Description
Supply your international grocery aisles, specialty markets, or commercial kitchen with our premium Fresh-Frozen Shredded Okazi Leaves (Gnetum africanum). Also widely known as Ukazi, Afang, Eru, or M’fumbua across West and Central Africa, this highly prized wild leaf vegetable is harvested at peak freshness, finely shredded, and flash-frozen to retain its vibrant green color, signature firm texture, and rich nutrient profile.
Okazi leaves are celebrated for their distinctive glossy, fibrous structure and mild, earthy flavor. Unlike dried varieties that require extended soaking, these fresh-frozen leaves soften beautifully when simmered while maintaining a satisfying culinary bite. They are the essential star ingredient in iconic regional delicacies, including Nigerian Okazi Soup and Afang Soup, Cameroonian Eru / Okok, Central African M’fumbua, and traditional Igbo salads (Abacha). Packed in a wholesale master case of twenty-five 8 oz (227g) retail-ready packs, this frozen line offers maximum storage life, effortless portion control, and high turnover for African and international specialty food retailers.
