Personally, I love soup and grew up eating soup (homemade and canned). In fact, at least one meal daily, I eat soup! And if at all possible, I always prefer a great tasting HOMEMADE SOUP! Sound familiar?This cookbook I happened upon while doing a search called Homemade Soups in Kindle. Bought it without hesitation!Before I give to you what I found to be the Pros in this cookbook, I will say that I am very, very, picky about soups, especially recipes for homemade soups! OK, here are my favorite things about this book and the PROS:+ Part One - Cream Soups - A 5 step by step easy lesson is given on how to prepare any type of cream soup from the cooking of the starch (flour or cornstarch etc), cooking the soup base, adding vegetables, puree the soup and finishing the soup.+ Superb Basic Recipe for Cream Soup - Love this one as I can change out the vegetables to my liking and for variety. But this is like a template recipe!+ Cheesy Potato Soup - My favorite of all of the recipes. Not only is this tasty, it a soup that I can double the recipe and have for lunch the next day.+ Cream of Potato Soup - This is the ideal way to get those homemade mashed potatoes taste into a creamy and easy to eat soup! His recipe is quick and easy! (I did cook the potatoes for 22 minutes as I like them softer).+ Every type of soup, whether creamed or regular is wonderful. The Southwest Corn Soup, Classic Calico Soup (a very healthy and easy to make vegetable soup) and so many more give me the soup recipes I was looking for!Highly recommend this cookbook!
