Beans Flour Gbegiri
Oh Yes! You read the Heading right, sometimes one will crave for this soup so badly but the stress or should I say hard work attached to preparing this delicacy will discourage you, that’s why i’m presenting this easy way to you all. For those that don’t understand, Gbegiri is one of the holy trinity of Abula which consists of Amala served with Ewedu Soup and Gbegiri. The first two are pretty staright forward to make but Gbegiri is the reason why many people don’t eat this as often as they want here is why.
To make Gbegiri the normal steps are:
1. Picking stones out of the Beans
2. Washing it
3. Peeling the Beans
4. Rinsing off the skin with a sieve
5. Boiling the peeled Beans
6. Adding Oil and Seasoning
7. Allowing to cook till soft
8. Blending till smooth
9. Pouring back into the pot and bring to a boil
10. Washing the bowl you used to peel the Beans
11. Washing the strainer used to separate the Beans from the peel( this is the worst part)
12. Washing the blender
13. Wiping the tears from your eyes when you realise you just spent 2 hours making Gbegiri when you could have spent JUST 5 MINUTES using Beans Flour.
