directions

  • Place the lentils and water in a soup pot or dutch oven and bring to a boil.
  • Cover, lower the heat to a simmer, and cook for about 15 minutes.
  • Add onion, carrots, celery, cumin, and mustard, and continue to simmer, covered, until the lentils are very soft (about 15 more minutes).
  • Add small amounts of additional water, if it seems to thick.
  • Add the garlic, apricots, and salt, cover, and let it simmer for another 15 minutes or so.
  • Stir in the vinegar, black pepper, and cayenne to taste (and correct the salt too, if necessary). At this point the soup will keep for several days.
  • Serve hot, topped with extra dried apricots if desired.
