Tips:
- Use a variety of lentils. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Lentils also cook quickly, so they're a great option for a weeknight meal.
- Don't overcook the lentils. They should be tender but still hold their shape. If you overcook them, they'll become mushy and the soup will be less flavorful.
- Add a ham bone or smoked ham hock for extra flavor. This will give the soup a rich, smoky flavor. If you don't have a ham bone or hock, you can use a teaspoon of smoked paprika instead.
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, flavor, and nutrients to your soup. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and tomatoes.
- Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of vinegar or lemon juice for a little bit of acidity.
- Serve the soup with a side of bread or crackers. This will help to soak up the delicious broth.
