The first method is the best....

[@Rebecca-uf3fn]

Thanks for this tips, the first time i cooked it my husband could not eat it due to the bitterness because i used the washing method but i didn’t wash it for long tho, i will definitely try this method.

[@empressteephakitchen]

Please try this. You and your husband will definitely enjoy the soup 🍲

[@blessedgoldmbah-xt1pl]

Perfect and easy

[@chikabrown]

Well done dear 👏. My mum taught me this method during my marriage introduction and it's time saving

[@empressteephakitchen]

Thanks for watching

So she was allowing you do the hard way all your life at home to deny you the soft life 😂

Thank you for the video. The baking soda would deplete the B Vitamins form the leaves. It would be best to use the tedious method of washing the leaves 5 to 7 times to remove the desired amount of bitterness. Enjoy

[@empressteephakitchen]

Wooow. We need all our vitamins intact oo
Thanks for the tip.

Nice video Can i use potash instead of baking soda ?

[@empressteephakitchen]

Potash and baking soda are used interchangeably, but I have never tried to use potash for bitter leaf before.
I'll say, try it and see if it works

[@GapEpilogue]

You put some vegetable oil so it will not boil over

[@empressteephakitchen]

Wow. I will definitely try that next time I'm washing bitter leaf. Thank you

[@emmanuellaakonnorbea7154]

Will the bitterness go without adding baking soda?

[@empressteephakitchen]

It's the baking soda that makes the bitterness go away. If you are not adding baking soda, then you will have to use the old method of washing severally to make the bitterness go away

[@idiaemokpae2343]

The first method is the best. That's what our forefather was doing, no need adding chemical to bitter leaf it spoiled the natural taste bitter leaf is medicinal, as for me I don't wash out the whole bitterness totally before cooking with it. Everyone to their taste anyway

[@chukwuwikebartholomew9259]

Omo
I don't think there's anything fast about this method

[@kogsysugarcraftcenter8252]

New method I will be trying this. Also I like a tinge of bitterness. Guess I will boil for less time.

[@empressteephakitchen]

Yes ma'am. You can boil for less time if you want it to be a little bitter. Thanks for watching.

[@jayneizuka6848]

ar u sure this new method will nt spoil d taste of bitter leaf soup

[@empressteephakitchen]

No, it doesn't change the taste of the soup.

[@chidubemwisdomrock7532]

You waist people's data. Everyone knows how to pick and cut; how do you remove the bitters fast

[@lillianmbaserah5995]

I don't. Not all of us are from your country.
