So tell me, How do you prepare your ikoko recipe?

The number one rule for me is that a good and delicious ikoko must be soggy. Yea, i mean soggy. Aren’t no one gat time for that. The second rule is that it must be super flavored with our local fishes, such as busum or Azi Amasu. Considering the fact that Ikoko takes time to prepare and bit stressful to cook it, isn’t a good reason for yours not to be sweet like mine This means that lots of the magic needs to happen way before the Ikoko goes into the sauce.
