Recipe Notes

Try this with:

  • Apples
  • Apricot and courgette
  • Broad bean and hazelnut
  • Carrot and coriander
  • Cauliflower and fennel
  • Celery and dill
  • Leek and potato
  • Mushrooms and cumin
  • Pea, pear and watercress
  • Sage and onion
  • Smoked haddock and sweetcorn
  • Tomato and tarragon

Chilled soups can be made in the same way but use 900 mls of stock to intensify the flavour. The world is your oyster.
