Fresh Bitter Leaves

Fresh Bitter Leaves (Vernonia amygdalina), known as Onugbu in Igbo and Ewuro in Yoruba, are essential leafy greens used in traditional West African soups like Ofe Onugbu, Ogbono, and Egusi. Harvested and packaged fresh or frozen, these dark green, nutrient-rich leaves lend an authentic bitter depth beloved in Nigerian cuisine. High in antioxidants and micronutrients, they support liver function and digestive health. Popular in African grocery stores across the USA, Fresh Bitter Leaves are perfect for those craving genuine heritage ingredients.
