Summary: Koobi is salted tilapia used in most Ghanaian savory dishes such as dips, stews, soups, etc, to attain an umami taste. It is similar in taste to shrimp paste, and fish sauce. Salting and drying are both preservation methods used in the production of koobi and therefore, it stores well in the freezer or at room temperature.
Ingredients:
6 medium size tilapia scaled, gutted, fins and gills left intact
2 pounds coarse sea salt

Wow! This felt so nostalgic. As a Chinese person, we have similar salted fish in our culture as well and I remember when my mom would make white rice porridge and serve it with the dried, salted fish.
Oh great. Never thought I could make my own koobi.simple and straight forward.love it.could really use some spinach stew.
Thanks my master chef
#NumberOneFan
Yes ooo, Anita, simple and tietia ankasa😍 now you’ve got me craving some spinach stew and pona yams kraa 😋thank you so much sis! Love you 😘😘😘
I am so excited about this tutorial...waiting for the sun now and koobi production will commence. I can't wait. Thanks Nana Aba from the bottom of my heart.
You’re most welcome dear 😘😘😘
Thank you so much, l don't like fresh tilapia but you just showed me how to remove the impurities from the fish. Tilapia is a river fish and we must remove the impurities. Infact in my family we were told not to eat it unless really hungry. Thank you my darling daughter.
Somethings are easy to do paaaaa ooo if only you know how to do them. I must try and do my own koobi. No time to waste. Thanks mum. My kitchen mentor you dey beee k3k3
Module brought me here
HI Classmates if ya'll are reading this Lol
Oh wow!! This is amazing. With the amount of sunshine we get here, it only makes sense that we make our own koobi. I have a lot of koobi but I am going to "make koobi while tge sun shines" for later😘😘😘😘. Thanks Nana. You're a genius.
Thank you sis! Coming from Kwankyewaa the original and a passionate cook herself, I’m very grateful and a flattered small p3😍💕 medaase onwiawaa 😘😘😘

I really like idea of the basmati bag. Makes it less messy and easy. This will really go with apem ampas3 paa ne nkontomire abomu 😋. Love it!! ❤❤❤ thanks for sharing sissy 😉
Awwwww, Afia, sis😘 I’m happy you love it! Yes The basmati bag was such a blessing and you’re right, it helped to make the production clean! Love you loads sis 😘😘😘
Obaa what happened to the weight loss... you have described the best use of the koobi
Woooow this is amazing.. we use similar methods to salt sardines and other types of fish too. I'm originally from Egypt living in Canada and I didn't know we can also salt tilapia the same old way.. will definitely give it a try ASAP. Thanks a lot for sharing😊👍🏽
Thanks . I’ll be making my own koobi from now on.
Can u make it with the regular salt
I'm having fun watching this video.
Thank you 🙏🏽🥰
Can this be done under the window, indoors? Will it smell the house?
This looks good my gosh!!!
Veni love, thank you dear 😘😘😘
Wow lovely.
Thank you 🙏🏾💕
Wow i want to try.. will the smell attract flies
Thanks very much for the video
Bernice, it’s my pleasure dear! Thank you 🙏🏾😘😘😘

Sounds like a great plan my brother. I’d love your feedback wae 🙏🏾😚 much love.
Well done 👍🏼
Thank you dear for watching and commenting 🙏🏾💕😘
For The Love Of God...I Don't Why I Am Watching Kobi Production, So I Have Managed To Get My Kid Sister, Involved, And She Will Get The Tilapia From The Supermarket,..And She's Somehow By Some Miracle, Has Agreed To Assist In The "Venture"!! I Don't Know Why I Feel Doom and Gloom, Already, In The Pending Collab. I Think Cos. She Normally Needs A GPS To Find The Kitchen!..God Help Us!! Be Well!
Hahahahaha! Wendell! This comment of yours caused a burst of wild laughter that got my family curious as to what was so funny 😅😅 enjoy the process with you sister and perhaps orient her to the kitchen location!😅😅! I thank you Wendell for always leaving intriguing comments for your sister here 🙏🏽❤️😘😘😘
Cool! How many times can you re-use the salt?
Im hear for my module HAHAHAHA
Samee HAHA
I'm guessing we're the same nationality based on the way how you talk and Laugh lol
Love it
Thank you and I’m happy very happy you love it dear Ruth 😘😘😘
Ooh wao! My favorite stinking fish; never thought of knowing how to make it. Very hygienic and healthy. Please send me one wai! Very, very well done Nana. (Y-B NP)
Me too
Thank you Yasmine and I’m so happy you find this video useful 😘😘😘
@@NanaabasKitchen My pleasure Nana (Y-B NP)
Thanks for sharing this with us. This is the most hygienic and healthiest Koobi ever. With this homemade Koobi, you don't have to worry about where it's coming from. Awesome 😍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely John, you get it and I’m very grateful for your support! Thank you 🙏🏾😍
Can I you use the grind sea salt
You sure can 🙏🏾
If the fins are removed, would it alter the process?
