How to Make the Most Delicious Egusi Soup (Auntie J’s Style)
Step 1: Prepare and Cook the Meat
Wash the meat thoroughly. Season lightly with salt and one seasoning cube. Place in a pot and add enough water to cover it. Bring it to a boil and then reduce the heat to allow it to cook slowly. If you are using smoked fish or stockfish, add it now so it softens and blends with the stock. Skim off any foam on the surface to keep your stock clean.
Auntie Tip: Slow cooking helps the meat become tender and gives you a rich, steady base for your soup.
