Thanks for sharing your knowledge! My question is why can’t you just use the fermented cornmeal straight up? Why do you have to put it through the strainer? I already have akamu powder but it is not sour (fermented) enough for me so I thought if I just soak it for 2-3days, I can use it. Thanks for for your help!
If one have access to fermented corn that would be great. You have to put it through the strainer because you want to remove the shift as cornmeal isn't akamu powder it contains the shift of the corn. Some akamu powder are merely cornstarch like custard, didn't go through the right process to be qualified as Ogi/Akamu. I am not sure about fermenting non fermented Ogi powder. You can try it and see how that work. Thanks hope my answer is helpful
Not for the powdered Corn meal. Except if you didn'thave time to blend and sieve it after 3 or 4 days. You can change the water to prevent it from smelling.
Thanks for this great idea, I will try mine this weekend
