What is Spicy Head-Broth Soup?
Spicy Head-Broth Soup is a hot, robust soup made with broth from a head, enriched with chilli peppers and spices. The “spicy” element distinguishes this punchier take on Turkish head-broth soups; recipes vary, so the broth may be smooth or contain small pieces of meat and other tender parts.
In Turkey, it is served piping hot at soup shops and at home, often as a substantial meal, including late at night. A squeeze of lemon or a little garlic and vinegar can brighten the rich broth, while the heat can be adjusted to taste. It provides protein, alongside fat from the broth; for a lighter meal, enjoy a modest bowl with salad rather than adding a large portion of bread.
