Highlights: Soup

Published on January 8, 2012 By Emily. Updated on January 8, 2012

It’s no secret that soup is one of my favorite foods to cook and to eat.  Soup is one of the few things I look forward to during this time of year (other things: wearing sweaters, drinking more tea and the holiday season).  Soup makes an appearance on our table at least once a week and as a result, there have been more recipes for soup on Relishments than anything else.

Soups, as seen on Relishments

Some interesting soup-related hints came my way this week.  The Kitchn suggests using fried garlic and nuts to top soup, which sounds like it would be worth a try.  I keep meaning to make my own croutons as well, but that hasn’t happened yet.

Well Preserved had a piece about super-reduced stocks, which would certainly help me make more soup.  I never seem to have enough broth or stock on hand.  Still, the procedure seems like more work than I’d be willing to put into it. 

Kelly wrote a review of Julie’s Soba Noodle Soup that I wrote about a few weeks ago (it’s funny how the internet works sometimes).  Anyway, her review is much more complete than mine.  It should be mentioned that Julie’s soup saved the day when we arrived home from Christmas vacation to an empty refrigerator and little motivation to cook.

And as you know, I’m always on the search for more recipes to add to my collection.  Here are the soup ideas that have shown up in my Google Reader lately:

  • Curried Acorn Squash & Roasted Apple Soup (The Healthy Everythingtarian)
  • Beef with Barley Soup (Tasty Kitchen)
  • New England Clam Chowder (Healthy Delicious)
  • Greek Avgolemono/Lemon and Orzo Soup (Home Cooking in Montana)
  • Lasagna Soup (Closet Cooking)
  • Allergen-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup (It All Changes)
  • Hearty Chicken Minestrone (The Kitchn)
  • Tuscan Bean Soup with Shrimp (The Pioneer Woman)
  • Carrot Soup with Miso and Sesame (Smitten Kitchen)
  • Cheddar Ale Soup with Homemade Croutons ( Tracey’s Culinary Adventures via The Kitchn)
  • 3 Easy Bean Soups – 30-Minute Tuscan White Bean Soup, 30-Minute Black Bean Soup and 30-Minute Pasta and Kidney Bean Soup (Pasta e Fagioli) (Serious Eats)

    Yaaay Soup! I for sure need to make more soup in the near future, I always forget how generally easy and delicious they are!

    Mmm, I love soup! I actually just cooked two soups today, hoppin john and vegetarian chili. I froze them to prepare for a busy next couple of weeks. I’ll have to take a look at your soup list for my next round, before the tx weather starts getting warm again (actually it was like 70 degrees here in the other day!).

    I’ve been meaning to make a vegetarian version of Greek Avgolemono soup for a super long time. I’ll have to check out Home Cooking in Montana’s recipe. Thanks for sharing!

It was no surprise that Public was close to full on a Wednesday night - everything was so good.

Published on December 30, 2022 By Emily. Updated on December 30, 2022

It’s hard to believe that 2022 is basically behind us. Though overall this year found me getting back to the person I want to be (post-babies and “post”-pandemic), I did not try nearly as many new recipes this year as I used to. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to see that I’d made note of any new-to-me recipes I wanted to share in this post. This year’s list is short, but delicious. It includes recipes from @budgetbytes, @smittenkitchen and @howsweeteats.

@coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one @coastalmainebotanicalgardens continues to be one of the highlights of all my return trips to Boothbay and their annual Gardens Aglow event continues to impress. It was great to be back to walking the gardens instead of the pandemic drive through and there seemed to be more lights than ever.  I'm already looking forward to next year.

Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but t Fall in the Berkshires is always incredible, but this year we've had weather that has also been outstanding. The past 2 weekends have included time at Jaeschke Orchards, the Greylock Glen, and the Ashuwillticook Rail Trail as well as stopping to photograph any random foliage I see. 
Check out the last slide for video of some feathered friends we saw on a walk.

@freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favo @freshgrassfestival continues to be one of my favorite events each year, and it doesn't hurt that it's just minutes away from home. Enjoying the festival with my kids is definitely a different experience than without, but it's still a good time. The weather was especially cooperative today which was great for all the laps I did around the @massmoca campus pushing a stroller. I'm already looking forward to next year.
