Soppa tal-Armla

Widows soup, a Maltese favorite, is another one of those foods for which every family has its unique recipe. The use of cauliflower and little Maltese goat cheeses known as bejna, which are dropped into the soup whole in the last five minutes of cooking, appears to be something they all agree on. Each diner receives their own full cheese, which functions as a molten flavor bomb in the center of your soup.

Widow's soup can now be prepared in a variety of ways. The major components, however, are fresh Maltese vegetables like peas and broad beans. The widow's soup is a classic Maltese soup that is simple but excellent. It became particularly popular throughout Malta's most trying periods in history, such as during both World Wars, due to its low-cost components. Unfortunately, despite its healthy flavor, it is not as popular with the newer Maltese generations.
