Just when you think you’re familiar with all the eggplant stews, you stumble upon this one. And what a one. So surprising. So good. So different. Guests raved. And so do we. We are going to make this very often.

What a combination this is. Celeriac and red bell pepper are not a natural combination, but in this soup they definitely are. Totally complementary to each other. And the tahina makes it a creamy, nutty whole. Delicious.

Zucchini becomes this hit of the night in one fell swoop when you serve it this way. Full of flavor, delicious tahina sauce on top, the spicy za’atar and then the crispy and clearly present sage on top. How delicious.

I used to make sweet potato pear salad… and suddenly thought … That could also be a great soup. But it shouldn’t stay and be too sweet either. And so I added some fenugreek. And that was a great find, if I do say so myself. And then add a few caramelized walnuts and it was complete.
