Saturday night is Soup Night for me and my partner. I use your division of brothy/pureed, but for the latter, my inspiration is the rainbow: green (asparagus, broccoli, greens), orange (sweet potatoes, squash), red (tomato, peppers), white (cauliflower, fennel), etc. To provide a bit of heft and creaminess, I recommend adding in some white beans before pureeing -- maybe half a cup or so.
love having a set soup night!! when you do pureed soups and use this color inspiration, you combine the vegetables? like a tomato + pepper soup? love this way of thinking about it....and yes to some white beans!
Colour combining is great fun -- I just go with what appeals to my taste buds. Forgot to second your advice to roast the veggies. Not necessary, but if you have the time it adds a depth of flavour.
Thanks for all of the soup inspiration! Many years ago, I had a soup group - 4 of us would each make a big pot of soup and share (everyone got 1 quart of each soup). It was awesome, we had themes each month, so each soup had some similarity but wasn’t the same recipe. So fun. I need to get another soup group going soon! Anyone else in Baltimore?
Julia, you’ve never thought about a soup group before now? I’m shocked...and wishing I was closer, to taste all of the soups you’d make for your group!
