  1. Hi @alfiecooks_
    Thanks for your dishes , they are amazing. You should try making Ukrainian Borscht for season 3 , can be both vegetable only or adding pork ribs .

  2. London Particular!! It doesn’t get enough love (nor do split peas for that matter) and it’s actually really delicious, just omit the bacon and it’d be 100% plant based.

  3. You can do a world tour and make the most representative or beloved soup from each country. Europe is full of ideas, not to mention Asia and Africa 😊

  4. Danish "Gule Ærter" (Yellow Peas)! It's a very traditional split pea soup here. Basically, you make a stock out of different cuts of pork (could be ham hock, smoked(!!) ham, pork belly, a Danish pork sausage called medisterpølse.) and aromatics like carrot, leeks and celeriac. Obviously, they have different cooking times. Then, you cook the peas in that for many hours until they split and add cubed up veggies (again carrots, leeks, celeriac or other root veg). Some versions take two days to make, which is why I associate it with special occations and gatherings, especially in winter and early spring. But of course, recipes vary across the country and there are much faster versions. You serve the different cuts of meat (cold) on the side with Danish style rye bread, pickled beets and gherkins and lots of mustard! And ofc akvavit!
