"Near the UIC campus, Cairo Kebab — one of the city’s few Egyptian restaurants — serves a soup made of green leaves that’s popular in several Middle Eastern countries. Molokhia is a warm and comforting bowl with a broth made of chicken stock and often served with roasted chicken. It’s soothing and very popular with children. It’s an ideal cold remedy and habit-forming. Read on for the story behind this soup." - Naomi Waxman
