Week 18: Fesenjan (Pomegranate Walnut Chicken) from Iran

I don’t think I’ve ever had anything quite like this, but it was so so good! We might put this in regular rotation.

Week 19: Sancocho from Panama

Pretty decent chicken corn chowder. I did have to substitute sweet potatoes for cassava as I could not find any around here.

Week 20: Gazpacho from Spain

Incredibly delicious! This is most definitely a keeper! I will be pulling this out when it’s 90 degrees here.

Week 21: Miso from Japan

Simple to make and super tasty. I didn’t know that it was so easy to make miso. We will have to do this again when we get takeout sushi next time.

Week 22: Khao Soi from Laos

A Laotian take on ramen? A pork noodle soup? Either way, this was really really good! I think we will have to make it again.

Week 23: Coconut Sweet Potato Soup with Spicy Shrimp from Vanuatu

I had some reservations about this recipe, but it tasted amazing! We loved the sweet coconut flavored broth mixed with the spiciness from the shrimp. Next time, I am going to try to thicken the broth a bit, but overall, this was delicious.

Week 24: Butha-Buthe (Spinach and Tangerine Soup) from Lesotho

Pretty bland… the broth was tasty, but the starch really overwhelmed it.
