Tutmaç Soup(Tutmaç Çorbası)
regional
A steppe soup where green lentils meet small pasta in a yogurt-based sauce; records from Çankırı document lentils, tutmaç dough, and yogurt together.
As the dough swells, the soup thickens; if it will be kept, a portion of hot water is separated.

Shortcuts worth knowing
How to order
The same dish changes name from city to city. Asking about an unfamiliar name is the shortest route.
Pick the good one
In an egg-lemon soup the lemon goes in last. Boiled after that, the mixture splits and turns grainy.
Right time
Tripe and head soups belong to the morning counter; late in the day you get the reheated pot.
