Soups New
Merchant: Oxfam
Merchant's Category: Media> Books
Soup is pretty special. It can lift your spirits on a dreary day and warm you on a cold one. Yet nothing could be easier to make than soup. No special skills are required. As Dilwen Philips says in her introduction, anyone who can cut up vegetables can make soup. Today foodstuffs are available throughout the year, but there are still at least two excellent reasons to honour the seasons (lower cost and superior flavour) and so Dilwen divides the book into Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter soups. There are some time-honoured favourites here like Scotch Broth and Hearty Winter Vegetable. But many classics have been reworked: Leek and Potato is given a surprising new twist by the addition of lemongrass or lavender, and the flavour of root vegetable soups is made more vivid by roasting the vegetables in the oven before pureeing them. There are also a whole host of new recipes incorporating all sorts of up-to-the-minute flavours and ingredients; there's Butternut Squash and Apple soup, Artichoke, Spinach and Hazelnut Soup, Chicken and Pesto Soup and Red Bean with Guacamole Salsa. This is definitely not the sort of cookbook which is destined to languish unused on the kitchen shelf. Its delicious, but uncomplicated recipes will provide inspiration for many cheering and satisfying meals.
