Palm nut soup/ ofe akwu Palm nut soup/ ofe akwu
I love food lol but my favorite soup of all, is this beautiful palm nut soup. The flavor of the palm nut is indescribable and delicious 😋! The palm tree is just amazing that you can get wine from it and it’s no low class wine either! Palm oil is a must for a lot of Igbo dishes and of course the palm nut soup 🍜 is time consuming but so worth it !

Fermented Fish Noodle Soup| Bún Mắm Cá Lóc Fermented Fish Noodle Soup| Bún Mắm Cá Lóc
This is similar to Bún Mắm Nước Lèo, which uses a couple different types of fermented fishes to make the broth, as well as a variety of different toppings (roasted pork, stuffed peppers fish cakes, squid, ect.). This is shortened and made a bit more simple with less toppings. The broth is almost identical, using (air) fried snake head fish (cá lóc) as the main topping and local pre fried fish cake for quick light work. The bitter veggies and mix varieties of herbs and chives is what I love eating this soup the most. The funky salted savory sweet soup broth balances with the bitterness fresh veggies, along with the spicy chili and a squeeze of lime, just makes this bowl of noodle soup overwhelmingly flavorful. With sweet, savory, salty, bitterness, crunchy, fresh, funky, spicy, citrusy… just so much going on!
