Miyan Kuka, a northern Nigeria soup, is made from dry baobab leaves. It is also called Luru soup, Baobab trees are prolific in northern Nigeria and the leaves are picked, dried and ground into very fine green powder. This leaf is nutrient-dense.
Miyan Kuka is not a very visually appealing soup, it is mucilaginous and green, It is one of those dishes that taste even better when warmed and eaten the next day.
