Chill in the Air ? Your fave Soups ?

@morning glory,

Day old light brown crusty rustic traditional country bread on left and the broken egg on right ..

It is an ancient country rural soup that has been served during the Lent for centuries and very simple to prepare ..

Yep. I thought it was an egg.

I like the Marx Brothers' Duck Soup, but something tells me I wouldn't like duck soup...

Stilton and Celery, Stilton and Cauliflower, Stilton and Leek. Basically, anything with Stilton in it.

I had forgotten all about Stilton in soup. How could I? Its such a good combination with vegetables. I make a simple potato and Stilton soup. Also watercress and Stilton. We are lucky to live near the Alresford which is a prime watercress growing area.

White Chili - that sounds interesting. How is that made?

All I know is that it's some kind of broth with chicken, vegetables and green chiles.

Apart from home-made soup I also enjoy the occasional tin of Heinz soup; Tomato and Scotch Broth being my favourites.

I used to love Heinz tomato soup as a kid. Unfortunately it's 2 quid a tin here so doesn't appear much on my weekly menus.

I make so many kinds of soup because they're easy to store and reheat. And, yes, having a warm soup on a cold day is always nice. For warming soups, it's hard to beat Thai Coconut Soup and Hot & Sour Soup. These provide a burn even when they cool down, depending on how spicy you make them.

But, for soups that can be meals, I also make quite a few chowders, stews, and gumbos. My favorite is probably New England Clam Chowder.

Probably the most famous of Thai soups - Tom Yam. This one is tom yam khung (prawn) gai (chicken).

That really does look good.

Which cheeses do you use for your onion soup ?
I use Swiss Raclette or Swiss Gruyere ..

I usually have Gruyere as it melts so well. I have heard of Raclette but haven't tried it yet.

My Mum makes a great soup using parsnips and ginger - I need to ask her what else. It is quite a spicy soup.

Thanks for the reminder! I will need to make list to take to the local Asian supermarket, since some of these ingredients can't be found anywhere else.

I am a grand fan of The Tom Yum Poh Tag, Fisherman´s Soup with prawns, clams, lemongrass, straw mushrooms, lime juice, squid, leaves of Kaffir lime, Thai chilies, basil and 3 tablesp. of thai fish sauce, I had in Phuket Island ..

Amazingly wonderful ..

I will post the récipe the next time I make it ..


Have a lovely evening Yorky & a great day, The late night Gourmet ..

@The Late Night Gourmet,

The only soup I have ever had in Manhattan was their Manhattan Clam Chowder,
which was fabulous.

I have the récipe and on occasion I prepare it from scratch with freshly netted clams ..

Thank you for your feedback and have a lovely day ..
