Ades Stock Fish Tusk 250g

Description

Ades Stock Fish Tusk 250g is dried stockfish tusk — a concentrated, savoury staple in Nigerian and West African soups, prized for the firm, chewy texture and deep flavour it brings to a pot once softened.

How to prepare

• Soak in hot water for 30-60 minutes until pliable, then chop into chunks and add to your pot.
• Cook thoroughly until tender — stockfish softens further the longer it simmers in soup.
• Pairs well with scotch bonnet pepper, crayfish and leafy greens in egusi or ogbono soup.

Storage

• Store in a cool, dry place in an airtight container — no freezing required.
• Keeps for several months when stored properly away from moisture.

Frequently asked

Do I need to freeze this?

No — dried stockfish is shelf-stable and should be stored in a cool, dry cupboard, not the freezer.

How long should I soak it?

30-60 minutes in hot water until pliable, then chop and add to your soup or stew.
