About Pepper soup
Pepper Soup is a flavorful, spicy soup originating from West African cuisine, particularly popular in Nigeria. It features a rich blend of traditional spices such as uziza seeds, calabash nutmeg, and chili peppers, combined with hearty ingredients like goat meat, fish, or chicken. Variations often include plantains or yams for added texture. Renowned for its medicinal and warming properties, pepper soup is thought to help with cold relief and digestion due to its bold spices. It is low in unhealthy fats when prepared traditionally, making it a nutritious and protein-rich dish. However, its sodium content can be high depending on the amount of seasoning used, so moderation is key. Perfect as a light, satisfying meal or appetizer, this dish serves as both a comfort food and a celebration of West Africa's vibrant culinary heritage.
