Product Description

Ayamase sauce, a spicy green Nigerian stew, originates from the Yoruba people in Ikenne-Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria, named after Mrs. Felicia Mase, a local food vendor who made it famous by selling it with Ofada rice; the name comes from people asking for “Aya Mase’s sauce” (Obe Aya Mase), which became Ayamase, though it’s also called Designer Stew and is known for its vibrant green color from green peppers and unique flavor from locust beans (iru) and palm oil.
