About Black pigeon pea soup

Black Pigeon Pea Soup is a hearty, protein-packed dish celebrated across Caribbean, African, and South Asian cuisines. Made using nutrient-rich black pigeon peas, this soup often incorporates an array of vegetables, aromatic spices, and herbs like garlic, turmeric, and thyme, creating a flavorful and nourishing meal. Traditionally, it may include ingredients like coconut milk for creaminess or chili for heat, reflecting its diverse cultural roots. High in fiber, plant-based protein, and essential minerals such as magnesium and iron, black pigeon peas contribute to heart health and sustained energy. Depending on preparation, it can be vegan or include smoked meats for added depth. While naturally low in fat, variations with coconut milk or oils may increase calorie content. Perfect as a meal or starter, this wholesome soup offers a balance of indulgence and nutrition.
