[@baylissfxbees2056]

There is no one on youtube I want so badly to meet and enjoy cooking with. Never change your style… everything - content, kitchen and indiviual style and presentation are unique and perfect :)❤

Appreciate the comment! Much love :)

[@steveday4797]

Definitely going to try this 😊, I feel a big crusty baguette is screaming to get dunked into it 👍👍

[@SpainonaFork]

Yes! Much love :)

[@williammaxwell1919]

This is another of your dishes I'll be cooking. Sometimes, when I cook soups like this, I skip the blending so as to enjoy the texture of betting into the lentils and vegetables.

[@SpainonaFork]

Sounds great! Much love :)

Love them lentils! I’m so thankful for all your great lentil and chickpea recipes! ❤. Edit: Very attractive plating.

Thanks for another delicious, body-and-soul-warming recipe! Lentils are the most iron-rich of all the legumes, so if you're mostly-vegetarian or vegan they are a perfect food to build up your red blood cells and prevent anemia. And the creamy texture of this soup is so luscious and tempting! I might have to use hot smoked Spanish paprika, and add a bit more hot pepper flakes, though. . . 😋

[@SpainonaFork]

Sounds great! Much love :)

I also like lentil soup a lot: its so simple and cheap to make, its warming, healthy and tasty. I prefer the turkish style however. Without red pepper and without tomatoes (the other things I do like you do). But I use red lentils, and I prefer my soup to be less thick. It shouldnt be runny, but not as thick as the one you showed us. Also, when serving, squeeze a few drops of lemon juice onto the soup. That really enhances the flavour. This, with a good bread, and I am happy and full :-).

[@williammaxwell1919]

I like it when people give their take on a recipe and reasons why, as it provides "what if I tried... " variants to the recipe; no recipe is set in stone

[@swissfoodie3542]

@@williammaxwell1919 Thanks William for your nice comment. I have been in Türkiye twice with my mother, and we really loved it there, also in matters of food (but also because of the very rich culture, history and especially because of the very hospitable and welcoming people). We love to eat when traveling and to discover new foods. And when I return home, I always try to make some of my favorite dishes. I am a soup person, and the turkish lentil soup is really a favorite for me. And the lemon juice makes a big difference. P.S. Just out of curiousity: where are you from in the US ? I am in Bern, Switzerland, and a very bad sleeper, hence I am on my laptop at 3am

Albert: Delicious. I'm making this one for sure as I have all the ingredients now, except the red bell pepper ← (so that's on my list). Thanks again, and have a great weekend. (Fan from San Francisco, California.) *!!~

[@SpainonaFork]

Same to you! Much love :)

[@ew2645]

Made the soup today and it’s perfect. I did have to do some slight modifications but I tried to keep it as minimal as possible. Rice vinegar instead of sherry because it wasn’t available and vegetable broth instead of water. Everything else is the same except I used slightly more of the spices. For the cracked red pepper I put a tablespoon in and blended with the rest of the soup. Still used 95% of the same ingredients but increased the quantity. Highly recommend. Meal prep’s beautifully.

[@SpainonaFork]

Sounds great! Much love :)

There are surprisingly many cold and chilly days in Spain 😅 but this looks great. I'm down with a cold and going to give this a try today, to give me some of that plant healing power! ☺

[@Selenes7]

Yes I can confirm it really was delicious! The bell pepper really adds a richness and brightness to it. I served it with a really high quality rustic baguette, and save to say, it was the best moment of my day! 😉♥

[@mjremy2605]

You do not wash lentils this way. Soak them in water and scrub. Running them under water does not clean them. Using a metal immersion blender inside a teflon pan is the surest way to eat little bits of teflon plastic in your soup. Do not use Teflon Pans. They are deadly. Lentils contain phytic acid, a natural compound that can make it harder for the body to absorb minerals like iron and zinc. However, lentils have less phytic acid than other common foods like corn, wheat, and soy. Soaking lentils before cooking can reduce the amount of phytic acid and improve the absorption of minerals and protein. Soaking also reduces tannins and trypsin inhibitors. Phytic acid is an anti-nutrient that binds to minerals in food, making them less available for the body to use. Hulled lentils, which have had their skin or seed coat removed, may have up to 50% less phytic acid than unhulled lentils. Trypsin inhibitors - Lentils have low molecular weight proteins that can bind to and inactivate the digestive enzyme trypsin Tannins - Lentils have tannins which form complexes with proteins, which can make it harder to digest protein and absorb amino acids. The good news: Lentils are high in fiber, protein, and minerals like iron and magnesium. They may help lower blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol and blood pressure, and protect the heart. This is why in India, we always soak lentils or rice or any grains, overnight with warm salted water, then drain it and rinse a few times. You remove most of the phytic acid, tannis, inhibitors and keep the good stuff. Also it is common in India when we make DAL, a lentil sauce, that we mix asafoetida or fennel, or ginger in it, all of which are digestive aids. Lentils are good for you if prepared correctly. What you are using here is called MASOOR DAL or Red Lentils. Great soup recipe, thank you!
