When I join my wife for lunch by the university we sometimes go to Café Pomegranate. While this is primarily a Persian restaurant, sometimes they go a bit wild with their soup of the day. Last week it was lemon grass soup. It was so good that I decided that I would have to deconstruct it.

One of our favorite meals during our stay in Hong Kong was tandoori chicken. What—you might think—does Hong Kong have to do with Indian food? When the British took possession of Hong Kong in 1841, they brought many Indian servants with them. After a hundred and fifty years some of these servants became entrepreneurs, some starting their own businesses and becoming quite wealth. As a result—at least 20 years ago—Hong Kong had some truly excellent Indian restaurants, tucked away is surprising corners.

Jan’s friend needed a soft soup after her oral surgery and Jan’s family is descending upon us. Blended soups are the order of the day. In addition to Ezo Gelin and Maafe, I will be making another soup I have made before, Avgolemono.

I am making a Moroccan feast for my birthday dinner. A tajine is frequently served over a bed of couscous. I decided that my vegetable tajine needed a lemon couscous. I looked at several recipes, but they all seemed very shy with the lemon juice.
