Chicken noodle soup just got way more interesting. Inspired by Egyptian bird tongue soup, this warming spice-tinged chicken broth is as comforting as it is flavorful. The real star here is the orzo. Toasted in butter until it’s deeply golden and nutty-fragrant, the pasta takes on a new personality. Unlike plain noodles, which quickly go limp in hot soup, well-toasted orzo stays al dente for longer, holding its shape and texture until you’ve doled out every bowl.
