FRESH UHA LEAVES

FRESH UHA LEAVES

Fresh Uha Leaves are essential for anyone preparing classic Igbo dishes like Oha Soup. Known also as ora leaves, they bring a delicate, earthy flavor and tender texture that make native soups authentic and delicious.

Sourced directly from local farms, these leaves are harvested at the peak of freshness. Farmers carefully handpick each leaf to ensure it is young, soft, and green. The leaves are then sorted, washed, and packaged under clean conditions. You’ll receive your bundle fresh and ready to use.

These ora leaves are incredibly easy to cook. Just rinse, slice with your hands (not a knife, to avoid bitterness), and add them to your pot during the final minutes of cooking. They pair well with cocoyam thickener, palm oil, assorted meats, and spices to create the beloved Oha soup.

In addition to their flavor, fresh Uha leaves are known for their health benefits. They’re packed with iron, calcium, potassium, and vitamin C. These nutrients support blood health, immune function, and overall wellness. Traditional medicine also uses ora leaves for anti-inflammatory and digestive support.

Because they are perishable, we recommend using them within 2–3 days of delivery. For longer use, you can blanch and freeze them while retaining their flavor and nutritional value.

Each bundle is available for just ₦8,900, making it affordable for both home and commercial kitchens that care about authenticity and health.
