Vegetable Soup Vegetable Soup
I love soups. When making anything, I try to use as much fresh as possible. Especially Vegetables. Vegetable soup is one of my favorites. I would love to be able to always have it made so I could grab a soup mug or bowl full whenever I like. I always make 5-7 quarts of soup. I keep some out, place some in sandwich Ziplock baggies. This baggy makes one full bowl of soup. Candis Brooks -

Tuscan Chicken Soup Tuscan Chicken Soup
I'm a great fan of chicken soup as a natural cure for all ills, and I liked the idea of giving it an Italian twist. The original recipe uses cooked shredded chicken, but I didn't have any so I decided to buy a whole chicken, use some meat from that, use the carcass to make my own stock, and freeze whatever I didn't use for the soup. I asked the butcher to debone the chicken for me. Also, I used the last bit of my garden basil but you can use dried (as the original recipe does). Becky -
Make Delicious Savory Egg Custard (Chawanmushi) Using Instant Soup Mix Make Delicious Savory Egg Custard (Chawanmushi) Using Instant Soup Mix
This is very simple to make since I used instant clear soup (osuimono) packets as the soup stock. I love chawanmushi, and I wanted to be able to make it at any time. I came up with this recipe through trial and error. You can make this very easily in a frying pan too. Steaming the custard is the most difficult part, but as long as there's steam, you can cook them fine over low heat.Gingko nuts make a loud noise when they're heated so beware! Soup mixes differ from brand to brand so make sure you adjust the amount of salt added accordingly. If your pot or pan cover is dome-shaped, water will not drip so you don't need a towel. Take a peek at the custard frequently to make sure it doesn't get too full of bubbles, which ruin the texture. When the custards puff up a little bit they are done.

Vegetable-Packed Soup With Soy Milk Vegetable-Packed Soup With Soy Milk
Since I was chosen to try out Ajinomoto's new consommé products I decided to make a slightly sweet soup with soy milk.The ground toasted sesame seeds make this recipe stand out. If they're used in conjunction with the soy milk, they produce a nice, full flavor.Since this soup is prepared the night before, the root vegetables will become soft and tender and the consommé will give the soup a rich taste.Spinach tends to change color once cooked so this should be prepared in the morning.

Radish Leaf Soup Radish Leaf Soup
I grew some radishes in the garden and the leaves were just too good to simply throw away so I made this soup with them. In Portugal this soup is normally made with turnip leaves and seeing as radishes are from the same family the taste will be almost identical. Rae
