Shiitake, Mixed Nuts and Red Date Soup

Why people make this soup

Nourilo came home from the dried-goods shop with plump cashews, fresh walnuts and a bag of chickpeas, and decided to build a vegetarian pot around them with shiitake and red dates. No pork bone needed — the nuts and mushrooms give it body and a fragrant, gently sweet flavour. Traditionally this combination is associated with supporting the kidneys and a weak lower back.
