Arabasii soup is a traditional Turkish dish served with pieces of firm dough. The soup is made with beef, broth, and spices; the dough is usually prepared separately and eaten alongside it rather than stirred into the pot.
Arabasii soup is traditionally eaten with small pieces of its accompanying dough. Dip or pair a piece of dough with a spoonful of hot soup; in the customary style, the dough is swallowed without chewing. Take small bites if you are unfamiliar with the texture.
Arabasii soup is strongly associated with Yozgat in central Anatolia, Turkey. It is also made in other parts of the region, where the combination of spiced meat soup and separately prepared dough is a distinctive shared-meal tradition.
Arabasii soup combines meat broth, beef, and spices, and it is served with dough. Recipes differ between households and regions, particularly in the choice of meat and level of seasoning; the dough is commonly cooked and cooled separately.
The dough for Arabasii soup is made by cooking flour with water and salt until thick, then spreading it in a tray to cool and set. Once firm, cut it into pieces and serve them beside the hot soup.
Arabasii soup is often seasoned with pepper and can be quite spicy, but the heat varies by recipe. When making it at home, add hot pepper gradually and taste as you go so the seasoning suits your preference.
This version of Arabasii soup uses beef, although meat choices can vary among regional and household recipes. Slowly cooking the beef until tender makes it easier to shred or serve in pieces with the seasoned broth.
Arabasii soup is traditionally served with its firm dough, which is central to the dish rather than an optional side. Cut the cooled dough into bite-sized pieces and bring it to the table alongside bowls of hot soup.
Yes, you can freeze the soup portion of Arabasii soup in an airtight, freezer-safe container. Freeze the dough separately because freezing and thawing can change its firm texture; thaw the soup in the refrigerator and reheat it thoroughly.
The dough is served separately with Arabasii soup because its firm, cooled texture is part of the traditional way to eat the dish. Keeping it out of the pot also prevents it from breaking down and thickening the broth.

Arabasii soup is a traditional dish associated especially with Yozgat and Turkey’s central Anatolia. It pairs a hot, spiced meat broth—often prepared with beef—with firm dough made from flour, water and salt. The dough is cooked, cooled until set, then cut into pieces for serving.
It is especially popular at winter gatherings: diners dip a piece of dough into the broth and traditionally swallow it without chewing. The broth contributes protein, while the dough makes the meal more filling and supplies much of its carbohydrate. Adjust the chilli to taste, and serve it with a simple salad if you’d like a lighter contrast.
