Synopsis
The New Covent Garden Food Company was founded in 1988 to make homemade quality soup using entirely natural ingredients, and despite many imitators over the past eighteen years New Covent Garden are still the bestsellers in the fresh soup market. This enduring popularity is a result of New Covent Garden's continuous passion for fresh soup, which they expound as the ultimate, easy-to-make, healthy, delicious meal. Featuring over 100 of the New Covent Garden Soup Company's most popular soup recipes, this kitchen classic is as appealing today as it was when it was first published ten years ago. Repackaged in keeping with New Covent Garden's latest branding, the original "Book of Soups" is being relaunched to coincide with the publication of the new title, "Soup in Season".

Customer Reviews

There are no better books for soup lovers
I've had this book (the older edition) for almost 10 years now and I'm still using it. The recipes always work perfectly, the short little stories over each recipe are fun to read and I've never made any soup from this or the other two books without people asking for second, third and in one case even fourth helpings (and most of the time the soup was supposed to be the starter!). Normally, I make at least double the quantities because of that. Can you say more to show just how yummy the recipes are? This definitely is a book I couln't live without. Everybody should have it!

Best ever soup cookbook!! Buy now!!!
I absolutly love this soup cookbook. Every soup I have made (about half of all in book) turn out fab and there are several that I have made over and over. Definatly one I would recomend to everyone.

I have now also purchased the soup & beyond cookbook and made my first soup from that the other day...Parsnip, leek & Lemon. It was superb.

One of the best cookbooks I have ever owned.

The best book of soups in 10 years
I've owned this book for about 10 years and it is still the only book I use for making soup. My favourite is the Tuscan Bean soup, but I've made most of them over the years.

The only thing that stops me giving it a 5/5 is the print which still annoys me and has done since I bought it. The black on green is difficult to read, and sometimes the lettering all blends into one. If they made a reprint with standard type I would be the first to buy it!
