Armenian Apricot Soup

I found this apricot and lentil soup recipe at 101 Cookbooks but it originates from a book called The Soup Peddler's Slow & Difficult Soups. The slowness and difficulty refers to the fact that the soup peddler delivers all his homemade soups by bike - not the complexity of the recipes.

I enjoyed the soup because it's a departure from other lentils soups that I've tried. Many lentil soups combine the earthy flavour of lentils with other earthy flavours. The sweet and fruity tastes of apricots is different and works well.

You should try Armenian Apricot soup too.
