🍲 Ofe Nsala (Igbo White Soup) Ofe Nsala is a traditional Igbo delicacy known for its simplicity, purity, and rich taste. Unlike many Nigerian soups that use palm oil, Ofe Nsala is prepared without it, giving it its signature light or “white” appearance. This soup is commonly made with fresh catfish, though goat meat or chicken can also be used. What makes it unique is the use of boiled yam as a natural thickener, which gives it a smooth and slightly creamy texture. It is flavored with local spices like uziza leaves, crayfish, pepper, and seasoning, creating a spicy and aromatic taste. Ofe Nsala is more than just food in Igbo culture. It is often prepared for special occasions, traditional gatherings, and to welcome important guests.
