🥄 How to Use

• Rinse thoroughly before cooking

• Blend for Moimoi or Akara batter

• Combine with plantains, gari, or rice for classic African meals

🍳 Cooking Tips (for PERFECT texture)

🕒 1. Pre-soak for faster cooking

Soaking makes the beans softer and helps them cook evenly.

🍅 2. Cook with aromatics

Add:

• onions

• garlic

• ginger

• bay leaves

This builds deeper flavor from the start.

🔥 3. Don’t salt too early

Salt can toughen beans — add it toward the end of cooking.

🫘 4. For Moimoi/Akara:

Blend beans until smooth with onion, pepper, and seasoning for a fluffy, delicious batter.

🌶 5. Pair with spicy oils

Best served with shito, palm oil stew, or pepper sauce.
