TOMATO & RED LENTIL SOUP
While researching Sumac for the NA*ME Forum, I stumbled across this recipe. YUM! The secret ingredient is sumac. Sumac is a sour spice used almost like salt in some parts of the Middle East. It's also an ingredient of za'atar, a table seasoning frequently sprinkled on flat breads.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrot, and cook until softened (a few minutes). Add the garlic, then, in a minute add the tomatoes and stock.
- Simmer for about 20 minutes, season, and let it cool.
- Puree the soup, then strain back into the pot. This removes tomato skins and most seeds.
- Add the lentils and return to a low simmer.
- Taste a lentil in about 15 minutes to see if it's tender. If not, continue cooking, but don't let them get mushy.
- Add the sumac and parsley. Taste for seasoning and add lemon juice if you like.
