What's that one soup you enjoy most?

Just a thick vegetable soup for me please. I like most soups except mushroom, and especially cream of mushroom which makes me want to hurl. Don't get me wrong, I love mushrooms, but that thick grey heavy liquid slop is nauseating and cloying. It's just not right at all.

Another vote for Heinz Tomato

Heinz C of Tomato is a regular favourite. If out and about a good French Onion goes down well.

Heinz C of T for me also - used to like it with boiled potato in it.

I had a lovely home made mushroom and tarragon soup at Claydon House in Bucks yesterday. Very nice.

I must say that tomato soup is definitely not for me.

I've always wondered about home made soup, whose home is it made in?

Not mine.

The soup I enjoy the most is definitely any soup that is homemade. In addition to the above homemade choices suggested I'm surprised no one mentioned a good old fashioned homemade chicken noodle soup with lots of vegetables. And the best flavored soup always starts with homemade broth too. Cooking up the bones/marrow really does give the tastiest soup.

On today's menu though is a cauliflower soup.

Bon Appetit,

Absolutely Doug - homemade food is always best,
homegrown fruit & veg' too!

It's made at the Heinz factory - the home of canned soup.

It was our 10th Wedding Anniversary (symbolised by gifts of tin/aluminium) last week so I bought Mrs markah a tin of Heinz Cream Of Tomato soup (well at least it wasn't Tesco value beans!), knowing it's her favourite. It was difficult to disguise it when I wrapped it though. Of course, she was overjoyed - just looking forward to our 11th now!

Probs it's a similar scenario to how good a previous night's curry tastes when reheated the next day ...in both cases the ingredients have marinated together longer therefore taste better!

NO SOUP FOR YOU!



I like a good fish soup.

My mum's "home made" tattie soup......but it's been a while and maybe, just maybe it wasn't as good as I remember!

Boxing day soup.

The base is the last load of water and cider that the Christmas ham was boiled in on Christmas eve before being roasted. It's therefore also got bayleaves and cloves and what not in it. On Boxing day you just add more ham, turkey, left over vegetables to what is now a rich ham stock and it's just magic.

Another vote for Pumpkin soup, lose the Pernod though.

Minestrone soup with garlic bread. Nothing better before spaghettis or veal!

Bye.

Chicken Ramen

Chinese hot and sour soup

Cheese and bacon chowder.

Has to be cream of celery.....

I might have some soup tonight.

Anyone recommend something a little different?

Dear All,

When i was a student in Plymouth UK back in the 80's after going to a beach of Plymouth we used to retire to a fabulous pub and a bowl and what was called:

Grotty Nosh

It was mid way between a Soup and Casserole, probably left over of a variety of roasts etc but very very Scrummy with a large piece of freshly baked bread and a pint of bitter refreshment.

Gorgeous and warming and great value. Warmed you after the Atlantic.

regards David

I love Mulligatawny too.

Now you're enjoying the heat in Aus' do you enjoy gazpacho soup?
