THE MAKING OF OGI/AKAMU/PAP IN BULK FROM SCRATCH || ONE YEAR SUPPLY || LIFE IN THE DIASPORA🇿🇦

Ogi/Akamu/Pap is a healthy food ideal for breakfast and for weaning babies. This video detailed every step involved in making it from the scratch using dry maize until the final stage of pap formation. Do give it a try by using your blender for small quantity of maize.

Interesting process of making akamu. Watching this video brought back memories of my secondary school days. I helped my aunt a lot in making akamu. We preferred making it ourselves to buying in the market. Weldone Dr.

That's a good one! Thanks for your comment Dr💕

Hello ma! It took me a while before I recognised who you are but after some research, I remembered you vividly!!! Glad to connect with you again! God bless you ma.

Thank you ma'am, I love the way you prepare it sooo neat

Thank you for your kind comment!

​@@rebeccaoyerindehello. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful video. I leave in Europe. I really love pap. Did your pap has the authentic pap smell?. How many day would you recommend i soak the corn. Can i put the soaked corn in a warm room as we dont have much sun here. Thank you again for sharing. God bless

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

​@@favourjohnson5844hi there. Yes, it always has that authentic taste and nice smell of pap 😊. The number of soaking days is highly dependent on weather. 3 days is enough during summer and I don't even attempt it during winter any more because the extreme cold weather doesn't allow the fermentation to take place. Yes, a warm environment is highly needed for the fermentation.

[@favourjohnson5844]

@@rebeccaoyerinde thank you for getting back to me. Blessed weekend.

[@chiamakaflorencegracedan-i4966]

That was a whole lot! 😱 Well done auntie Becky! My mom usually soak hers for just overnight. Was it because of the quantity you made yours 9 days?? Or it's just your general soaking time regardless of how much?

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Thank you sunshine 😊.. It took 9 days because of the difference in temperature and humidity. Nigeria is hotter and more humid and these factors speed up the fermentation process. Of course, the quantity played a part too.

[@odinwankparaymondafamefuna1830]

Neat process kudos to you 👏

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Thank you🙂

[@adefolakemiagbetiloye9451]

U have explained thoroughly. Thank you

Thank you for your comment 💞

[@ogunlekeolayinka8722]

Thank you so much ma for this video. Please ma, do you change the water everyday for that 9days or not? Thank you

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Thank you very much for your comment💕. No, I don’t change the water everyday. It depends on what I see on the surface as the fermentation progresses, then I decide whether to change the water or not.

[@ogunlekeolayinka8722]

Thank you ma

[@seembernongu8608]

Same question I wanted to ask, thank you Ma for this video. It is very helpful.

[@YuciiTV]

Thank you sis. I'm in SA too

[@Dee-xo1ch]

How long after did you let it let it rest before putting it in the muslin bag? You said till the second day. Do you mean 48 hrs after? Does it spoil if you let it rest more than 24 hrs?

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Pap made this way does not spoil easily. The purpose of rest is to allow for separation between the pap and the water. Once you have that, then it’s ok. If you let it rest longer than necessary, the separation may revert and you end up with unsettled pap, especially if it is tightly closed up.

Good morning ma please like how many paint rubber of dry guinea corn can make 4kg when iy has been finally drained

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

I have never user guinea corn before, so I don't know what the final yield will be

[@chinelochristian3786]

So I can use only corn for ogi without adding it anything I want to start the business ma.... I asked bcos many people are adding different things. Good morning

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Basically and for beginners, all you need is dry corn. However, other things are usually added like ginger, other grains like millet and sorghum. But if it's for business, I'd advice you stick to the basic - dry corn. If your customers then want varieties, you can make for them based on their specifications.

[@odinwankparaymondafamefuna1830]

Will you say that the cloth sieve is better than the one you used?

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

The cloth is indeed finer than sieve, but when cooked, there was no much difference. Although the cloth may be preferred for commercial purpose.

[@MirriamChukwu]

Why 9 days ma’am?

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Ideally it should be 3-4 days. But I found that the maize kernels I used were unusually hard and there was no sign of fermentation/softening after the typical 3-4 days. Also, I think the weather at that time was not hot enough to facilitate the process. Hence the prolonged number of days. Thanks for your comment/question

[@aminatukareem7613]

Good morning, can hot water be use for fermentation

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

Thanks for your question. I've heard and seen people use hot water, but I have never tried it. Maybe I'll do so, some day.

[@preciousodubogun5214]

Using hot water is not advisable, it will kill the bacteria. This bacteria are very nutritious to the body.

[@rebeccaoyerinde]

@@preciousodubogun5214 That makes a lot of sense! Thank you so much! I didn’t think of it from that angle
