Roasted Tomato & Vegetable Soup
One of my favorite Dutch food shows is called: ‘Over de kook“. It’s a show, or better yet, a contest between five amateur chefs battling it out in a restaurant kitchen using their favorite recipes. It’s a good watch. One of the recipes they aired really caught my eye: a basic roasted tomato soup, full of lovely vegetables, garnished with herbed goat cheese. What was so special about it? They…
Austrian Goulash Soup
I found this recipe in one of my grandma’s cook books. You see, our Dutch food is the pretty straight-forward, no-nonsense and nourishing type of food. No light summer dishes or use of exotic spices. I love our Dutch food, but there’s a time and place for everything, so when autumn sets in that’s when I install myself on the couch with a huge pile of Dutch cook books and…
Caldo Tlalpeño
This bowl is filled to the rim with pure savory and spicy love. I was blown away by how all these (to me) unexpected flavors came together in the end. When I placed my order at the Mexican web store, I also threw a pack of tlalpeño bouillon cubes and a can of chipotle chiles in adobo into my virtual basket, having no clue what to do with either one…
Summer Minestrone
A flavor bomb, and a healthy one to boot. That’s what this soup chockfull of fresh local produce is. There’s no other way to put it. Tons of vegetables went into this baby and the result is an amazing soup, both in flavor and color. It was summery while still being hearty and wholesome enough to hold me over ’til dinner. Ate it with a nice scoop of basil &…
Creamy Asparagus Soup
My favorite soup. Well, one of my favorites. I know, I have a lot of favorite dishes but what can I say? I like to eat. Ultra simple and fast recipe with maximum flavor. No cooking skills required, you throw it together in a couple of minutes. Serve with lots of crusty bread and I know you’ll love every single bite. Even though it’s a very rich soup you still…
Potato, Corn & Chicken Soup
Just as things started to warm up around here, another round of cold winter weather set in putting us back at square one. Not a place I really enjoy dealing with again. Time for soup. Soul-warming soup. One of my favorite soups in the world is potato soup (with onion and garlic. Surprise!). But to be honest, anything containing even the slightest hint of potato is favorite in my book. This…
