About this book

Anna Thomas's Vegetarian Epicure cookbooks have sold millions of copies and inspired generations. Now she describes her love affair with the ultimate comfort food. "From my kitchen to yours," Thomas says, "here are the best soups I've ever made." Her wonderfully creative recipes make use of fresh, seasonal produce - try black bean and squash soup in the fall, smoky eggplant soup in midsummer, or seductively perfumed mushroom soup for the holidays. Silky puree or rib-sticking chowder - each recipe has room for variation, and nearly all are vegan-friendly. <i>Love Soup</i> also provides recipes for breads, hummus, pesto, salads, and homey desserts - and simple menus that put soup at the heart of the meal. Throughout, Thomas offers expert advice on shopping, seasoning, tasting, becoming a cook. With soups that delight and nourish, Thomas invites us all into the kitchen, reminding us of the joy and good sense of home cooking.
