.3 1/2 Deciliters Onions -- Chopped
.1/2 Teaspoon Salt

.3/4 Deciliter Dry White Wine
.3 1/2 Deciliters Carrots -- Julienned
.Teaspoon Dried Thyme

Recipe



1. In a large stockpot over medium-high heat, saute onions with salt in oil until soft but not browned. Add wine, carrots, thyme, and marjoram, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes.
2. Add lentils and cook for 2 more minutes. Add stock and bring to a boil. Lower heat to simmer and cook, covered, until lentils are soft (about 30 minutes).
3. Before serving, remove pot from heat and stir in miso and, if needed, soy sauce to taste. Garnish with grated carrots and chopped green onions.
Serving Ideas : Serve with sourdough bread.
NOTES : This soup has an aroma and dark flavor that works
well in a European menu -- perhaps with a caraway-studded rye bread, Balkan Cold Cucumber Salad, and a frosty mug of
German beer. Because the flavors need time to blend, let this
soup sit overnight, if possible, before serving.
