This version stays true to its restaurant-style roots, while being easy to prepare at home.
Sweet Potato & Peanut Soup (West African–Inspired) is a soul-warming, creamy, and flavorful dish rooted in West African culinary tradition. Often referred to as Groundnut Soup in regions like Ghana, Nigeria, and Senegal, it’s typically made with ground peanuts (or peanut butter), vegetables, and aromatics. This version leans plant-based, hearty, and deeply nourishing — perfect for chilly nights or when you need something both comforting and bold.
Egg Drop Soup — also known as Dan Hua Tang (蛋花汤) — is a classic Chinese comfort soup that’s delicate, silky, and deeply satisfying despite its simplicity. It features tender egg ribbons gently swirled into a savory broth, often enriched with scallions, ginger, and a dash of white pepper.
