Finally, I got my second chance to make my lentil soup and reclaim my reputation as a decent cook. This time, I had the red lentils and even though it ended up being slightly on the boring side (no cayenne pepper), it was good enough. Now they can all go back to South Korea, Norway and Uppsala and remember me as the crazy Finn-Swede who skied far too fast, skinny dipped in the far to cold Pacific Ocean and made a decent lentil soup. I would say that’s a pretty decent impression to make.
