Description

This full-bodied celebration of soups, offers 60 recipes for soul-soothing, body-nurturing meals-in-one. From the heirloom Grandma Smith's Tomato Soup to the richly regional Puppy Drum Stew: A Fish Chowder North Carolina-Style, these are soups to fill the belly and stick to the ribs. Along with details on making soup stock (rather than relying on canned versions), Lembke offers instructions both practical and irreverent, concentrating far more on delectability than matters of calories and fat content.There are soups for mood and season - from the hot and spicy to the smooth and creamy; from the vegetarian to the meaty. Her recipes are accompanied by lush photos and charming anecdotes about the soups' origins, the Latin roots of nomenclature, entertaining tales from the author's garden, and enlightening personal vignettes.From Oxtail to Omnipotent Onion Soup, Soup's On! will please every palate and warm every heart. (7 1/4 x 7 1/4, 216 pages, color photos, recipes)… (more)
