Utazi leaves have a distinctive sharp, slightly bitter taste that Nigerians either love passionately or acquire over time. These aromatic leaves are essential in Abacha (African Salad), Nkwobi, and Isi Ewu — iconic Igbo bar snacks and celebration dishes. Utazi also has traditional medicinal uses, believed to aid digestion and reduce blood sugar.

Thaw and shred finely. Use sparingly due to the strong, bitter flavour. Essential in Abacha (African Salad) — shred and mix with ugba, palm oil, crayfish, and potash. Add to Nkwobi and Isi Ewu as a garnish. Can also be used in pepper soup and certain traditional medicines. A little goes a long way.
