With the evenings getting longer and chillier and the winter soon upon us, I can’t help experimenting with soup recipes these days. As I mentioned already about… 200 times, I absolutely love Oriental cuisines, especially Japanese.
So this time, I’ve created an Oriental-inspired soup featuring black kale (cavolo nero) and Shitake mushrooms. If you’re craving Japanese food but feel cold, this recipe should make for an excellent fix.
