Good Soup: 52 Colorful Recipes for Year-Round Comfort

Michelin-starred chef Bijdendijk and sausage maker Levie love soup so much they launched their own canned soup business SNERT, named after the traditional Dutch split-pea soup. Focusing solely on soup, each recipe in this colorful cookbook is a meal of its own, meant to feed four to six people. The introduction describes categories of soups, plus shares notes on flavorings. There is a separate section on making soup stock to use as a base in many of the recipes. The soups themselves are organized by color, and the 52 recipes ensure a tasty soup option for every week of the year. The recipes come from a range of cultures around the world, including an Indian daal, a North Sea fish soup, an ajo blanco from the Mediterranean, and even a traditional borscht. The index by soup type will help readers find something that fits their tastes, and the variety of recipes gives options for different dietary needs.
