A soup cookbook featuring 100 no-recipe recipes! All you have to do is prepare the ingredients, cook them (or not), garnish and serve. No need to sauté, add ingredients in order, or monitor the cooking. Each photograph details the ingredients in detail, everything is explained: quantities and preparation. Pictograms indicate the cooking information (cook in a saucepan, blend, chill in the fridge and strain) and then you're good to go! The one-pot recipes are so simple that you'll immediately understand visually how to create the soups, and garnish them, for that ultimate bowl of comfort. Includes basic broths, and then nourishing recipes - hot and cold, savoury and sweet - to inspire you throughout the year. From a classic beef pho, a wholesome dhal and a warming mushroom velouté to a spring green gazpacho, a summery peach and rosé soup and a rich chocolate and vanilla cream, there is a seasonal soup for every occasion.
