Oatmeal Soup (Chorba Dyal Tchicha)
If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. A creamy, comforting breakfast soup made by simmering barley grits or rolled oats in milk, flavored with a touch of anise. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.
