Poll: Your favorite soup

uniquely-ironic posted on Apr 07, 2009 | views: 685 | Tags: food, food glorious food, soups, yum, yummy
Well, it's raining liquid sunshine here today, so I'm considering my lunch options.  I'd like to perhaps get something warm.  Tonight is definately a soup kind of night.  Nothing cozier in my mind than listening to the rain on your roof while  eating some soup at home.
 
So .............. [drum roll]
 
What is your favorite soup?

    I love broccoli cheddar soup!!  A close second is corn potato chowder.
  • the_infernal_optimist said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Assuming chili doesn't count as soup, my fave is potato soup. There used to be a restaurant here called Bennigan's that made the BEST potato soup ever...bacon bits, shredded cheese on top, the works! It was thick and chowder-like and just soooo good.

  • MissMimi said on Apr 07, 2009....
    mmmm  Broccoli cheese soup is yummy.
     
    I like clam chowder (New England).  The other day I had some wonderful minestrone at an Italian restaurant.
     
    My favorite is French onion soup.  Mmmmmm
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    TIO - I've heard of Bennigan's but never been there.  That soup certainly does sound good.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    MMM - you snuck in while I was commenting!  My daughter makes this really good french onion soup!  I'll get the receipe from her if you'd like.
  • MissMimi said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Oooh yes, please!  I would be in heaven!  My own personal supply!  :D
  • nytquill17 said on Apr 07, 2009....
    I like my own recipes best: fish chowder (or leave the fish out and it becomes potato chowder), or chicken soup (trade the noodles for lentils).  It's a perfect day for soup here too; too bad I don't have anything on hand to make it with.
  • CayenneMan said on Apr 07, 2009....
      My oh my, now you've got me started on soups . . .  you and I don't think on the same level. Visit the East coast and give me a call. I'll dine you. You'll never want to go home.     I like Thailand soups, but then again, I like coconut milk. I'll show you Heaven on earth.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    nytquill - lentil and chicken soup sounds delicious!  I don't have anything to make soup with either, so I'm trekking down to the deli for something.
     
    CM - I'm not a fan of coconut milk.  I do like Miso and other asian style soups as well, but not more than a good creamy or chowder style soup.
  • the_infernal_optimist said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Ooh, damn, I forgot about Miso soup...that ties for me, unless it's really cold out.

    If you have a Bennigan's, check them out! You won't be sorry.

    ~Infernal
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    TIO - I'll have to google it and find out.  I love a good Miso or eggflower soup.
  • fragglesrock said on Apr 07, 2009....
    hmmm...soups? i don't think soup is really food. give me a steak instead ;-) haha!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    frags - well, what about steak and potato soup by Campbell?  They make a pretty hearty soup.
  • evil_twin said on Apr 07, 2009....
    I love all kinds of soup. I love a good beef vegetable, potato cheese, Italian Wedding soup, split pea. I like it all except for clam chowder (or anything with seafood in it) and broccoli. Blech.

    -evil_twin LA
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    ET - I'm not a fan of clam chowder either, but I like broccoli.  Marie Calender's makes an awesome potato cheese soup.  Have you had it?
  • beyondtheveil said on Apr 07, 2009....
    unique- I make soup all year. My favorite is one that is close to green chili stew made with shredded sirloin, fresh roasted green chili peppers, red potatoes, red peppers, celery, onions, tomatoes, and many spices. I like a good Tortilla soup also. 

    But then, I don't think Ive met the soup I didn't like.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    BTV - that soup sounds really good!  I'm a seasonal souper. (wow, that sounded weird)  If I could tolerate cold "soups" I probably would eat them year round.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Pho is my favourite, vietnamese beef soup, coming in second is pumpkin and sour cream soup Yummmeeeee....
     
