Thank you so much for this. I was a labor and delivery nurse. One day a woman came with her mother from Africa, Ghana I think. She had been giving a corn drink to her daughter to increase her milk supply. I had never heard of this and was so impressed with how well it worked. That mama had more milk than anyone I ever saw in 30 years.
Great job sis. i always love people who try to make things by themselves. At least you will be sure of what you are eating. I always make my pap with different corn species i.e the white, yellow, millet, red and white guineas corn. and spice it up with cloves and ginger. The water (omidun), i kept in my fridge for drinking and sometimes use it to boil herbs.
How do I get the two different types of bags you used, the one for sieving the grinded corn and the one for pouring it in. How do I get these bags please?
Great job dear, I love akamu. Soaking is actually 4 days, so that fermentation can take place, that is how you get distinctive smell and sour test that akamu have. Other than that, you did a great job.👍
This is so true. I did this using this same Hominy corn soaking it for two days but it didn’t have that distinctive sour taste that Akamu has, it was more like custard. I’m doing a new batch this week and I’m soaking the corn for 4 days. Hopefully it would come out better this time😀
You're a darling thanks for this. Someone refused to bring for me from Nigeria. I love drinking ogi. I'll be able to do this myself, never knew it's this easy to make.
Good job dear. Observation: instead of sterilizing anything you’re using for pap with salt, it’s better u sterilize with hot water, reason being that salt shouldn’t come anywhere near ur pap. This is the reason why ur pap doesn’t thicken when u make it sometimes, because whoever made d pap from scratch must have come in contact with salt or u that is preparing d pap to drink have made salt contact with the pap. Thanks.
Well done Sis, this is really helpful. Just what I need at the moment. I am a nursing mother and have been trying out different ways to boost my milk production. With this I can now make it at home.
Making pap actually seems to be easy,desgrasful if not careful while making it, but am happy today after watching this video I have been able to gather a lot of ex perience in making pap
My sister, you are doing well. I usually buy corn flour, the already blended cornflour, and soak it directly to make my akamu. I am a very lazy cook, plus I don't have enough time for this process. I really applaud you. Growing up we used ginger and guinea corn and millet, but I personally prefer the corn taste. 👊👏👏
I prefer the white pap. This is time consuming but worth it especially for those outside Nigeria. The blender has to be a strong one to avoid story that touches the heart😀great content as usual✌
Well done,you have done a great 👍 job.I thought you sell it in US...till I heard you saying you always keep in the fridge for a year.It's a lot of work/process,I can never do it,I buy in african store especially for breastfeeding...even now that I have stopped breastfeeding, just to enjoy with my moi moi or beans.
Nice and neatly prepared. I prefer the yellow corn but like adding dawa. One of my best for breakfast . Best result when I combine it with moi moi, okpa , fried plantain or porridge beans Well done Adorable.
Thank you Ebele for your great knowledge of how to make Ogi/Akamu I watched your video which is very interesting And we appreciate it. My question is do you have a Recipe Book with Nigerian Cuisines? If so how can I purchase one. My name is :- Mrs Taiwo Olufunwa and I live in North London.
Chai see my girl is almost at 1k ..💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾💃🏾 .. To do akamu in abroad is not easy at all ok .. the most stressful part for me is when I am sieving it .. .. good job as always ❤️❤️
Well done sis, you did a very good job. The akamu is looking so lovely and yummlicious even without cooking it yet. Those blenders are sure powerful! Nice sharing. Let the countdown begin!!! 💃💃💃
Hello I'm back here again. Actually I'm making my akamu and I'm in the soaking process, pls I want to ask at what point do I add ginger as I like the flavor.
@@AdorableKitchen thank you Adorable kitchen. I just love you ❤️ so much. Thanks 😘😘. I'll show you pictures of my akamu when I'm done so you can score me.😊😊
This well made Adaora. I don't have any preference on white or yellow Akamu. I prefer just making my Akamu without the millet or ginger. Thanks for sharing.
Welldone sis👍🏽❤.. Of a truth akamu is a big job, this i know by experience because i sieved mine today after 3 days of soaking. 3- 4 days i prefer for better fermentation and also save the blender life, except for those grinding with heavy duty. It's all worth the stress at the end though. Welldone sis. Love from India🤗
Awwww. Thanks so much dear for this feedback. It is a big work indeed. I like that you soaked 3 days for better fermentation and to help the blades of your blender... Well done dear💖💖
@@AdorableKitchen ohh yes i know nri oka oo☺, very good with okro soup, but can't remember how it's done. Thank you. Do you have a video of the nri oka sis?
@@thegracedlifenetwork8812 😅 No dear. I dried the chaff. Then I just added little wheat then prepared it the normal way we make semo. That was once sha. I didn't really like it.
In Cameroon we call it pap . White corn is trash , yellow corn all day . Thanks for this cus all the ones I’ve bought from African stores taste like water and air. I’ll make mine

