soup

I found a recipe for a vegan soup which called for 1 1/4 quarts of red wine. This seems like a mistake but I don't know how to verify it. Is that large a quantity even reasonable? Perhaps it meant cups?

I have to say that this recipe looks amazing when served. The colour is fantastic and the texture spot on. But I am a little disappointed by the lack of flavours coming through. Perhaps it was the fact that I was lacking in fresh beetroot? My weight was just under the 500g required and my...

And another in the series of cold soups that I have been exploring this summer due to the hot weather we have been experiencing. This is actually a very nice and refreshing soup that is easy to eat despite the weather. It is so nice and easy that we are actually making it again. One thing I will...

I have something of a confession to make. I've never, ever had the traditional cold Spanish soup, gazpacho. That's the truth. Never. So given the current hot summer temps (39°C today) and my general lack of enthusiasm to easy anything even vaguely warm in such temperatures, we have been working...

This is a soup designed to be served cold from the fridge for those days when it is simply too hot to eat. Now I'm living in Australia, we have those summer days (winters are still cold though) and the second of them is upon us. So I started making the soup early in the morning (6:30am) before...

Carrots and cherry tomatoes soup garnished with cumin seeds and crumbled Taralli

Hi Local butcher gave me 3Kg of beef bone which I thought I would make into a hearty winter soup. I did a bit of googling and my inventiveness got as far as boil it with some pepper corns and bay leafs! Anyway, 6 hours later I removed the bones, fat lumps and returned the stripped off the...

I was thinking monochrome - a pure white soup with a wisp of black garnish. Celery & apples are a classic combination: think Waldorf salad, think cheeseboards. The Pernod adds an aniseed twist to this subtle soup and Parmesan adds savoury depth. A sharp apple is called for here, for otherwise...

I have a very old cookbook, one if the first, if not the first that I ever purchased for myself. We needed to cut costs. We were just out of university, my then fiance, now husband had just landed is his first job (accidentally, but that's another story). We were broke, living in a one up one...

I decided to pickle some ginger last weekend. I was unpacking groceries as they sat in a jar on the counter, and I started thinking about them together with the apples I had just bought. When I think of ginger, I think Asian food, so what followed just came naturally. I wanted to create a swirl...

This is from the book 'Living the Farm Sanctuary Life' by Gene Baur with Gene Stone which at first sight didn't appear to be either a dedicated recipe book or vegan, but is both. It was given to me whilst I was visiting in the UK back in August this year. Ingredients 2 cups brown lentils ¾...

Greek tomato and lentil soup

I went looking for this recipe earlier to use party of a massive head of cauliflower I bought at the weekend and couldn't find it anywhere. So with one clue as to which cookbook it was in, I went and looked it up. We've changed the recipe because the original calls for both dairy milk and...
