This Silky Corn Porridge Is Great For Your Gut - Ogi Akamu Pap

Ogi is the Yoruba name for fermented corn porridge. In different parts of Nigeria, it is also known as pap or akamu. This porridge is also eaten in other West African countries. Unlike standard corn-based custard, it has a tangy taste due to the fermentation. It goes well with Akara , Moin Moin, or even Puff Puff.

The traditional process of making ogi from scratch involves soaking fresh corn for a few days, grinding it to a paste and sieving it to remove husks. The ogi paste is then left to ferment for a few more days, giving it a distinct sour taste. These days, you can buy frozen ogi paste or ogi powder from well-stocked African grocery stores or online, making it easier to enjoy this glossy delicacy in a matter of minutes.
