5 out of 5 stars Best ever soup cookbook!! Buy now!!!   October 28, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I absolutly love this soup cookbook. Every soup I have made (about half of all in book) turn out fab and there are several that I have made over and over. Definatly one I would recomend to everyone.

I have now also purchased the soup & beyond cookbook and made my first soup from that the other day...Parsnip, leek & Lemon. It was superb.

One of the best cookbooks I have ever owned.



4 out of 5 stars The best book of soups in 10 years   June 10, 2007
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

I've owned this book for about 10 years and it is still the only book I use for making soup. My favourite is the Tuscan Bean soup, but I've made most of them over the years.

The only thing that stops me giving it a 5/5 is the print which still annoys me and has done since I bought it. The black on green is difficult to read, and sometimes the lettering all blends into one. If they made a reprint with standard type I would be the first to buy it!



5 out of 5 stars super soup book   January 11, 2007

I can only say that any foodie will be delighted and inspired by the soups in the book. You can take the theme and develop it and produce tailor made specials to suit you and your family. My favorite is the spicy peanut soup, it is a real winner. My best tip is to make a large pot of stock and freeze in meal size bags. then when you want to make a soup it only takes a short while with not too much preparation. My children love the soups and keep trying to persuade us to try new ones.
A real winner!



5 out of 5 stars New Covent Garden Soup Book   January 8, 2006

I have owned this book for... ooooh... well it seems like forever but I'm guessing since 1996! This is esily the most used recipe book on my shelf, and I have a few. Never have I offered a soup from this book without a chorus of praise, I've altered some of the recipes, I object to buying a chicken just to make stock for a soup for example, so I've used Chicken Oxo. Where I've made a predominantly vegetable soup which has asked for Chicken Stock I've used Green Oxo. So appreciative have my friends been of the soups from this book that I must have bought 6 or 7 copies of it just as presents. Buy it, use it, love it... but be adventurous and change the odd thing here and there and see what you think of the alterations, the book even has a grid at the back for you to record the changes you have made and your verdict on the outcome.


5 out of 5 stars The best soup cookbook ever   December 4, 2005

I have owned this book for over a year now and it is the most used cookbook on my shelf. Every time I cook a soup from it, I get compliments and empty bowls. Most of the recipes are quick and simple to make and if you don't have the exact ingredients, still tend to work well. As a final bonus, my children's vegetable intake has doubled since starting to cook these soups. A must buy!
