Bauld Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I go for Sunday dinner at my moms so she's able to spend some time with her grandson. She makes the most wonderful red pepper and tomato soup. Just a subtle hint of chilli as well to give it a slightest bit of heat. She's also a brilliant bread maker so you get a lovely wedge of homemade loaf smothered in butter. Terrific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mollo Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 My missus makes Corn, Tomato, Potato and Jalapeno Chowder. It's healthy and spicy and hits the spot every time. Utterly brilliant. It's basically tinned corn, tinned toms, spuds, chopped jalapenos, an orange pepper. Great tip - We freeze the leftovers and next time round we microwave some of those rice bags, pour the soup over the top and make a thick rice broth with it. It's cheap and fast to do,brilliant if you're getting in late and the wee one's are a handful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjambo Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I remember when I was young that in winter we always had a pot of soup on the stove waiting to be heated up when required. It would occasionally be added to (leftovers etc.) but every 3-4 days whatever remained, if anything, would be chucked out and a new pot started.

@VladMagic Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Made the simplest yet most delicious bowl of soup this week. A packet of Knor Chicken Noodle soup brought to the simmer. I had half a packet of Chicken Fajita seasoning left over from earlier in the week so bunged a good bit of it in with the soup. Simmered for 2 mins and ate the lot. Instant chicken fajita and noodle soup! Tasted amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasted amazing does that mean when I put fresh black pepper on my soup it becomes a new super soup "chicken noodle with savoury black pepper" kinda thing..........never knew I could make soup until now.

Kenbo Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I throw 2 cans chopped tomatoes, 1 diced neep, 4 chopped carrots, 1 large chopped leek, 4 medium potatoes, 1 cup of barley, 1 red lentils, 1 yellow lentils, 2 cubes chicken stock, plenty back pepper, top up with water and leave in slow cooked for hours. Then hand blend it down. Thick, lovely tasty and filling (a bit like me i tell the Mrs! hahaha)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Striker Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 4 hours ago, redjambo said: Baxters Cullen Skink. A bit expensive, but delicious. Hmmm.... as tinned Cullen Skink soup goes, Baxters is probably the best one - but not nearly as good as you can do yourself at home using fresh leeks, potato, onion and smoked haddock. You just have to take care heating the cream & milk - do it slowly so it doesn't curdle. Add a touch of parmesan and seasoning. Job done. A good home-made soup of any kind is one of life's simple pleasures, especially in the Covid winter. Some good creations mentioned in the posts above. One of my favourite shop-bought soups is Cully & Sully Mushroom soup - lovely texture & taste , made even better by adding a generous amount of dried tarragon. Stunning.

Dawnrazor Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I often take homemade soup to work in a food flask, can't beat it on a cold day. For a while I was taking two food flasks, a fry up in one and soup in the other, the fry up had to go as the weight was piling on😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Panzee Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 for all those who bought the soup kettles - would you still recommend? any brands better than others? do they make the soup as good as using a big pot on the hob?
