Extract

It all began with a few bones and vegetables thrown into a primitive pot with some water and wild herbs. Soup evolved as a staple all over the world and local specialities developed as cooks used the ingredients that were available to them. While it is now truly international fare, soup remains true to its original form – simple to make and full of flavour.

The wonderful thing about soup is not just the wide range of flavours and textures that can be achieved. It is enormously versatile and can be a light lunch, a palate–pleasing starter, or a one–pot meal. And with shortcuts such as a good–quality bought stock, soup is a great fast food for busy people.
