Wilder by the Dozen: A Season of Soups - E-book - ePub

Soup whether hot or cold, makes a complete and nutritious meal with a flatbread/roll and salad or some fruit. Lightweight non-breakable containers that keep foods hot or cold - as well as the traditional vacuum bottle- make it possible for soup to be the nourishing main course for a lunch away from home. As my recipes prove, soups need not be simmered for hours. They can be prepared in 8 to 25 minutes using a food processer, blender or blender stick.
Each formula again embodies a culinary principle or two with multiple variations and applications. For example, The Fast Black Bean Chilli can be a vegetarian or robust knife and fork soup with added meats. By reducing the liquids it can be a filling for burritos or a base for tostadas. The Gazpacho soup can be a cocktail with vodka or a Gazpacho salad with no tomato juice. Once again the format includes an array of garnishes and condiments to choose from and a note on each recipe technology with even more tips and suggestions.
So really it's several recipes in one encouraging you to experiment with new ingredients and techniques after learning the basics and principles.
