Dried Ewedu Leaves are a time-saving solution for lovers of Yoruba cuisine. Known as jute leaves, ewedu is a staple in dishes like amala with gbegiri and stew. With its slimy, soft texture and earthy flavor, it complements other soups perfectly and provides both taste and nutrition.
We harvest these jute leaves while still young and green. After sorting and washing, we gently dry them under shade to retain their texture, color, and nutrients. This careful process avoids chemical preservatives and maintains purity. Each batch is packed clean and ready for immediate use.
Using dried ewedu leaves saves you prep time without compromising on flavor. Simply soak the dried leaves in warm water for about 10 minutes, rinse thoroughly, then blend or cook directly. You’ll achieve the same slimy consistency and traditional flavor as with fresh leaves.
Ewedu contains iron, calcium, fiber, and antioxidants. It supports digestion, relieves inflammation, and strengthens the immune system. That’s why it’s a favorite in both family kitchens and herbal remedy traditions.
Whether you’re in Nigeria or abroad, this product lets you enjoy your favorite Yoruba soups anytime. Add crayfish, locust beans (iru), seasoning, and blend for a rich traditional taste.
