Maybe you already read the story of this soup in the previous post, but all that you need to know is that it was a compromise between 'healthy' and 'tasty' food.
Turmeric plays a fundamental role in this soup, it can't be omitted.

It s so rare that turmeric has a starring role in a dish. Usually it s just added for color. Delicious soup. I love kale.
