Do You Know You Can Make Swallow With Harvecity Okpa Flour
Locally referred to as "Utara Okpa" or "Nni Oka" by the Nsukka and Onitsha people of Eastern Nigeria, this smooth, high-protein swallow behaves similarly to Amala, Tuwo, or Agidi when cooked,
Here are the 4 Steps to make your swallow
Step 1: Cold Mix: Dissolve the okpa flour in a pot with room-temperature or lukewarm water. Whisk it thoroughly until it forms a completely smooth, very watery slurry. Do not add oil, salt, or pepper.
Step 2: Cook on the Stove: Place the pot over low-to-medium heat. Stir continuously with a wooden spatula or turning stick. It will quickly begin to thicken and form translucent translucent lumps; keep stirring vigorously to smooth them out.
Step 3: Adjust and Steam: Once it gathers into a thick paste, pour a little water around the edges. Cover the pot and let it steam on low heat for 5 to 10 minutes to ensure the flour cooks completely.
Step 4: Final Turn & Cool: Give it a final, vigorous stir until it is stretchy and soft. Turn off the heat and scoop it into wraps or a bowl. Let it cool completely before eating; it hardens into its perfect, swallowable texture as it cools down