Whenever I cook with koobi, I remove the fins, so am thinking, if I should do it at home, I will remove it while it's fresh, since it's easier
Removing the fins first will not cause any alterations to the process at all
@@NanaabasKitchen oh ok
Thank you
hahahaha Just made it today. The weather is lovely now in London so made about 8 big ones. Cost me only 12 pounds. The 8 will probably cost me about 100 pounds in the African shop. Thanks so much
Now momone please hahahahahaha
I got you and the video is being edited. Thankbyou 😘😘😘
What a bargain! Thank you for the feedback 😘😘😘
Nanaaba's Kitchen do you have a video on how to make momoni ?
Awesome. I will definitely save this video to try it later. I use alot of saltfish, especially with my ackee.
Kerry, I love ackee! Thank you and I’m so happy you’re inspired to try it later 🙏🏾💕
That's good and all in America or Europe. However Africa Market Women are the best authentic makers, tilapia is a relatively cheep fish and shouldn't be so expensive in Liberia or Africa for that matter. Thank you nevertheless.
How do you store it later.
It stores well in a burlap bag at room temperature or in ziplock bags in the freezer, you may also keep them on a rack in an open area. I store them in a ziplock bag in my freezer. 🙏🏾😘😘😘
@@NanaabasKitchen perfect thank you so much for your help ❤
What if I'm living in Europe is winter time and also i live in an apartment and i don't have garden any solutions this? Thanks in advance
To get the best results, you must wait till summer time and make a big batch then to last a while.
@@NanaabasKitchen
Thanks for advice is shame i just saw your video today it means i have to be patient until next year to eat the fish 😋
It's money saver as well. 😍
Yes ooo John, a true money saver! Thank you 😍
Can't believe you got all that for 15 dollars $😦😦😦
You never cease to amaze me!! Your knowledge of food chemistry is truly incredible. Let me know when you are opening your restaurant. I will be there :)
What a great and heartfelt compliment Hazel, thank you 🙏🏾😘😘😘
I'm a happy camper! Thank you for sharing. As you stated in your video, salted fish is expensive. Bowing to you!
Bow to God only please
It's a Figure of speech. It's giving praise because a lot of people don't share their Recipes. Trust me, no one can stand next to my lord and savior Jesus Christ !
wow, this looks wonderful sis, never thought i could make my own, thanks for sharing dear, have a blessed day
The pleasure is always mine dear! I really happy you’re yo share 💕 you have a blessed day as well dearie 🙏🏾😘
Can you leave the fish in your kitchen if you don’t have a garden ?
You said to leave the Gill in, May I ask why?
Also, is it really safe to store the used and salt and reuse it especially since
It’s being stored in a pantry as opposed to a freezer?
The gills help with the classic fermented taste of Koobi in the long run. It is absolutely safe to store the used salt in the pantry. No microorganisms that have potential to cause disease will survive in salt. The freezer is an option of storage too.
Nanaaba's Kitchen 👍 thank u :)
@@NanaabasKitchen Thanks for sharing this recipe. Can I make it with different types of fish?
It is a good business.. selling dried fish.. how long will it last?
Halo tuan tuan kami dari indonesia inggin menawar kan berbagaimacam ikan kering jika tuan tuan dan nyonya berminat bisa menghubunggi kami❤
But hold up, this is a lucrative business idea 🤔🤔
I bet you only spent $15 for the fish and the salt!
Wooow another amazing video. Thank you for sharing :)
Thank you sis 😘😘😘
You are amazing 😀 love love your channel thank you for the inspiration ❤️
Thank you 🙏🏽😘
Pls, in case you get the sea salt can you manage the other one ironate salt?
May I pls know what could bring the aroma of the koobi?
I tried this before and it didn’t smell like the regular ones I buy from the African market.
What did I miss pls?
Oh so nice will like to know how to make momoni
That video is being edited right now, so stay tuned please and thank you 😘😘😘
How to cook it though like how do you eat it with what food?
Nanaaba, darling, you are a blessing to us all. As for your smile, it's epic. Thanks alot for sharing. Can you share how to make momoni and supaku ( It's like koobi but moist)?
Hi. I just discovered your channel and really glad about it. I live in England and it's not as hot and I have no outside space to dry the fish out... can it be done in the Oven?
Can I do this with a different type of fish?
I would like to now as well.
Hello. Please what about momome? Do you have a recipe for that?
Thank you
You probably won't see this but could you teach us how to gut the fish. I wasn't taught this and I'm trying to learn how to do this.
