Yes It's alcohol. There's nothing to replace it my dear. It is what it is. I had it in the Bahamas islands last year and I longed for it so much I just decided to google how to make it myself.
And I'm breastfeeding too. Lol. Bad mother lipsrsealed

What I do and What you can do is to take it and feed your baby formula instead of breast milk for at least two hours after you take it. (I usually go more than hours just to be very sure). Then after two hours you can breastfeed as normal because that is how long it takes for one drink to completely clear from your system. Unless you over-indulged.

Or you could just buy the mixer. It's piña colada flavored without the alcohol. In fact that's what some bars use with crushed ice and rum to make their piña coladas. I was tempted to buy that but I felt it won't have the kick it supposed to since there's no alcohol in it. Picture below.
:Dy you are not a bad mother....... I personally think craving after having a baby is so real. Lol
Thanks. Will try it over the weekend and let you know. Don't know if I could get this mix, will look for it.

My kinda gal!




You can also make a non alcoholic version i.e virgin colada: just omit the rum! And increase your pinapple juice & coconut cream quantities to make up the volume.

Not quite the same thing as that with rum but hey! Half bread right!


Thanks..... I could try this first but if it doesn't taste real lol I have to use the rim then. cheesy

Look for it in your local Walmart. That's where I got mine. They place it besides the alcohol drinks in the alcohol section.

Please how did you make the egg sauce?

Egg
Spring Onions
Garlic
Ginger
Dried Pepper
Salt
Vegetable oil

*Break your eggs into a bowl
*Grate garlic, ginger, and the bulb of the spring onions directly into the bowl of egg
*Wash the stem of the spring onions well, chop and put into the egg
*Add a pinch of dried pepper, salt and if you like seasoning (knorr etc)
*Whisk thoroughly
*Pour a spoonful of vegetable oil or whatever oil you like in your pan
*Fry

Note: If you are going to use fresh (habanero) pepper, chop it into the eggs before frying.

You can get it from those who sell salad items. Not expensive at all, although it is cheaper in the North sha. The lower part is the onion, while the upper part is the greenish top.

Depending on the size of your onions, you can grate just one bulb, and cut off the slender greenish top from as many of the onions as you want, while keeping your onions to be used in cooking your other meals.

Hope I didn't confuse you sha

Vegetables, melon and eggs. I don't know what they call this kind of soup but I'm enjoying it.
Since its just me, I've tried mixing milk powder with rice, it gave the rice a milky flavor, should try it again. I put flour in beans while on fire, it lathered... hahaha! I know I'm weird, so...

Hello food lovers,

My name is Kemi Oladipo. I recently completed a course on 'Biosafety of plant Biotechnology' at Marche Polytechnic University,Ancona,Italy.

I am currently conducting a survey on the 'Readiness of Nigerians for the commercialization of genetically modified crops in Nigeria'. I am using the social media and other associated entities to share the survey.
I will your support and provide you a medium to express your opinion about genetically modified foods in Nigeria. Please find the link to the survey below.

Kemi

Kemi,

Firstly, let me state that your questionnaire was structured and easy to answer, I also love the topic, it is intelligent albeit futuristic for Nigeria. I completed the questionnaire even though i am in the States. I encourage everyone on this thread/ food section to complete the questionnaire irrespective of location.

It is imperative to note that issues bothered on food/health have severe cultural implications in Nigeria and Africa in extension, especially if commercialization of the product is possible. The bulk of the farmers that produce food crops that support the exploding population in Nigeria reside permanently in the rural areas. Their occupation is guided by cultural beliefs, If commercialization of genetically modified food crops is the goal, the funding agency would have to educate our farmers on the viability of this technology with hopes it is not contradictory to their cultural/ religious belief's.

Secondly, the process involves intensive local research which much be sustainably funded by the government/ private sector. we are not speaking 1-5 years research, we are speaking of 10 years worth of extensive research on "local" food crops.

Genetically modified cultivation of crops requires administrative discipline especially in maintaining stringent regulations that guide the process of modification, Sadly, our dear country is renowned for administrative lapses. Government would have to invest heavily on NAFDAC and other regulating agencies to ensure adherence. The possible effects of non compliance to regulations are devastating, ranging from poisoning, development of new diseases.

I believe the technology would be beneficial for Nigeria especially with well over 200 Million people to feed, however, we have to start now.

Great job

I'm sorry it's coming very late...

Cc: zheemub

Cc: priceless200
Cc: breadplanets

Recipe
1kg flour
3 tablespoons of yeast
250g sugar
100g of butter
2 eggs
Pinch of salt
2 cups of ordinary water
This recipe gives 20 doughnuts

Procedure
1. Combine flour, yeast, sugar, salt, egg and the water together
2. Work the butter into the dough and mix well.
3. This step determines your getting something like the one I made. Transfer the dough to your work surface, now it's time to show your kneading skill. Knead with force.....yes knead vigorously till the texture and the temperature of the dough changes from cold to warm/hot. This can take up to 15 minutes or more.
4. Once you get the warm temp, proceed to cutting the dough into 20 pieces.
5. Dust two big trays with flour.
6. Shape into ball and leave to rise for an hour on the floured trays.
7. After an hour, deep fry on low heat in a big pot and check both sides till both sides are done.

Notes.
If you ask me why cold water was used I might not be able to answer unless I ask my teacher *winks*.
Kneading vigorously helps in activating the yeast. The first time I made this type of doughnuts I didn't knead it very well which didn't make the dough rise very well.
Try and be generous with the flour to prevent the dough from sticking to the tray.
Be sure to fry on low heat to avoid "ijina ako".
If you like sugar on your donuts, sprinkle it on it while it's still very hot.
Debolly please, I need your help, measurement have always been my issue.. Please how many 'g' is derica tomatoes medium cup or tin peak milk.. I am really confused. Let's say I want to measure I kg of floor using this cup how many of it makes one kg, should it be level filled or normal measuring, mound....?thank you.

Am throwing this question to the house most especially those from the north or persons who have experienced this kind of food.
A long way back i saw some kind of hausa food that looks grain but marshy some how and it was used to eat pepper sauce. Its been a long time so I May not be able to describe it appropriately but am looking at this as a substitute for rice.
Anyone one in the house that can help out on this and other naija foods/grains that can be used a a substitute for rice. The food should be affordable for those in the Majority, Please dont mention breadfruit this is not affordable for the masses.
Just like we came up with substitute for tomatoes we can also do same with rice, lets put on our thinking caps!
