Dongzhi lamb soup (yangrou tang)Lamb and ginger soup

Yangrou tang is the Winter Solstice soup of Shandong and northern Jiangsu, where Dongzhi, the longest night, is a day to eat lamb and warm the body for the cold months; people say a bowl on Dongzhi keeps you from feeling the chill all winter. Lamb bones and meat are boiled hard until the broth turns milky white and rich, then seasoned simply with ginger, salt and white pepper. The broth is smooth and comforting, the sliced meat tender. Serve in deep bowls with coriander, chilli oil and warm flatbread or sesame buns to tear in. Chef's tip: season with salt only at the table or at the very end; salting early tightens the meat.

DushbaraTiny lamb dumplings in broth

Dushbara is the test of a patient cook in Azerbaijan: dumplings so small that a dozen fit on a spoon, filled with lamb and onion and served in clear bone broth. Families in Baku and the Absheron towns make them for New Year and Novruz, everyone sitting around the table folding together. At the table each bowl gets dried mint, a little crushed garlic in vinegar, and sumac. Over-filling is the usual problem; too much meat and the edges won't seal, so the dumplings open in the pot. Chef's tip: make the broth from lamb bones the day before and chill it, so you can lift off the fat and the soup stays crystal clear.

Yangrou paomoLamb soup with flatbread

Order this soup in one of the old Hui restaurants around Xi'an's Drum Tower and you are handed a dense, barely leavened flatbread and expected to tear it yourself into pea-sized crumbs while you chat; the kitchen then cooks it in rich lamb broth until each crumb is soft yet still chewy. Slices of tender lamb, glass noodles and wood ear mushrooms go in too, and the bowl comes with sweet pickled garlic and chilli sauce on the side. It is a soothing, filling soup, especially on Xi'an's freezing winter mornings. Expect a deep, clean lamb flavour scented with warm spices. Chef's tip: tear the bread small, no bigger than a soybean; big lumps stay doughy in the middle.