    Cheese and boccolli soup? WTF?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Lu - I'll make it when I'm there if we can get the stuff for it.  Basically its a creamed soup with broccoli and cheddar.  I like viet beef, will eat Pho and have never tried pumpkin and sour cream.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Okay you do brocci soup I'll do my famous pumpkin soup...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Lu - I see a menu starting to form ........
  • secretlife said on Apr 07, 2009....
    my favorite is corn and potatoe chowder too....
    and i love brocolli cheddar.
     
    other than those two, i'm not a huge soup fan-
     
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    SL - well, those are the best two! ;)
  • travelr712 said on Apr 07, 2009....
    it sorta depends on my mood, and how much i had to drink the night before...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    trav - I would think if you had been drinking some sort of starchy soup would go down good.
  • travelr712 said on Apr 07, 2009....
    yeah, usually cream of mushroom or chicken noodle does the trick
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    trav - chicken soups of all sort are the cure for many ails. :)
  • Hegemone said on Apr 07, 2009....
    I think of all the different soups I've had, good 'ol fashioned chicken noodle still beats all the rest.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Hege - I love chicken noodle when I'm sick.  Nothing cures a cold like good old fashioned chicken noodle.
  • nonameneeded said on Apr 07, 2009....
    i agree with bot infernal and mimi... potato and clam chowder...

    but on those cold winter nights when its just me and my Dear... nothing beats the comfort of good thick tomato soup with a grilled cheese sandwich (sharp cheddar).

    yumm...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    noname - My kids love tomato soup with grilled cheese made on sourdough.  I can't say that I've ever turned it down either! ;)
  • nonameneeded said on Apr 07, 2009....
    oh and chili's also makes a kick ass potato soup...

    never had pumpkin soup... pumpkin juice is awesome though...
  • KathQuiet said on Apr 07, 2009....
    I love soup.  Good homemade or homemade-like soup.  Gotta brag that I make great soup!  I learned from a Quebecoise aunt who could transform leftovers into the most wonderful creations.  Favorite soup...hm...that's tough....cream of asparagus has to be it, made with fresh asparagus cooked tender in chicken broth, thickened with cream cheese.  It is heavenly with a hot yeast roll. 
     
  • KathQuiet said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Mom used to make a good poor-man's soup, which is a potato and corn chowder with sliced frankfurters in it, seasoned with onion and bay leaf.  That's another favorite, with Boston brown bread.
  • KathQuiet said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Okay, one more soup post.  : )  Lima bean-and-ham, with carrots.  That's on the stove tonight.  So cheap and so yummy.  I gotta go mix up the corn bread to go with it. 
  • gingersoul said on Apr 07, 2009....
    U-nee-k.....well.....not necessarily in this order....

    Lentil soup
    Tuscany Four beans soup
    Minestrone soup
    Potato and leek soup
    French onion soup

    Some of them served with a bottom layer of fresh baked bruschetta...

    What can i say? I looove soups....;-)
      
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    i want your soup recipes! all of the! everyone's! yes, yours too!

    i don't own cook books but my Friend is an awesome cook so some soups to try would be awesome.

    thanks

    sir.
  • gingersoul said on Apr 07, 2009....
    LOL......this is great soup passion!...

    Ok, Sir....from a soup lover to another one....
    I will PM you with some of mine ..ok? 
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    woo!
    can't wait to smell the lovely broths of life being brewed in my kitchen...
  • silver_phoenix said on Apr 07, 2009....
    u-i~ chicken tortilla soup is my favorite! gotta put tortilla chips and shred some cheese to throw in and it's perfect :-D
  • gingersoul said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Sir.......check your PM......:-)
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    i already did... i keep aim open as well as sc when i'm online.

    thanks... again, again.

    she seems happy to be finally allowed to cook for me.
    she is Hispanic and i dont much care for Hispanic food (besides enchiladas) so i always cook, stuff like hamburger pie and squash casserole, American food.
    never bothered learning soups, i just buy them but nothing beats home made.
  • Idk... said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Vegatable and beef soup!!!
    Home made is the best! And my second would be egg drop, yum....
     
     
     
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    i've always wondered what egg drop was made out of... i know theres eggs but whats the rest?
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....

    Kath - I gotta try the asparagus soup some time.  Sounds absolutely delicious.

     

  • CayenneMan said on Apr 07, 2009....
      Oh shit !    Here comes the soup nazi again !



  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....

    Well shit!  I had comments for everyone but the fucking program ate them.

    Needless to say, all the soups above sound yummy!!!

