This publish affords a scrumptious and fairly particular authentic soup from my domestic us of a Romania. Informally, we name this "the queen of soups", and it's far considered an extraordinary delicacy. it is candy, bitter and garlicky, with many different subtle flavors that mix collectively underneath the floor. The soup is so easy that many of these aromas are magical: the visitors are left thinking in which they all come from while the dish appears to simplest have water, tripe, and a couple of vegetables. the obvious solution is that all these mysterious flavors come from the chef's suave method, that's the reason I generally go together with. Serve warm with a pickled hot pepper, and it's going to offer an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.
