Started some mushroom barley soup - it takes several hours to make, but is so delicious that it's worth the wait.

I made another pot of minestrone. I can't get enough!

Finished off the last of the vegetable soup last night.
@Jean-Paul has inspired me to make a pot of miso soup today. All the ingredients are on hand, including bok choy and green onions in the crisper, so why not?

I have never tasted miso. I remember the panel talking about it a lot in the old days of "Iron Chef". Maybe someday soon I'll chase it down and make the soup!

I just made a "what do I have at on hand" soup. It has broth I made the other day. Onion, carrot, garlic, celery mirepoix.
A few mushrooms and a bit of zucchini. Canned cannelini beans half mushed up and some jalapeno cheddar sausages sliced.

I don't know what you mean by the recipe files, but I'm happy to share the recipe.

I make it exactly as she specifies with only a few tweaks:
I use Trader Joe's dried mushroom assortment instead of dried shitake mushrooms because that's what I have on my shelf
Add far more carrots and celery and sometimes cut green beans, but don't add the veggies until the soup is nearly done because I like vegetables al dente
I add about a tablespoon of poultry seasoning
It makes a lot of soup but freezes very well.

I usually make beef and barley, but I would love this mushroom style.

Made Beef and Barley soup. The cut of meat I used was occo bucco.
RadishRose, I tried your suggestion and added a good dash of Worcester sauce…it was delicious!
Also a bouquet garni gave extra flavour!

Thinking about making soup today but am dithering because despite having 2 refrigerators my cold space will be precious this week with party foods and ingredients. Maybe a small pot...

Yes, just a small pot.
I'm thinking of making that Greek chicken-rice with lemon and egg soup. But I have to go shopping first.

We finished a smoked turkey breast. I just made broth from the bones.
I'm adding carrots, onion, garlic, celery, a couple of older mushrooms, spices. Then fresh kale from the garden, white beans, and some of the turkey meat.
I'm hungry.

I wound up defrosting the container of mushroom barley soup that I'd frozen a few weeks ago. It's delish AND I freed up some freezer room, which I'll need this week as I do party prep.Yes, just a small pot.

Win-Win!

Today I made the Greek Avgolemono chicken soup! Delicious.
It's really just chicken & rice soup how you like it, but 1-2 fresh lemons are squeezed and the juice its rapidly whisked with an egg.
Then the mixture is carefully tempered by adding small spoonfuls of hot broth while whisking quickly with your other hand, until a good ladle-ful has been incorporated. Then, slowly pour back into the soup.

Coffee soup sounds wonderful for a winters day!
