You, who dare insult lentil soup, sweetest of delicacies.
Aristophanes (c. 446-386 B.C.)
January nights are pretty chilly. I warmed up this evening with lentil soup at our favourite restaurant, where they add 'spicy' in front of the name. Hot red pepper aside, the soup's basic ingredients are red lentils, cumin, and water. Egyptian lentil soup is always served with fresh lemon. I love the 'spring' tang it adds to the soup's winter warmth.
