Please ma where can get in Ibadan

[@adeolaolatunji9324]

I grew up with this in the UK. In the 70s. My mum will say its like " Apon". We never used the word Ogbono back then. I argue with a lot of people that yorubaland has a variety of soups. Back the we yoruba dont use dry pepper only to cook soup. We cook a whole pot of hot stew then add okea, Apon etc. Very rich

[@remremdfoodie]

Absolutely. We have a lot of varieties

I told you that your recipes are very beautiful, even though I do not understand the language that you speak. I ate Siri meat in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, from a Nigerian restaurant, and I liked the taste. I searched for the recipe and found your beautiful channel. I wish you success, and I do not know whether the translation will be correct. Or not because I use Google Translate, but I hope you understand what I said

Weldone,this is a good enlightenment, good though 👍

Bestest combo

Am an ijebu girl and this is one of our favorite.Sooo delicious,i think why opeyemi said we dont have soups is because we dont really sell our soups commercially in cafeteria like others thats why some of our many soups are not known by others and some of ours as well. Thanks for this

[@remremdfoodie]

My absolute pleasure. Opeyemi’s statement was just sarcasm. He was also referring to those who think yoruba people don’t have a variety of soups

[@tanimowookusaga4856]

As an Ijebu I was brought up on Bokonisa soup by my grandma. It is more flavourful and delicious than Ogbono soup. I love it very much with Iyan.
