Everything You Need for Authentic Nigerian Pepper Soup
Nigerian pepper soup is a light, intensely spiced broth made with a unique blend of West African spices that cannot be replicated with standard Western spices. The distinctive flavour comes from a combination of uziza seeds, uda (negro pepper), ehuru (calabash nutmeg), and other aromatic spices that are unique to West African cooking.
