Hatch Posted 5 February, 2011 Posted 5 February, 2011 Which flavour is best? I do like tomato. Plain and boring, but I like.
SuperMikey Posted 5 February, 2011 Posted 5 February, 2011 The Co-Operative 'Healthier Choice' tomato and three bean soup, made with lentils, flagolet beans, borlotti beans, blackeye beans, celery, green and red peppers and carrots. 58p from your local Co-op and it's delicious. 120 calories as well.
Deppo Posted 5 February, 2011 Posted 5 February, 2011 Broccoli and Stilton.....mmmmmmmmmmmmm Jesus......5 years away (or something) and the thread that makes you post again is about soup. Anyway, I'd like to smash your brocoli with my stilton.
Hamilton Saint Posted 6 February, 2011 Posted 6 February, 2011 Broccoli and Stilton.....mmmmmmmmmmmmm Yes, that's an excellent soup. Two other excellent soups that I make occasionally: Cullen Skink (it's a potato soup featuring smoked haddock), and vegetable Gumbo soup (key ingredients are okra, green pepper, celery, potato, carrots and corn - lots of spice and hot sauce helps, too!).
SuperMikey Posted 6 February, 2011 Posted 6 February, 2011 Cullen Skink - that's a good Scottish soup right there! Nice and warming on a winter's day.
bridge too far Posted 6 February, 2011 Posted 6 February, 2011 Cullen Skink - that's a good Scottish soup right there! Nice and warming on a winter's day. And Cock-a-leekie! Waitrose does a great Goulash soup. I like Leek and Potato, Tomato with mascarpone, and Wild Mushroom. Damn - it's too early for lunch (
latter day saint Posted 6 February, 2011 Posted 6 February, 2011 Chicken & sweetcorn or Oxtail with a nice buttered roll.
ericofarabia Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Either my home made Leek and Potato (Vichyssoise sp) served either hot or cold, or Carrot and Butternut (or Pumpkin soup) ..... luverly jubbly me ol mateys. Tinned or packet soup just doesn't do it for me. The best I guess would be Campbells Condensed Cream of Tomato with some fresh rosemary, loads of freshly ground pepper and grated parmesan added at the end.
dubai_phil Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 I like Heinz Tomato Soup out of all the canned versions from time to time. I really enjoy Goulash Soup when in Germany or especially the old days when skiing in Austria Borscht in either it's Russian or Polish Versions And home made Stilton & Broccoli But a REALLY good French Onion Soup? I love it, but friends aren't so keen about 3 or 4 hours later
Dibden Purlieu Saint Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Leek and Potato for me. Good with bits of cheddar broken up and dropped in.
Dog Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Great thread Hatch btw. I had sheeps head soup once in Istanbul, it was a whole head with teeth and eyes in a deep bowl of greasy soup, it tasted vile, all the locals were going mad for it as apparently it tasted amazing. I was drunk, I thought it was chicken, that was until someone lifted Larry's head out. Dirty 8astards!!
buctootim Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Leek and Potato for me. Good with bits of cheddar broken up and dropped in. Also known as Leek, Potato and Cheese soup.
scotty Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Also known as Leek, Potato and Cheese soup. and for my fourpence worth, mushroom with a drizzle of truffle oil/butter. And any soup with meat in it should be out of bounds to the British public imho. I'm as far as you can get from vegetarian, but soup with meat is just plain wrong.
SuperMikey Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Truffle oil?! F*cking hell. The ponciest I get with a bit of soup is adding some grated cheese and maybe half a boiled egg!
scotty Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Truffle oil?! F*cking hell. The ponciest I get with a bit of soup is adding some grated cheese and maybe half a boiled egg! dont knock it til you try it mate. Sainsburys do a little bottle for a few quid, you just need a few drops after you serve it (not in the pan while its heating)
Jez Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Spicy Parsnip Soup does it for me. And why would anyone put half a boiled egg into soup? Hard boiled I presume you mean?
wokingsaints Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 carrot and corriander soup is good home made leek and potato is better but truffle oil is the work of the devil
SuperMikey Posted 7 February, 2011 Posted 7 February, 2011 Spicy Parsnip Soup does it for me. And why would anyone put half a boiled egg into soup? Hard boiled I presume you mean? Hard boiled, boiled, it's all the same thing
Deppo Posted 8 February, 2011 Posted 8 February, 2011 I've had that. It's got a meaty, salty taste. Very nice actually.
latter day saint Posted 8 February, 2011 Posted 8 February, 2011 Here's one for Deppo..... they sell that in Tesco if your interested.
ericofarabia Posted 9 February, 2011 Posted 9 February, 2011 I've had that. It's got a meaty, salty taste. Very nice actually. No doubt The Cream of Sum Yung Guy is also one of your favourites !!
Dog Posted 9 February, 2011 Posted 9 February, 2011 Does the soup make your spuff taste different Eric ? Saying if I got stuck into a Campbells Lobster Bisque would my man paste taste of the ginger crab?
