Tonight I made soup. This is something that always gives me great satisfaction -- akin to the food chemistry miracle of whizzing sugar and butter and eggs and flour into a sloppy mess and having it come out of the oven an hour later all golden and fragrant and cakey and delicious, the wonderful magic of soup that means you can throw all sorts of

Real soup technique? As far as I'm concerned, yours sounds like real soup technique to me :) Such is the magic of soup, after all! I didn't mention Everything Soup because, well, it's different every time and has no recipe other than what you say. But is still good :-9

One of my favourite soups is a good winter one... saute slowly some onion+garlic, add broccoli + cauliflower + a few other odd veg if you like (not too many others), add some stock, then at the end add a tin of evaporated milk and some light cheese. :D

Mmm, sounds like Generic Vegetable only creamier and with cheese, which of course makes everything better! I will definitely have to try that variation -- I like to sprinkle parmesan cheese on top or sometimes add a dollop of pesto, but putting cheese into the soup itself could be good too.

How much soup do those recipes make? (bearing in mind that I probably eat twice as much as a 'normal' person).

[foxe]

um... lots! With the recipe above, we ate a reasonable-sized bowl each and then I froze twice as much again. So probably serves at least six normal people, or maybe three of you :)
