How to roll Eba to make it look fancy and presentable

Something about packaging food nicely is that it makes it inviting and irresistible.

Food packaging is twice as important as the taste and quality of the food itself. Right?

The truth is as beautiful and valuable as a thing might be, it doesn't always look appealing to the human eye until you've given it some sort of beautiful, neatly done finishing.

Nigeria has got so much nice and tasty dishes that a good number of us underestimate and probably toss into a corner when we go to one of these fancy eateries to get something to eat probably because we feel too packaged to dig into such meal in public places.
Well, guess what? Our foods' got their own style and packaging as well. You just need to be creative with these foods and learn how to style them.
So today's food for style is our local Eba. Packaging this great delicacy in the nicest way possible will make anyone and everyone fall in love with it.

Anyway, let's get to it. How to roll Eba.

Things you need

1. Rolling pin
2. Transparent nylon (the one you use in wrapping swallows)
3. Chopping board or any flat surface

Direction

1. Make the Eba. I'm sure we all know how to make this meal as it is one of the easiest food any Nigerian can make.
2. Open one of the sealed ends of the nylon so that you have just a single layer.
3. Spread the nylon on the chopping board or on a flat surface.
4. Scoop the Eba on the nylon (at the middle).

5. Use another nylon to cover the Eba.
6. Take the rolling pin and roll it out to form a rectangular shape.
After scooping the Eba on a nylon on a flat surface, cover it with another nylon. Use a rolling pin to form a rectangular shape, remove the nylon on it and roll the eba to the other edge using the nylon underneath.  (Active kitchen)
7. Take out the nylon on top of the Eba and use the one underneath to fold/roll the Eba till you get to the edge.
There you go! Well packaged Eba rolls.

Cockroach milk four times as nutritious as cow milk – Scientists

Some scientists have made a stunning discovery leading to the propagation that “not only is cockroach milk fast becoming a part of our food chain and diet, it’s even referred to as the super food of the future.” National Daily  gathered that an international team of scientists from the Institute of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine (inStem) in Bangalore, India, recently discovered the structure of milk protein crystal from the guts of a cockroach species, leading to their conclusion that “It’s more than four times as nutritious as cow’s milk and it could be the key to feeding their growing population in the future.” Leonard Chavas, one of the scientists behind the research and his colleagues examined the species, also known as  Diploptera punctata,  which is the only specie of cockroach known to be viviparous, able to bring forth live babies that have developed within the mother’s body, instead of the mother laying eggs to develop outside her body.

Read Below. Can you recall how you started your acting career? I used to act very well in church and people loved it whenever I came on stage. Even before I mounted the stage, people would already be screaming in excitement and the cleric would then have to caution them so that everybody could hear what I had to say. It was the interest and love that people had for me that motivated me to take acting serious. Meanwhile, there was a friend of mine who we used to act together and go about performing in churches. He was part of a group that used to meet for rehearsals somewhere close to where I lived. One day, he told the members of his group that he had a friend who could act. They told him to invite me and when I got there, they asked me if
