Soups and One-Pot Meals: The 100 Best Recipes from All over the World

Dark winter days and long frosty nights send a special message to the palate, a craving for something hot, hearty, and redolent of childhood comforts. Soup is perhaps the most primal of foods -- even more so as, in the twilight of the century, we look wistfully over our shoulders at a simpler, more communal time. And soups and stews, their popularity soaring, are tailor-made for harried cooks of the nineties: one classic pot can streamline a wealth of exotic ingredients, a few succulent staples, or leftovers we can't bear to waste. All are displayed in the luscious color photography of Soups and One-Pot Meals.From the master creator of the award-winning cookbook series that starred The Chocolate Bible and The Pasta Bible comes an array of soups and one-pot meals from thirty-one countries -- Norway to Laos, Croatia to the Caribbean. Thick and creamy or tangy and translucent, its 100 recipes run the gamut from Pepper Soup and Lemon Soup to Irish Stew, from Miso Soup to Cold Elderberry Soup. Soup and One-Pot Meals is a supremely satisfying mouthful and eyeful of a book, an enduring gift for cooks of all persuasions.Teubner, Christian is the author of 'Soups and One-Pot Meals: The 100 Best Recipes from All over the World' with ISBN 9780670889228 and ISBN 0670889229.
