Ash Reshteh is a traditional Persian noodle and bean soup, often served at Iranian ceremonies and celebrations such as Chaharshanbe Suri and Sizdah Bedar, and it is absolutely delicious.

Maybe it is just me but, I love Indian, Middle-Eastern and Persian cuisines. Just a notch lower than Italian (pizza of cos!). I am always drawn in by the wonderful combination of spices and herbs. The great thing is most of the dishes are cooked in a pot or a skillet and most of the ingredients are commonly used in any kitchen.I dare not say that this recipe is 100% authentic; I had researched all over the internet for some Persian recipes and somehow or rather, I took bits and pieces to combine into this soup. Persian cuisine isn't new, it is just not-well-known.I can't find any fresh Kashk or yogurt whey in the place I reside, so I decided to make 1 from scratch. This is a quick and simple way. Please get your hands on whole milk or full fat yogurt. Greek style or low fat will not work. Without much further ado, let's get started with the recipe.

I been on an off eating This since before I got pregnant with my first son who is 12 now. While pregnant with him I lost 25lbs. This is a good soup to eat and lose weight and get full!

My family used to eat at Shoney's when traveling because there weren't any near our home town and we loved the food. I really enjoyed their soup and salad bar and my favorite soup was their cabbage beef which I never saw in a can in the grocery store so I came up with my own recipe.This recipe tastes even better after it's been refrigerated over night. I put a few clean jars of this soup in the refrigerator while it's hot and store it for up to a week after making.You can use less broth if you want lower sodium but make sure you add water in place of it.

Don't be worried about all the cabbage....I am not a cabbage fan but this is the best soup ever! Let's call it vegetable soup with a lot of cabbage!

This is a great soup I made in my new round Dutch oven pot on the stove. So good!!!! You can choose what ground meat u like best or split 1 pd of one, & 1 pd of another.

This is my father's recipe. Omit the chorizo and use vegetable stock cube to turn it into a vegetarian soup.

NOT THE RECIPE—I looked one up on google

Someone shared this with me at our weekly Weight Watchers meeting. It turned out being much more delicious than I expected.

The recipe calls for 1/2 cup white rice but we don't eat any rice so I leave it out. Also you can add a can of green beans
