Description

Ponmo is processed cow skin, a beloved protein across Nigerian cuisine known for its unique chewy texture. It’s a budget-friendly, collagen-rich addition that soaks up the flavor of whatever it’s cooked in.

Ponmo is commonly added to soups like Egusi, Efo Riro, and Ofe Owerri, and is also a popular addition to Jollof Rice and stews.

Wash thoroughly and boil until tender before adding to your dish of choice.

Recipe tip: Boil with a pinch of salt and onion for 20–30 minutes until tender before adding to soups.
