Soups

A soup for all seasons that's full of herb flavour but simple to make - and much tastier than the ones in the shops. Use very good stock for the best flavour.

A favourite Winter soup which is vegetarian. Artichokes will discolour when peeled so place them into a bowl of cold water with a slice of lemon added to prevent them from discolouring.

A simple and economical soup which is quick to make. Use oil instead of butter for a dairy free version.

The perfect way to use up the flesh of pumpkins or squashes. Substitute carrots for other root veg if you fancy. This recipe also makes a good sauce for gnocchi and goes well with a grating of Parmesan cheese.
