[Niamh]

Too many to count. Unless it's fish I'll eat and enjoy pretty much any soup. Great, now I'm hungry :p

[Niamh]

What on earth is taco soup, Shalot?

[papayahed]

What on earth is taco soup, Shalot?

I was just thinking that???


Add Mole Soup to my list. mmmmmmm mmmmm.

[applepie]

I love all kinds of soups, but here are a few of my favorites:

French Onion
Broccoli Cheese
Homemade Chicken Noodle
Tortilla Soup

[soundofmusic]

It's a competition between two home mades:

Lobster bisque and french onion with provolone a piece of french bread and provolone toasted over it.

[Katy North]

Sometimes my husband makes me something completely unhealthy yet delicious... Butternut squash soup with bacon. Ohhhh, yummy... :biggrin5:

[JuniperWoolf]

Lobster bisque really has no equal.

[DanielBenoit]

Soup is scary. Idk, it's just something about drinking liquid out of a bowl that freaks me out :sick:

[OrphanPip]

The dirty jokes I could make about this...

Haha

Anyway I think I like cream of leek or cream of broccoli most.

[DanielBenoit]

The dirty jokes I could make about this...


Haha, I almost intuitively knew that it would be you to say that :lol:

[Niamh]

What on earth is taco soup, Shalot?

I was going to ask the same thing...

I was just thinking that???


Add Mole Soup to my list. mmmmmmm mmmmm.

?? mole soup? :confused5:

[soundofmusic]

Lobster bisque really has no equal.

:cheers2::cornut::iagree:
I used to make conch chowder: hot peppers, bacon...wonderful. I also like to make a bouillabaise with shrimp and lobster:drool5:

[The Comedian]

Lobster bisque really has no equal.

True, this. I'll add Potato-Garlic as a favorite as well.

[papayahed]

I was going to ask the same thing...

This is a variation of my recipe:

[janesmith]

Tomato and basil

[TheFifthElement]

Soup is scary. Idk, it's just something about drinking liquid out of a bowl that freaks me out :sick:

So, do you drink coffee or tea? Isn't that just 'drinking liquid out of a bowl'?

みそ (miso) is my most consumed soup, but other than that I like carrot and coriander, broccoli and stilton, cream of tomato, and any really hearty soup with big chunks of vegetables and thick, stewy broth. Yum. I also sometimes make a soup called 'Tom's chicken soup', which is a cream based soup with potatoes, onions, chicken and bacon. More yum :)

[1n50mn14]

Cream of mushroom and potato and leek!

Also, I make a homemade soup, in which I use veggie broth, loads of garlic, finely chopped green onion, bok choy, various veggies to your liking, various spices to your liking, cream and/or water, tofu (or meat, if you are a meat eater like I am, again, haha). Yum!

[Niamh]

I had spicy mexican chicken soup today...it exploded in the microwave! :p

[OrphanPip]

I had spicy mexican chicken soup today...it exploded in the microwave! :p

Haha, did the mention of mole make you go out and buy that?

[Niamh]

haha no. I've only seen what that is now. never heard of it. I'd actually read it as mole and went " I hope she's not on about actualy moles!" :sick: :p I had it in my fridge to take for lunch and all this talk of soup reminded me so i brought it to work this morning... unfortunately it exploded in the microwave and then attacked me when i tried to take it out. Ended up trying to clean both the microwave and stop bloodflow from my figer at the same time. needless to say it took a lot longer than expected. :blush:

[OrphanPip]

Haha ouch, my mother always used to be afraid of heating liquids in microwaves because of how they can explode when heated above boiling point.

[sprinks]

Well, I like pumpkin soup, and pretty much any type of chicken soup! I like potato and leek sometimes too. I think we have stews a lot more than soups.

[Shalot]

What on earth is taco soup, Shalot?

well, it has ground beef, corn kidney beans, chiles, diced tomatoes and taco seasoning. Make it in the crockpot and serve with tortilla chips crunched up in it. It's really good. When you're tired of chili, just have taco soup!

Now mole soup. Not good.

And no soup thread would be complete without a soup joke:

Q. what'd you have for breakfast?
A. Pea Green Soup

Q: What'd you have for lunch?
A. Pea Green Soup

Q. What'd you do all night?
A. Pea Green Soup...

[kasie]

Beetroot.

