  Riso jollof nigeriano

  West Africa's most-argued-over dish, done the Nigerian way: long-grain rice cooked in a deep, smoky blend of blended peppers, tomato, and onion until every grain is stained red and the bottom catches into prized smoky 'party rice'.

  Zuppa di Egusi

  Egusi soup is a rich, savory Nigerian classic built on ground melon seeds that swell in red palm oil into soft, golden curds cradling assorted meat, stockfish, and smoky dried fish. The finish is deep and nutty with a gentle scotch bonnet heat, ribboned with tender pumpkin leaves. Frying the seasoned egusi paste in bloomed palm oil before adding stock is what gives the soup its signature caked texture instead of a thin, grainy gravy.
