Usage

Bitterleaf soup is a popular dish in Nigerian and other West African cuisines. It features bitterleaf as a central ingredient. The soup is prepared with assorted meats and fish, palm oil, ground crayfish, and other seasonings. Bitterleaf is often blanched to reduce its bitterness before being added to the soup.

Other Information

To prevent clumping, spread the bitter leaves in a single layer on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer for a few hours until partially frozen. Then, transfer them to containers or bags for long-term storage. When you're ready to use the bitter leaves, you can thaw them in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight. Alternatively, you can cook them directly from frozen in recipes like soups, stews, and sauces, with slightly longer cooking times.
