Lentils have been popular in Jewish cuisine since ancient times. Remember the biblical Esau, who sold his sacred birthright for a simple lentil soup? Such is the love for humble beans, which, however, magically transform in the presence of bright oriental spices and happily absorb their aromas. After some time, the lentil soup begins to exude such a spicy spirit that you involuntarily begin to understand the foolish Esau.
