My opinion:

The recipe for German lentil soup that I was given includes ingredients that are not traditionally used in the dish, such as pasta and tomatoes. In a traditional German lentil soup, you would usually ingredients like potatoes and sausage or ham. While the recipe is still tasty, it deviates from the traditional flavors and ingredients that are expected in normal german lentil soup.

The taste itself was ... fine? I think? I probaly won't make it again lol
