Soup's on! That should make everyone happy, because it's the ultimate comfort food, often healthfully light in calories and fat, and tastes delicious. And with 250 no-fuss recipes to choose from--all perfect for today's busy cook--there's something to tempt every palate. Some of the soups take just an hour or so to prepare; others are even ready in mere minutes. Create bisques, broths, and chowders, and prepare fruit soups (including a Classic Strawberry for summer); hot and chilled vegetarian varieties; and ones chock-full of beans, meat, poultry, or seafood. There's information on what to keep in your soup pantry and how to make basic stocks; definitions of “soup lingo”; and ideas for streamlining cooking.

More About the Author

My cooking/baking carrier was handed down from my mother and father. I baked my first cookies in 1943, in grade school in Buffalo. New York. Although I have had thirty seven major occupations, and five companies of my own, I have always returned to cooking as my love and profession. I start to write and prepare the cookbooks when I became disallusion by the cost per recipe of the cookbooks then on sale. Why should I, why should anyone pay two and three dollars for a recipe because it is printed in a book with fancy pictures. I made it my goal with my first cookbook, to prepare a cookbook whereby the buyer would be paying only pennies for what they had in the past paid dollars for. This has been my one goal since the first page crossed my computer screen.
