Hssoua (Barley Grit Soup)
If you were sitting in our family salon right now, I would serve you this. A traditional breakfast soup. Creamy barley grits cooked with milk, cumin, and plenty of olive oil. 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.
