Top Five Wednesday: Five Soups You Should Make
After the last Food Blogger Happy Hour/Potluck, we have been infatuated with soup. All kinds. Thrifty DC Cook is responsible for this. She made probably one of the top five best soups we’ve ever tasted (*It was a seafood soup in a spicy, lemongrass broth). The recipe for that is coming soon and we will fill you in when we get the details. If you haven’t figured it out by now, we are cold and trying to stay warm under these conditions hence we’re making soup. Today’s “Top Five” are the top five soups you should be making this January. Soup is sooo easy to make and sooo delicious. Typically, soups are not that fatty either because the base of the soup is usually a light broth or another light ingredient. Now, there are those soups that bring out the naughty side of eating but we hope these soups will help you stay warm and stay within your new years resolution. Check it:
1. Tomato soup– The Arugula Files recipe is simple and matches perfect with a grilled cheese…gotta love the classics.
2. Crab and Corn Chowder– This is our show stopper recipe. Serve this one when you’re have a few guests over and you want something comforting.
3. Middle Eastern Lamb Stew– Super easy because the slow cooker does all the work. Just drop in the ingredients and 3 hours later you have a feast.
4. Maryland Crab– This is an art. Well in these parts anyway. Around this area, Maryland crab is the staple soup and must be done right. This is a great time to practice.
5. Miso Soup– Love this one pot soup. Our favorite additions to the typical seaweed and tofu are carrots, broccoli and mushrooms. Delish.
