Lemon, Dill and White Bean Chicken Soup

January 19, 2020 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

I always think of January as soup month. Apparently, it is actual National Soup Month. Soup is so warm and comforting, and it is really simple to whip up a delicious pot of flavor. Sometimes I go for a hearty, thick and creamy soup, but a lighter version always fits in with those forts of the year pledges to get healthy. This soup is a nice bright bowl of sunshine in the dreary … [Read more...] about Lemon, Dill and White Bean Chicken Soup

Salmorejo (Chilled Spanish Tomato Soup) with Frozen Olive Oil

August 4, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

Salmorejo is gazpacho’s simpler cousin.  It’s a fresh, chilled tomato soup without the added peppers, cucumbers and other business found in gazpacho.  I’m not a huge fan of gazpacho, because it varies so wildly and people seem to put all kinds of crazy ingredients in it.  You never know what you are going to get. But Salmorejo is right up my alley.  I first … [Read more...] about Salmorejo (Chilled Spanish Tomato Soup) with Frozen Olive Oil

Cauliflower, Hazelnut and Brown Butter Soup

January 6, 2019 by The Runaway Spoon 3 Comments

I like cauliflower, but I am not obsessed with putting it to all sorts of uses. I don’t pizza crust it or rice it or make bread with it.

Cauliflower is lovely all on its own. My favortie form of cauliflower is soup, … [Read more...] about Cauliflower, Hazelnut and Brown Butter Soup

Lady Pea Buttermilk Vichyssoise with Crispy Country Ham

June 24, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

  When I was a kid, my mom would sometimes in summer serve cold soups for supper. Mostly vichysoisse from a can and something called consommé madrilène. I didn’t not like this. The idea of cold soup just didn’t square in my adolescent brain. But like most things, my mother was right. Cold soup is such a perfectly refreshing summer meal. And it is a great opportunity to … [Read more...] about Lady Pea Buttermilk Vichyssoise with Crispy Country Ham

Farro and Herb Minestrone

January 28, 2018 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

There are one million and one delicious versions of an Italian style bean soup that it is almost impossible to narrow down a favorite. So the best thing to do, in my opinion, is to start from scratch, and that is what I’ve done here. I don’t really know if this is technically a minestrone, a pasta e fagioli or what, all I do know is that it is really delicious. I have become a … [Read more...] about Farro and Herb Minestrone

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
