The Soup thread

**Sir Loris of Crowthorne** · 17th October 2005

Post your thoughts, feelings & opinions about soup in here.

You can anything from what soup you've had recently, to recipes you know about, to what your favourite soup is.

I just had French onion soup from my local soup vendor. In addition, I had a ham/cheese/spinach sandwich (toasted like) on brown.

:soup:

I'm sure Sumo will pop up with some far out soup talk here, but let's see what everyone else has to say. I'd like some food for thought here

i love soup...i could eat it everyday there are so many varieties

last night and today for lunch im having homemade chicken and threebean chili

im not a fan of cream based soups, although i am a sucker for a good crab or lobster bisque.

i prefer lots of veggies and either chicken, turkey, or beans

i love split pea as well...also one of my favorites but its not the same without the flavor from pork

Anyone dig gespacho? I like it, but it seems to be either rubbishy watery shite, or gorgeous cool niceness.

mmm yes gazpacho is really good...especially if its heavy on the basil. i prefer dipping it with a nice crusty italian more than just eating it with a spoon tho

This weekend I made pea and mint soup.

load of peas (500g), a bunch of spring onions, 2 pints chicken stock, 100ml of cream and a handful of chopped fresh mint (from the back garden). All blended till smooth after cooking the onions + mint for a bit and then adding the stock + peas + cream.

Fantastic.

That's the ticket Stacks

Fantastico.

Gazpacho is the biz too. Well done to whoever mentioned it first (even if you did spell it like a farmer). You'll be getting a jiffy bag through the post containing my own lemon meringue flavoured gazpacho.