I see and read all comments that come through this channel and I’ve noted your request. Stay tuned 🙏🏽🥰
How long do you usually keep these fish prepared this way before they should be thrown out? How long do they last?
How do you store them, can you cut them up and soak in oil or wrap them up and store in freezer? And also how do you cook them? Do you need to wash rinse them first, steam or fry?
Wow, thank you very much. Will start doing mine😂😂😂
My husband is a big fan of you.We really do appreciate what you are doing.We will definitely make our own koobi from now on👍👍👍👍👍👍👍.
Sounds like a money saving plan right there and I’m so happy to hear it! Thank you Loretta 😘😘😘

Well,...This Is Wendell B Smith...Kinda Late To The Koobi "Production"!...About 8 months or so late!..But, Better Late Than Never!..I am Always Reminiscing, Back To Childhood! My Nana...May She RIP..Used To Make Mashed Semi-Riped Plantains..With Palm-Nut Oil...Then Roast/Toast The Koobi...As A "Condiment"...To The Plantain/Palm Oil Mash! Right?!...I Was About 6..But My Hippocampus..That Side Of My Brain..Will Always Remember That!....God Bless You Ms. Nanaaba!!
It is certainly cherished memories like such that one’s hippocampus keeps intact forever! I just love that you so generously share your authentic cherished meteorites with us 🙏🏽❤️ Your your Nana rest well and be remembered by our faithful creator Wendell! So much love dearie 🙏🏽❤️😘
Don't you cook it after drying it?
How do you cook it and eat it?
Well done sis
If I return to Ghana I will do mine.
Thanks for sharing
Wow! Thanks :)
now how to cook koobi
What do you do when you don’t have the sun ☀️
Mary, you may keep in a dry space and it only means the dehydration process will take longer 🙏🏿😍
Thanks Nana
Thx 4 inform
Do I need the sun?
Great video
Wow, nice. I will try it. Thanks for sharing!
When you sit it outside under the he sun how do you keep flies from landing on it?
Yiee Nanaaba, you're truly Godsent. Nyame nhyira wo paa.
Great
I'm on it all the way from Iowa👍👌. Thanks
Wow thanks for sharing
Anytime Betty, my queen! It isn’t pleasure to share 🙏🏾😘😘😘
how to remove the salt while cooking
😊😊
Tnx for sharing sis God bless you
Does anyone know if I can just use the oven on the lowest heat setting to make koobi? I mean because it's winter right now.
It will bake no matter how low the setting… use a dehydrator if u dont have the sun
Wow that’s amazing.. I will keep saying that I have learned a lot from your channel.. I hv watched different channels on UA-cam but u are so far the best . Am going to try it this weekend. Let’s give some love to this beautiful woman wai ❤️
Oh Caroline, thank you so much for your kind, encouraging, and loving words ❤️ I can’t wait for you to try it sis😘😘😘
Thank you NanaAba.. you saved some of us. Please were did you get the sea salt from. Thanks
A C, I got the Sea salt from an oriental store close by where I live. It is also available on Amazon.com. Thank you🙏🏾😘
Hi, can you use a dehydrator to make koobi.
Koobi, actually requires the gradual process of fermentation as well as drying or dehydration so the dehydrator will defeat that process of fermentation. It’s best to use the sun. Thank you dear🙏🏾💕
It's very nice but next time don't cut the fish like that it supposed to be by the side and when the salt is too much the koobi will be tearing thank
Ok, thanks for your feedback Eden😘
Nanaaba, how do you make smoked fish, like back home? Could you show us - I would like to see it!
I sure have a recipe coming up real soon! Thank you so much for requesting 🙏🏿🥰
Please can I use dehydrator when is no substantial sunlight, thanks
I’ll avoid the dehydrator in this preparation. In the absence of the sun, I recommend rather air drying. Thank you 🙏🏿
@@NanaabasKitchen
Hello just discovered you, thank you for this!! I can't leave outside because of animals...can I leave it out in the day and bring inside at night? And repeat. If i can, should I leave it inside in a cooler area or warm spot? (I live in a downtown Canadian city) Thank you!
...or can I dehydrate in oven?
Can this be achieved indoors for those of us living in colder wet climates and without much sun - Seattle, using an oven?
Yes, at room temperature, 80 - 85 Degrees Fahrenheit. Must be kept in a dry environment as well. It will take perhaps 2-3 weeks to cure perfectly this way.
Wow am gonna make my own koobi..no more money for the African market ...thanks for sharing
That’s what I’m talking about Nana😘😘😘
Thx for sharing.
I would try this but I’m worried animals such as cats and foxes would come at night to eat my tilapia 😂
Hahahahaha 😅 I’m happy I didn’t have that problem 😂🙏🏾😘
