Описание

Исходное описание на английском языке. Русский перевод ещё не добавлен.

Maraq is a delicate and aromatic Yemeni lamb (or chicken) broth soup that is traditionally served at the beginning of the meal. Each family and restaurant makes a different maraq stock, so it may be simmered with garlic, turmeric, onions, coriander, pepper, or cinnamon, depending on personal preferences. The stock can also act as a base for numerous other dishes, such as salta , a stew that is also the national dish of Yemen. Maraq is also a natural remedy for sick people, and it is often served to women who just gave birth, in order to strengthen them. The soup is traditionally served with fresh slices of lemon which should be squeezed in it for that extra flavor.
