Easy Way To Prepare Catfish Pepper Soup

Image
Catfish pepper soup can also be called point and kill. It  is one of Nigerian’s most popular evening recipes. I have been putting this away for a very long time because of the complexity of the recipe. I had planned to make this recipe even before the launch of the “Easy guide to delicious Nigerian Foods”, one of the best products ever made in the Nigerian Kitchen. Catfish pepper soup (point and kill) is the most popular fish pepper soup in Nigeria. We also have cow tail peppersoup,  goat meat pepper soup  and several others  Recipes in Nigeria . I like Nigerian foods to the point that I find it difficult to cope in a foreign environments. Well, I think this is justifiable, I have been making Nigerian foods right from my eleventh birthday. I think the first food I ever made was  vegetable soup  with cow liver, my dad insisted and I had no option but to obey. Below is the image of catfish pepper soup, the popular point and kill peppersoup tha...

HOW TO MAKE AN AWESOME ZOBO/LEAVE DRINK 100% NATURAL!!!!!!!!

Image
 You have absolutely nothing to lose but so much to gain for taking a chilled glass of zobo Nigerian drinks. The health benefits are immeasurable, although this depends on the ingredient you used while preparing it. I would personally recommend just natural ingredients if you can find them; I use them when I can find them. Here we are going to do it just the way Mama Iyabo does it. You may want to read the comment below before you actually try this zobo recipe, few persons experienced soured taste when they used lots of pineapple, they agreed that pineapple flavor is better than actual pineapples when it comes to making zobo drink. And I agree. The plate above contains ginger, about 3 fingers of ginger would do. The ginger inset would be enough for 5 cups of zobo leaves then the joccy pinapple flavor by the side of the plate (use just one sachet and add it when the zobo is boiled and filtered). This would be enough to make 2-3 litres of zobo juice drink. By the end of th...

FOOD CULTURES IN NIGERIA

Image
Nigerian food culture differs from different group to another; I have always cited the issue of multiple ethnic groups in Nigeria as the reason for the large number of foods eaten in Nigeria.There are over two hundred and fifty different tribes in Nigeria so it is expected that each of these tribes would have different food culture, although there are always a little difference from one tribe to another. This page is about Nigerian food customs and culture, you need to know a little about all of this if you are dating or married to a Nigerian. In a Nigerian home the men are expected to provide money for all the foods eaten at home while it is the responsibility of the woman to purchase and prepare these foods for the family, the only exception is when the wife I gainfully employed. Then she might employ the service of a house help. About twenty five to thirty percent of Nigerian women are full house wife while a bulk of rest are engaged in petty trading or civil service, only...
