay claims on natural occuring things that could have germinated there by dispersion. I won't be surprised if this fruit has it origin outside africa.

Corrected

Everybody won't like the same thing, this is also some people favorite soup.

Uyomiya:
Do you know the name of this fruit?

In Igbo it is called ugiri and the seed is what is used to make ogbono soup you enjoy.

You can eat the back just like apple the the seed is dried and blended for ogbono soup.

Is God not wonderful?

Ibadan omo a'joro sun!

Op you lie. You must be an indomie generation trying to measure up. Ugiri and Ogbono are completely two different species belonging to one family. U can eat Ugiri as fruit and also use the seed to make soup but it's not the same as Ogbono.

You guys lack simple decorum. I wonder if your education has any impact on the way you relate with one another. If you don't eat something, ignore or simply say you don't eat it. There's something you eat that some other people don't eat. That's how life is. You don't go about calling other people's food shit simply because you don't eat it. You may think you sound cool or special, but anyone that hears you say that would easily conclude you're not well educated.

No be everything dem de Sha use as soup. D Bleep is this
