What is Arabasi Soup?
Arabasi soup is a traditional Central Anatolian dish, especially associated with Yozgat. It consists of a hot, peppery broth made with chicken or turkey, often with shredded meat, served separately from a firm dough prepared with flour and water. The dough is chilled until set, then cut into small pieces.
At the table, diners spoon the spicy broth alongside pieces of dough; in the traditional way, the dough is swallowed without chewing. It is a warming, communal meal, often served in cold weather. The meat provides protein, while the dough contributes much of the carbohydrate. For a lighter bowl, use less dough and skim excess fat from the broth.
