You aren't a bonafide Nigerian if you do not know what Crayfish is. Crayfish is one of the staple Nigerian spices. Nigerians would even sometimes incorporate ground crayfish into the first solid foods of their babies because of the high level of nutrients it contains. Crayfish can be added to virtually all Nigerian meals. Rice, beans, eggs, stew- just name it.
Peppersoup is one of the most delicious Nigerian foods. It is a delicious, highly nutritious one-pot dish that can be taken in any kind of weather, all year round. It is a fusion of toasted homemade spices, herbs, peppers, deeply-flavored broth and some very good skin-on, bone-in meat or fish. Nigerian pepper soup has a mix of nutty, warmth, bitter, woodsy and flavourful tastes.
I love Iru so much. One main Nigerian food I would always order for, living in the diaspora is Iru. Known as Locust Beans in English, Iru is one of the main foods that make a Nigerian food Nigerian indeed. I love the way it changes the taste of my vegetables and the smell is Heaven to me😂😂😂 (This is a highly contentious statement for many, I know. Haha)
