Description
Iru, or locust beans, is a highly aromatic, protein-rich seasoning made from the fermented seeds of the Parkia biglobosa tree. It is a staple in Nigerian and West African cooking, adding depth and a savory umami taste to dishes like Egusi soup, Ogbono soup, and vegetable stews. Iru is known for its numerous health benefits, including aiding digestion and providing essential nutrients. It can be used whole or blended into a paste to enhance the flavor of traditional African meals.
