    Instead of potash, use baking soda. Just a little. Also, while you should add iru/egusi/ when it starts simmering, salt and and seasoning powder should go in AFTER you have pulsed very lightly in your blender and then poured it back into the pot. Try this and thank me later.

    • @mosmada7701
      @mosmada7701 Рік тому +1

      Let's avoid potash though it makes it draw truly, but does kill some nutrients. Research potash. Adding seasoning after it has cooked helps it remain slimy. With blending method, you may thing stalks, smoothens and increases the sliminess and don't overcook.