Leek and pea. (I see a possible variation on Shalot's soup joke here....)

Thai Chicken soup - made with coconut cream - mmmmmm.

Health-in-a-bowl - an Anthony Worrell Thompson recipe, full of root vegs, pearl barley, greens, chicken or ham if you want it -filling and sustaining.

[Niamh]

thai chicken noodle soup is gorgeous!

[papayahed]

:confused: What? It's just like taco soup. except the corn and taco seasoning. Kinda...

:skep::smilielol5:

[Shalot]

I appreciate your acknowledgement of that joke there. :smile5:

[Helga]

I love potatoes any kind and in any way possible, so potato and curry soup is my favourite... I get hungry thinking about it....

[Shalot]

:confused: What? It's just like taco soup. except the corn and taco seasoning. Kinda...



well see, it's like this. I am embarrassed to put this up here on the internet but I had never heard of mole soup. So I was thinking rodents and I was thinking you were completely out of your mind. :blush::blush2:

That's my fault, I'm not sure how to get the "e" with an accent make above it.

:D Papaya, does your mole soup have chocolate in it as would be found in a traditional mole?

[prendrelemick]

Potato and stilton is luvverly.

Why is tinned tomato soup nice, but packet tomato soup horrible, when tinned chicken soup is horrible, and packet chicken soup is good?

[Shalot]

:D Papaya, does your mole soup have chocolate in it as would be found in a traditional mole?

I don't have any idea what you're talking about either... poor confused me. :confused5:

In Mexico, the undisputed national sauce is mole, an intoxicating blend of chocolate, chiles, garlic, onions and nuts and so much more.

[Scheherazade]

I want to learn how to make tomato soup... Love it with croutons and Parmesan cheese.

[applepie]

Does anyone have any good recipes for chilled soup? I've made gazpacho before, but I'm not the biggest fan of tomatoes. I'm trying to think of some others that I could make to have for summer lunches and such :D

[Paulclem]

We are unused to the processed tomato in packets, but we are very used to processed chicken - crisps, boil-in the bag, curried, vesta meals, Goblin chicken stew, chicken pies, dried, dessicated...

[TurquoiseSunset]

My favourites are Chicken Noodle, Tom Yum, Broccoli and Butternut.

[Scheherazade]

The OP:
What's your favorite?Just realised that I haven't made soup for ages.

Should remedy this asap.

Google "iced cucumber soup". Bit of an acquired taste, to be honest, I didn't like but the visitors did. Served with mint. :eek6:

I've been eating soup broth almost daily, I think I'm going to need a long break from soup after this.

[papayahed]

I've been eating soup broth almost daily, I think I'm going to need a long break from soup after this.

How much longer?

[OrphanPip]

How much longer?

I'm at the halfway mark, I'm getting my second post-op x-ray next week to see if the bone is healed properly. If it is, I get the wire off, finally.

Alll Riigghhtt, I'm sending good thoughts to your bones.

[Scheherazade]

Have you planned your first meal yet after "all-clear"?

[OrphanPip]

:)

Have you planned your first meal yet after "all-clear"?

Something greasy, cheap, and unbelievably unhealthy.

[papayahed]

Something greasy, cheap, and unbelievably unhealthy.

That sounds so freakin' good!

[Scheherazade]

Something greasy, cheap, and unbelievably unhealthy.Don't forget to take some photos and post them! :D


I think I will make sweetcorn chicken soup today.

[qimissung]

Yeah, OP, that does sound delicious, and I haven't even had my jaw wire shut for six weeks.

On the other hand, Sher, yours also sounds tasty. I think I'm feeling a little peckish about now, and unfortunately there's just not much in my cupboard.

On the downside, I would hate hating a chicken broth based soup . I adore Ramen; is there a cheaper, tastier way to pass a cold, broke winter's eve?

[Scheherazade]

On the other hand, Sher, yours also sounds tasty. It turned out all right though it was not as thich as it was supposed to be (should have added more corn floured).

Next time, I will make some lentil soup.

Which reminds me... What happened to our LSL thread?
