The Ewedu broom is a specialized cooking utensil used primarily in Nigerian and West African cuisine to prepare ewedu soup, a staple dish made from jute leaves. Crafted from natural fibers or thin, sturdy sticks, this broom is used to break down and blend the cooked leaves into a smooth, sticky consistency without the need for modern blenders. It is lightweight, easy to use, and an integral part of traditional cooking methods passed down through generations. The Ewedu broom represents both functionality and cultural heritage, preserving the authenticity of African culinary traditions while remaining a sustainable and eco-friendly kitchen tool.