Yes, corn pudding boosts breast milk supply 😁

The bag you used to tie the akamu to drain the water is what type of bag. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Muslin bag or cheese bag
How do I get the two different types of bags you used, the one for sieving the grinded corn and the one for pouring it in. How do I get these bags please?
Great job dear, I love akamu. Soaking is actually 4 days, so that fermentation can take place, that is how you get distinctive smell and sour test that akamu have. Other than that, you did a great job.👍
Hi, thanks for clarifying that. But is it okay to soak it more than 4days?.
No, more than 4 days won't be good
Iike is because my grandmother seller in Nigeria that why know to do it good job
I've watched a lot of videos on pap and I noticed soaking was for 2 to 3days. 2days was for if you're using warm water.
This is so true. I did this using this same Hominy corn soaking it for two days but it didn’t have that distinctive sour taste that Akamu has, it was more like custard. I’m doing a new batch this week and I’m soaking the corn for 4 days. Hopefully it would come out better this time😀
Awesome content 👏🏾 ❤ Ginger akamu is my favorite.
Same here!
You're a darling thanks for this.
Someone refused to bring for me from Nigeria.
I love drinking ogi.
I'll be able to do this myself, never knew it's this easy to make.
Lol. Yes, you can make yours.
You are welcome
I like the powder... I mixed it with pumpkin flour, soy flour and rice flour and cook it. Taste great
Making this is a lot of work. I remember making the one with millet for my baby it wasn't easy. You r a supper mum. Well done
Thank you my fellow super mom. It's not easy but it's worth it.
Love the ziplock packaging choice
Awesome! Im going to try making some of this next week
Great job. Very simplified process. I’ve been working too hard and losing a lot of Akamu. Not anymore after watching your video. Thank you!
You are welcome 👍
Good job dear.

Hi, pls can I use dry sweet corn? I can only access sweet corn here in England.
I haven't tried using sweet corn. Feel free to experiment with it
@@AdorableKitchen Okay, thanks
Well done Sis, this is really helpful. Just what I need at the moment. I am a nursing mother and have been trying out different ways to boost my milk production. With this I can now make it at home.

That a genius way Nah. Since u can get your akamu that way. No need to stress abeg. I will come for the tutorial neighbor.
When you use the cornflour Does it taste like akamu?
@@iraro4show283 it will never taste like akamu
I prefer the white pap. This is time consuming but worth it especially for those outside Nigeria. The blender has to be a strong one to avoid story that touches the heart😀great content as usual✌

Welldone sis👍🏽❤..
Of a truth akamu is a big job, this i know by experience because i sieved mine today after 3 days of soaking. 3- 4 days i prefer for better fermentation and also save the blender life, except for those grinding with heavy duty.
It's all worth the stress at the end though. Welldone sis.

Yeah, you can use it for swallow. Nri oka.
@@AdorableKitchen ohh yes i know nri oka oo☺, very good with okro soup, but can't remember how it's done. Thank you.
Do you have a video of the nri oka sis?
@@thegracedlifenetwork8812 😅 No dear. I dried the chaff. Then I just added little wheat then prepared it the normal way we make semo. That was once sha. I didn't really like it.
Please what blender are you using? I have ninja grinder but it’s not doing the job like smooth
My blender Ambiano. It's an old blender. I doubt they still make it
Please hw long can this stay and the thing I place the akamu to drain is it a seive??
Yes it's a sieve. You mean how long the akamu can stay? Up to 6 months in a freezer
Great vedio. If you upload other recipies done from ogi that could be helpful. Indian English plz
Great job 👍
I just came across your channel and I love what am seeing already, good job sis. Pls what's d maker of ur blender I need something like dz

Thak you very good 👍 👏 👌 ♥ ❤ you are doing great so good for me God bless you

Hello Very nice and useful video. Could you pls leave links or pictures of the kind of bags you can use pls
Mine is a new cotton pillow case.

A new cotton pillow case
In Cameroon we call it pap . White corn is trash , yellow corn all day . Thanks for this cus all the ones I’ve bought from African stores taste like water and air. I’ll make mine
What if you're using newly harvested corn; do you still need to soak for many days?
I don't know about using newly harvested corn for pap. I have not tried it and I don't think it will work. Feel free to try it though.
Weldone sis
Wow
Beautiful
U did a great job 👏
Hi Sis, what do you call the cloth to drain
Muslin cloth
I prefer millet and guinea corn combination. That's what I make always.
