About Soup nuts
Soup nuts, also known as mandlen, are small, crunchy, biscuit-like morsels commonly found in Ashkenazi Jewish cuisine. Made from a simple mixture of flour, oil or schmaltz (rendered chicken fat), eggs, and salt, they are baked to a golden crisp and often served as a topping for chicken soup or other hearty broths. Their origins trace back to Eastern Europe, where they gained popularity as a flavorful addition to traditional holiday meals. While soup nuts are an enjoyable source of texture and taste, their nutritional profile leans toward indulgence rather than health. They are high in carbohydrates and calories due to their flour and fat content, with limited protein and fiber. Nonetheless, their small size allows for mindful portioning, making them a delightful occasional treat. Home-made versions can be tweaked to include healthier oils or whole-grain flours for a more nutrient-conscious alternative.
