How to Make Tigernut Ofio Milk Drink

x-tigernut-ofio-drink-milk-recipe
In my Lose It Nigerian book, I presented tigernut milk aka ofio (imumu) drink as a diary free alternative to cow milk. I have had so many amazing feedbacks on the recipe and I thought to share it with the bigger 9jafoodie audience.  You will be surprised by how easy it is to make this recipe, it’s pretty much just 3 simple steps. The process of making this is similar to soy milk, you can find that recipe HERE . If you dont live where you can easily source tigernut, feel free to substitute almonds in this recipe. If you use fresh tigernuts, there is no need to pre-soak them.
Dried dates can be used as sugarfree way to sweeten the milk. I have heard “read” that adding date and coconut into tigernut makes it an aphrodisiac, I cannot confirm or deny this claim. If you try the combination for this purpose and it happens to be true, please let a sister know.

How to prepare Spicy Tomato Pasta With Arugula

  Spicy Tomato Pasta With Arugula Time : 20 minutes  This one-pot pasta is coated in a rich sauce owing to a basic foundation of olive oil, tomato paste, smoky Calabrian chili paste, and pasta water. It's a go-to recipe for sleepy weeknights when you don't want to chop an onion or mince garlic. This spicy and flavorful Italian chile paste is made from crushed Calabrian chiles combined with oil, salt, and occasionally vinegar. If you can't locate it, you can also use hot pickled chiles or chile-garlic paste. You can always add extra chile to your bowl, so err on the side of caution with that. Two methods of serving the arugula: Each serving bowl should have a tangle of it at the bottom. Toss the heated spaghetti with it to soften. Then slice the rawness, or heap it on top, pour with your lovely olive oil, and sprinkle with some grated cheese for a salad and pasta dish. INGREDIENTS Yield: 4 servings Salt ¾pound long, thin pasta, such as vermicelli or capellini 2tablespoons ol...
