Title: Love Soup
First published: 2009
Description: Anna Thomas's Vegetarian Epicure cookbooks have sold millions of copies and inspired generations. Now she describes her love affair with the ultimate comfort food. &quot;From my kitchen to yours,&quot; Thomas says, &quot;here are the best soups I've ever made.&quot; Her wonderfully creative recipes make use of fresh, seasonal produce - try black bean and squash soup in the fall, smoky eggplant soup in midsummer, or seductively perfumed mushroom soup for the holidays. Silky puree or rib-sticking chowder - each recipe has room for variation, and nearly all are vegan-friendly.

<i>Love Soup</i> also provides recipes for breads, hummus, pesto, salads, and homey desserts - and simple menus that put soup at the heart of the meal. Throughout, Thomas offers expert advice on shopping, seasoning, tasting, becoming a cook. With soups that delight and nourish, Thomas invites us all into the kitchen, reminding us of the joy and good sense of home cooking.
