I will try to make this one day even though I will probably have to substitute some of the ingredients. A nice post.
Some of the ingredients are not available in your country? Which of them?
The cow skin would be hard to come by. We don't eat that.
The Ogbono (I might find that in a migrant store)
And the Ugu leaves.
Right now most stores are closed due to the pandemic so I will see if I can find them afterwards :)
Okay. Fish, chicken and any kind of meat could serve the purpose of the cow skin 😁
Ok, that give me an idea about what it is like. In Denmark we have plenty if pork skin which we roast, but cow skin is only used for leather. I found ogbono in a Swedish webshop, but haven't bought it yet. I suppose you can't make okbono soup without okbono. Maybe when the quarantines are lifted I can also find some ogbono here in Denmark. I talk with people moved here from Nigeria, maybe next time I can ask if they know where to buy it.
This is how cow skin looks like after been cooked
The ogbono is the main ingredient. That's what makes it ogbono soup
Thanks! We eat pig skin in Denmark, mostly on top of a roast. Looks like this:
Looks sumptuous 😍😍
