Semolina Soup
What you need
- 4 spoons semolina
- 1 spoon tomato paste
- butter
- stock
Salt, pepper, water and oil don’t count. Mom always had those.
What you do
Toast the semolina in butter until it smells nutty, stir in the paste, then pour in four cups of hot stock while whisking. Simmer ten minutes.
How it feels to make
Toasting semolina smells like biscuits and gives no hint of what it's about to become.
Mom wrote on the back
Whisk while the stock goes in. Stop whisking and you'll be picking lumps out.
