✨ Nigerian Catfish Pepper Soup: Food for Raining weather !
Nigerian Catfish Pepper Soup, locally known as “Point and Kill,” is a hugely popular, aromatic, and deeply flavorful broth.1 This comforting, light soup features fresh catfish steaks simmered in a hot, spicy broth.2
The intense flavor comes from a blend of unique traditional Nigerian spices like Ehuru (Calabash Nutmeg), Uziza (Ashanti Pepper), and sometimes Uda (Grains of Selim), along with heat from scotch bonnet peppers.3 Often finished with scent leaves (Efirin)4 or Utazi for an herbal note, it’s a known remedy for colds and hangovers. It’s best served piping hot, often accompanied by boiled yam, plantain, or simply enjoyed on its own.5
