About Ogbono
Ogbono, also known as Nigerian bush mango or wild mango seed, is a nutrient-rich ingredient commonly used in West African cuisine, particularly in soups and sauces. Derived from the seeds of the Irvingia gabonensis tree, ogbono seeds are packed with healthy fats, dietary fiber, protein, and essential minerals like magnesium, potassium, and calcium. They are also a source of antioxidants, which help combat oxidative stress. Ogbono plays a key role in thickening dishes due to its gelatinous texture when cooked, making it a staple in traditional recipes like Ogbono soup. Its high fiber content supports digestive health, while the healthy fats contribute to heart health and sustained energy. However, its caloric density warrants moderation in consumption for those managing weight. Ogbono offers a flavorful, nutritious addition to meals while showcasing the vibrant culinary traditions of West Africa.
