Book Description

3 Sep 2007

The finest soup recipes from the top chefs of today, from Rick Stein and Delia Smith to Giorgio Locatelli and Jamie Oliver.

Few foods make us feel as good as soup. From the thick tomato soup of childhood to restorative spicy concoctions on chilly evenings, soup and well-being go hand in hand. Now this fantastic collection brings together 100 recipes from top food writers and chefs at work today. From Delia Smith’s Cauliflower Soup with Roquefort to Jamie Oliver’s Chickpea, Leek and Parmesan Soup, there are soups here for every need, whether quick post-work suppers or more sophisticated ideas to serve friends. Headed up by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, who introduces the book and gives his practical advice on stocks and key soup-making techniques, it takes a seasonal approach so you can get the best from fresh ingredients. Quirky, interesting photography and design make this a book with real personality, and royalties will go to homeless charities, including the Salvation Army and Centrepoint.

Few foods make us feel good as soup. From the thick tomato soup of childhood to restorative spicy concoctions on chilly evenings, or a low-fat meal at lunchtime, soup and well-being go hand in hand.

Format:Hardcover
Finally a book totally devoted to a cheap, nutritious and delcious food. With this book you can eat soups throughout the year with recipes from top chefs. The one that caught my attention straight away was for chocolate soup. The perfect combination of my two favourite foods!

4.0 out of 5 stars Souperb 3 Jan 2007
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
An excellent book on soup.

If you want to make soup, I can't think that you need another book - excellent recipes. The celebrity chef inputs are inspiring and you do get great variety - the soups ranging from the simple to the more recherché. You also get various individual twists on different soups - which seems to prompt you to invent your own twists (normally conditioned by what you have or do not have in your fridge).

The layout is good too, but there is nothing particularly wonderous about the photography. In fact, the pictures which crop up throughout the book of a poorly-maintained allotment in winter are superfluous, irrelevant and mildly depressing. But you don't have to look at them and they don't stop you cooking soups.

A good idea too to set out the soups in seasons. This helps you concentrate on things for which you are likely to find the right ingredients at non-wallet-busting prices and with smaller carbon footprints. And you are probably going to want to cook hearty soups in winter and more refreshing ones in summer.

This is a lot of soup for your money. Heartily recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good read but rarely used
When I bought this book I was hoping for a book with simple easy to make recipes (soups should be easy I think). Some of the recipes are just too overcomplicated.
