Instructions:

Prepare the herb broth: Place all ingredients in a saucepan with 5
cups of water. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer for 10 to
15 minutes. Strain before using.

To make the soup: In a heavy-bottomed soup pot, saute onion and leek
in olive oil until translucent. Add chopped tomato. In a mortar and
pestle, pound the sun-dried tomatoes with their liquid to a paste,
then add to the pot with the sugar. Continue cooking over a
moderately high heat for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the garlic, grated
orange zest, and mint, and cook another 2-3 minutes. Gradually add
the herb broth, cover, then allow soup to simmer for 30-45 minutes
longer. (Soup may be prepared ahead of time up to this point.)

In a bowl, mix together yogurt and flour until smooth. Gradually add a
spoonful of hot soup, stirring contantly. Add another spoonful of
soup, then slowly add yogurt mixture to soup pot, stirring all the
while. Continue cooking soup over a gentle heat, stirring, being
careful not to let mixture curdle.

Adjust seasonings, then add the fresh parsley. Serve immediately. Ms.
Jacobs suggests fresh crusty bread, a green salads, olive and feta
cheese as suitable accomaniments.
