Çiriş herb soup is a traditional spring soup made with the leaves of çiriş, a wild edible plant used in parts of eastern and southeastern Turkey. It is usually cooked with onion and tomato paste, with grains or yogurt added in some regional versions.
Çiriş herb soup is made by cooking cleaned, chopped çiriş leaves with sautéed onion and often tomato paste. Some cooks add bulgur or rice; others finish the soup with yogurt. These homemade versions are minimally processed, though packaged products may differ.
Çiriş herb soup has a mild, leafy, green-vegetable flavor, with onion and tomato paste adding savoriness. Versions made with yogurt taste tangier, while bulgur or rice gives the soup a heartier texture.
Çiriş herb soup is associated especially with eastern and southeastern Turkey, where the wild herb is gathered in spring and appears in regional home cooking. Ingredients and preparation vary between towns and families.
Çiriş herb soup is most often made in spring, when fresh çiriş is available in local markets and foragers gather it. Dried or frozen leaves can be used outside the season, though their texture may differ from fresh leaves.
To prepare çiriş for çiriş herb soup, trim away the roots and tough parts, chop the leaves, then rinse them several times. Soil can cling between the leaves, so discard the water if sediment collects at the bottom.
Çiriş leaves are the defining ingredient in çiriş herb soup, and many recipes also use onion and tomato paste. Bulgur, rice, yogurt, or egg may be included depending on the regional recipe; there is no single fixed ingredient list.
There is no exact substitute for çiriş in çiriş herb soup, since its flavor and texture give the dish its identity. Spinach or chard can make a similar leafy soup, but the result will taste different and is better described as an adaptation.
Serve çiriş herb soup hot with bread or a simple salad. If the recipe is yogurt-based, avoid adding a sharp or heavily dressed side that overwhelms its tangy flavor; a plain accompaniment lets the herbs stand out.
Çiriş herb soup keeps for about 2–3 days in a covered container in the refrigerator once cooled. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat; yogurt-based versions can separate or lose their smooth texture if repeatedly reheated.

Çiriş herb soup is a regional spring dish from eastern and southeastern Anatolia, made with çiriş, a tender wild plant gathered when it comes into season. The greens are chopped and cooked in a broth, often with onion and rice or bulgur; recipes vary from household to household, so the soup may be brothy or more substantial.
Its flavour is gently savoury and herbaceous, and it is usually served hot as a simple lunch or supper, with bread or a bowl of yoghurt alongside. The vegetables give it fibre, and çiriş is also noted for iron and vitamin C. For a lighter bowl, keep the oil modest and let the greens provide most of the body.
