Fresh ponmo refers to cow skin that has not been smoked or processed through other preservation methods. It is essentially raw cow skin that is typically used in cooking after thorough cleaning and preparation. In Nigerian cuisine, fresh ponmo is often boiled or pressure-cooked until tender before being incorporated into soups, stews, or other dishes.
Fresh ponmo has a neutral flavor and a chewy texture similar to gelatin when cooked properly. It absorbs flavors well from the surrounding ingredients, making it a popular choice for adding texture and depth to dishes like pepper soup, okra soup, and various Nigerian soups and stews.
