Rashouf

Jordan · Middle East and North Africa

Short description
This warming soup is creamy, tangy, grainy, and filling.
Ingredients
Brown lentils, cracked wheat or bulgur, jameed or yogurt, onion, olive oil, ghee, salt, black pepper, and pickles or bread.
Cultural note
It is associated with cold-weather meals where dried yogurt gives lentils and grain a sharp savory base.
Common misconception
It is not plain lentil soup; fermented dairy gives the broth its signature tang.
