I like to entertain illusions that I am an adept in the kitchen. More often than not, they end up being delusions.
A case in point: I think I can create a unique soup by tossing a bit of this and that into the pot. It works in that it is a truly unique soup – it was never made before and will never be made again.
This time when the weather turned cold, I had a brilliant revelation – let me carry out investigations of the virtual kind. I surfed the web with the confidence of a virtual surfer and came up with a truly wonderful catch: www.simplysoups.com.
I’ve tried two soups so far – Split-Pea Soup and Avgolemono. I haven’t got pictures because they taste better than they look. But 2 for 2 so far – I’m impressed.
When the weather takes a cold spell again, as it is sure to, I shall go and unearth a few more soup treasures.
So here’s a tip from one who now knows: Don’t just cast anything into the pot – try a true and trusted recipe. J
