Title: Soup Makes the Meal: 150 Soul-Satisfying Recipes for Soups, Salads, and Breads by Ken Haedrich ISBN: 1-55832-187-X Publisher: Harvard Common Press Pub. Date: 01 October, 2001 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $15.95 |

Summary: Awesome recipes
Comment: I cook often, but I own very few cookbooks. I get tired of buying cookbooks and finding only a few recipes worth making. This book is definitely an exception. Every recipe I've tried has been terrific, and there are so many others I'd like to try, I've decided to give the library back their copy and purchase my own. The biggest plus for me is that the recipes are all very healthy and the menus are well-balanced. Yes, he uses butter and cream in some recipes, but he balances them with amazing whole grain breads and large amounts of vegetables and fruits in the soups as well as the salads. What impresses me the most is that his whole grain breads taste so terrific - you'll wonder why you ever ate white bread! Best of all, the recipes make enough for leftovers, but not so much that you're eating soup all week. Best Bets: the Split Pea soup menu is my favorite - the bread is terrific and the split pea soup is the best I've ever tasted.

Summary: All around excellent.
Comment: I love to cook, and I have a pretty extensive collection of cookbooks. This one ranks number one for soups and the breads and salads that best complement them. The tips that Haedrich inserts among the recipes are practical and interesting. It's fun to pick up tricks of the trade as you go along. And everyone who buys this book must try the Cream of Jalapeno soup--it is very unusual, and extremely tasty. I can't wait to try some more of Haedrich's books. He really communicates his love for food and its preparation, and makes the time spent cooking fun and rewarding.

Summary: Couldn't resist this book!
Comment: I passed this book on a library cart, stopped and picked it up, was intrigued, checked it out, brought it home and read it, and finally decided I have to have my own copy. What a great cookbook, with lots of breads, soups, and salads that I can't wait to try. The breads are mostly innovative quick breads, and thank goodness for so many new picnic and potluck salads besides the tired old mayo-doused macaroni ones. I like the little intro at the beginning of each recipe, it's informative and entertaining and gives you a preview of how your final result will turn out. Most of the soup recipes can easily be modified to be low in fat (for example add evaporated milk instead of cream). My kids are adventurous eaters so I plan to try many many of these recipes, but there are few exotic ingredients or oddball flavor combinations, so I definitely think of this as a "family friendly" cookbook.
