How to Make Nigerian Seasoning Cubes

How to Make Nigerian Seasoning Cubes

Jan 16, 2025Elizabeth Yakubu

Seasoning cubes are some of the most important staples in Nigerian kitchens. They add rich flavor to soups, stews, rice, and many other dishes. While store-bought options are convenient, homemade seasoning cubes are fresher, healthier, and free from preservatives. Also, they’re easy to make with natural ingredients you already know and love. Here’s how to make your own Nigerian seasoning cubes at home.

Ingredients 

  • Chicken or Fish Stock
  • Dried Herbs and Spices: Thyme, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, ginger powder, and ground crayfish.
  • Fresh Ingredients: Blended onions, garlic, and fresh peppers (optional).
  • Salt
  • Palm Oil or Vegetable Oil
  • Bouillon Powder or Natural Flavor Enhancers


Instructions

Step 1: Boil the meat or fish with salt, onions, and spices. Once cooked, strain the stock and set it aside. This will be the liquid base of your cubes.

Step 2: Blend fresh onions, garlic, and peppers until smooth. If you prefer a dry mix, skip this step and focus on dried herbs and spices.

Step 3: Combine thyme, curry powder, ginger powder, onion powder, and any other spices you like. Add a bit of ground crayfish for an authentic Nigerian touch.

Step 4: Heat a small amount of oil in a pan. Add the blended fresh ingredients (if using) and fry for a few minutes to release their aroma. Gradually stir in the stock and your mixed spices. Let it simmer until it thickens. Adjust the salt to taste.

Step 5: Once the mixture cools slightly, spoon it into ice cube trays or silicone molds. This helps you portion out your seasoning easily.

Step 6: Place the molds in the freezer until the cubes harden. Once frozen, transfer the cubes to an airtight container or freezer bag. They can last for weeks in the freezer.

  • I never thought I’d need to recover lost Bitcoin. I was always cautious, double-checking addresses and securing my accounts. But one phishing link changed everything. It looked identical to a crypto platform I trusted. Moments after entering my login details, my Bitcoin was gone, sent to an unknown wallet.
    The financial loss was painful, but the helplessness was worse. I knew that blockchain transactions are irreversible, and most forums confirmed my fear: “Once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
    Then I found Morphohack Cyber Service, a recovery team that tracks stolen cryptocurrency, I reached out to them via E-mail (Morphohack@cyberservices . com).
    I was skeptical, but with nothing left to lose, I reached out. From the start, they were clear and professional. They explained their method, tracing the stolen funds across the blockchain to find where they ended up.
    In my case, the Bitcoin had passed through several wallets before arriving at a centralized exchange. Morphohack acted fast, working with the exchange to freeze the assets using blockchain evidence.
    Weeks later, I got the email I didn’t think would come, my Bitcoin had been recovered.

    If you ever face a similar loss, act quickly and contact experts like Morphohack Cyber Services. Their help made the difference between a permanent loss and a second chance.
