About

This traditional Greek winter staple, revithia soupa, is enjoyable in any season, even during the hot summer months. Compared to other soups based on pulses, which are often very hearty, this has a unique lightness in terms of both flavour and texture. It can be eaten as an appetizer or can be a delicious, healthy main meal with fresh bread and feta cheese.
