Eating Asia’s Turkish Noodle Soup Recipe – Design*Sponge

The temperature is finally dropping close to freezing at night here in Rome, which is actually one of my favorite times of the year.  I love keeping the fireplace going and burrowing under a pile of warm blankets on the bed, and most of all I love winter foods.  I thought a very hearty soup would be a perfect way to start off the month of December.  The team from Eating Asia blog, Robyn Eckhardt and David Hagerman, have just the soup for us, and I am really happy to have learned about this dish.  It is a Turkish soup with tomato and green lentil soup with chewy noodles and crispy croutons, called kesme asi and it looks divine.  If you find you’re in need of a very hearty winter soup, you’ve found it!  Note- it can be made vegan-friendly with a couple of tiny adjustments.  –Kristina
