About Keshk soup

Keshk Soup, a staple of Middle Eastern cuisine, particularly Egyptian, is a hearty and comforting dish made from fermented wheat (keshk), yogurt, chicken or vegetable broth, and sautéed onions. Often seasoned with garlic, coriander, and black pepper, its creamy texture and tangy flavor make it a unique addition to traditional mealtime fare. Rich in probiotics from the fermented wheat and yogurt, Keshk Soup supports gut health and digestion. It also provides a good source of protein when made with chicken stock. While its nutrient density makes it a wholesome dish, it can be high in sodium depending on preparation, and the rich base can be caloric if excessive butter or oil is added. Traditionally served warm, this soup is a nourishing choice for cooler days and a wonderful example of how simple ingredients can create a deeply satisfying meal.
