Soups for Every Season

Delicious soups that are easy to cook and a wonderful way to make the most of seasonal produce. A bowl of soup makes a delicious dish at any time of year, whether it is a starter, light lunch or a complete meal. In winter it can be hearty, thick and comforting; in summer it can be light, chilled and refreshing. This book is a collection of tempting recipes created to make the most of seasonal produce available at those times of year when it is at its best, most flavoursome and most abundant. Whether it is beans or tomatoes from the garden, pick-your-own produce at a local farm, or bought from your local supermarket or farm shop, making soup is always a great way to enjoy plenty of vegetables, sustainably sourced fish (which is also a seasonal product), meat, and even fruit. - Includes many classics, recipes that are flexible, and some that are more innovative, using unusual blends of flavours and textures that will surprise and tantalize. - Includes ideas for simple garnishes, recipes for stock, and accompaniments such as Parmesan crisps and goats' cheese crostini. Each recipe also includes instructions for making soups in your microwave and slow cooker.
