Hibiscus Leaves (Ewedu) Fresh or Dried – Traditional Nigerian Soup Greens for Authentic Ewedu Soup

Make classic Yoruba ewedu soup with Hibiscus Leaves (Ewedu) – fresh or dried greens that deliver the authentic slimy texture, mild flavor, and traditional taste when paired with amala, semo, or pounded yam!

These nutrient-rich leaves are a cornerstone of Nigerian home cooking.

• Authentic Ewedu Texture: Fresh leaves cook into the signature slimy, viscous consistency that Yoruba ewedu soup is known for – smooth and comforting.

• Nutritious & Natural: High in vitamins A, C, iron, calcium, and fiber – a healthy green staple in African diets.

• Convenient Pack: Fresh (pre-washed) or dried – ready to cook; freeze fresh leaves for up to 6 months.
