Avatar:Five-flavor soup

Five-flavor soup was prepared by Hama as part of a traditional Southern Water Tribe dinner she laid on for Team Avatar.

Five-flavor soup is one of many traditional Southern Water Tribe dishes. While the soup originally used thinly cut strips of seaweed, after the end of the Hundred Year War the dish evolved to employ long ropes of wheat from the Earth Kingdom and algae from warmer waters instead.

History

After Hama caught Team Avatar snooping around in her inn in 100 AG, she revealed herself to be from the Water Tribe and informed them that she had bought a vast amount of food to surprise them with a traditional Water Tribe feast. She mentioned that she did not have access to all the ingredients needed for the traditional meal, but apparently found what she needed to make the soup. Hama served the soup by waterbending it into the bowls of the four friends, much to the delight of Katara, who was thrilled to meet another waterbender from the Southern Water Tribe.
