What it is
The clear, fiery broth of celebration and recovery: goat, catfish or chicken simmered with native spices (calabash nutmeg, grains of selim) until the pepper clears your head. Ingredients: goat meat or catfish, pepper soup spice (ehuru, uda, uziza), crayfish, scotch bonnets, onions, scent leaves, stock, salt. Recipe: 1) Boil the meat with onions until tender. 2) Add the ground spices and pepper. 3) Simmer until the broth turns fragrant and fierce. 4) Finish with scent leaves. Serve: steaming, with cold drinks — at weddings, naming ceremonies and after childbirth (the traditional restorative). Flavor: aromatic fire in a light, clean broth. History: pepper soups span West Africa's river cultures; Nigeria's spice blends are a pharmacopeia of the forest belt. See also: Egusi Soup, Suya.
