pepper soup

Fiery West African

Pepper soup is a spicy West African broth, typically made with meat or fish simmered in a peppery, aromatic stock seasoned with local spices and hot peppers.

It's served as a starter, a restorative, or a main dish: We ordered goat pepper soup to warm up.

The heat level varies by region and cook, but the dish is meant to be boldly flavored.
