Few foods are more satisfying than soup. A hot bowlful can warm us in the winter, while a chilled one offers refreshment on a summer afternoon. Indeed, a pot of homemade soup in your kitchen is a comforting sight any time of the year. Serve it as a main course accompanied with only a few other simple dishes, and you have a meal guaranteed to please family and friends. Soup for Supper features 45 outstanding recipes for main-course soups and accompanying salads, breads, sandwiches, and desserts. Developed by award-winning chef and author Joyce Goldstein, the recipes are accompanied by helpful tips and hints, a nutritional analysis, and beautiful full-page, full-color photographs. A comprehensive introduction devotes itself to the basics of serving soups as a main course, basic recipes and complete step-by-step instructions for making stock, and a guide to embellishing soups with croutons, salsas, and other additions. Menuplanning suggestions include 10 meals composed from the recipes in the book, and a glossary provides extensive information on key soup-making ingredients and equipment.
