100 tried-and-tested soup recipes, ranging from the classics to soups from faraway - Vietnam, Colombia, Japan, Sardinia and Spain.
It is often said that a cook's reputation hinges on the quality of his or her soup. Perhaps that is why many of us fight shy of making our own. With this book, Paul Gayler proves that making your own soup is easy and the results are nutritious and satisfying. Add to that the fact that soups are also an economical way to eat, whether you are using easy-to-source seasonal produce or expensive ingredients, which will go much further when made into a soup.
Great Homemade Soups includes 100 recipes, ranging from the tried-and-tested classics to soups from faraway - Vietnam, Colombia, Japan, Sardinia and Spain, to name just a few. There are broths and consommes, smooth and creamy soups, hearty and wholesome soups, traditional favourites, wild and exotic soups, and chilled soups. In addition to these, the book is sprinkled with Paul's Soups Masterclass lessons, which explain key techniques using clear step-by-step photographs. And if this weren't enough, Paul has invited contributions from some of his favourite world-class chefs, who have added their best-loved soup recipes to this tasty collection.