  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    hate it when sc eats posts, lately it's been really hungry too!
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    CM - when I worked at Stanford U they had this little hole in the wall soup place.  A guy would walk down the line and bark out "What!" and you had to answer immediately with what you wanted or he'd skip over you and you were SOL.  This always reminded me of the soup Nazi.
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    we had one of those when i lived in houston... hated that bastard but they had uber good samiches and soups so i just kept coming back.

    got banned for grabbing the guy when he skipped me one day.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Sir - LOL that's too funny!  I was never quick enough to bitch slap that little bastard who would come screaming down the line.
  • Sir. said on Apr 07, 2009....
    i've always been good about getting people who don't show me proper treatment.
    i'm the fucking customer for christ's sake!
    i took half a second too long and he started walking off for the second time (it was a bar style restaurant, long counter with stools) so i reached over the counter and grabbed him by the collar and said "i'm ready to order" in a super calm voice (i get really calm sounding when i'm pissed, i never swear or yell if i'm actually mad) because he'd done this twice before and i was polite about it. i let him know prevously that his order taking skills were lacking (it was never busy when i came and after taking orders the asshole would just stand around smoking cigarettes) and i needed time to explain my order in detail...

    well any way i let him know i was ready to order and he threatened to call the cops for assualt.

    by the way, i was 16.
    he must have been 30 and twice my size... pussy.
  • dreamloser said on Apr 07, 2009....
    stuffed backed potato soup! with cheese and bacon! omg amazing!
  • Zayda said on Apr 07, 2009....

    Chicken with Wild Rice Soup
    Tomato and Rice Soup
    Cannelini Bean Soup
    Bean with Bacon Soup
    Minestrone Soup
    Hot and Sour Soup
    Wonton Soup

    Italian Wedding Soup
  • JodiJo said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Broccoli Cheese
    Porchini Mushroom Soup
    Hot and Sour Soup
    Miso Soup
  • GrapeKoolaid said on Apr 07, 2009....
    Ferny:  OMG!!!  Seriously...  Bennigan's potato soup and miso?!!!  Are you sure you're not asian?  Look in the mirror and check...  I think we might have been separated at birth... 

    When Ginger came and visited me, we went to this Chinese restaurant to have dinner one night.  One of the dishes we had was this soup.  I don't know how I would write the name of the dish in English, but it's approximate translation is "mixed-up", or a "hodgepodge".  Sounds like leftover parts, right?  Pretty much. 

    But it's the damn tastiest soup you've ever had...  The broth is hot and spicy, with a menacing red color to boot.  It has these chewy rice noodles in it, and it's filled with all kinds of goodness.  Shrimp, squid, mushrooms, beef, carrots...  Like I said, leftover parts. 

    That soup was fan-freakin'-tastic!  Ginger, can I get an amen? 
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....

    dream - I've tried that kind of soup and it's on par with potato chowder

    Z - yup! I think a person could live quite well of soups every day with the sheer variety of them.

    JodiJo - I had forgotten about hot and sour.  I love it when I have a cold.  It's one of the few that I can still taste with a stuffy nose

    Grape - some of the best soups are "kitchen sink" types. 

     

  • scipio said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Sweet corn and cream of chicken soup
    Onion Soup
  • nonameneeded said on Apr 08, 2009....

    my Frriend (we aren't "together" by the way) made the minestrone, fricken awesome!
    well i'm in a happy drunk mood so i'm on under my alter-ego but rest assured it is infact me... sir. mike whatever...

    daqmn hiccups...
    oh, puked some of it up (have a habit of drinking straight gin when drunk) and it is just as good coming up as it is going down...

    i played pool, and it's free beer night at shooters so i'm mildly plasterede.

    don't mind the typos (something that really irritates me when i'm sober)...

    grr. glod schlagger and gin is bitchen...

    ok, enough... not onn topic any more...

    soup was great... keep em coming.
  • Italia21086 said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Split Pea with Ham soup or Italian Wedding. No can shit either it has to be home made. Mmmm... yummy.
  • thesamedifferences said on Apr 08, 2009....
    pumpkin soup with white pepper !
  • queenparanoia said on Apr 08, 2009....

    mushroom soup.

    pancit molo or what you called meatball dumpling with chicken broth. (it's a soup in my hometown).

  • CreativeWoman said on Apr 08, 2009....
    I really love soup.  :-)  Here are some of my favorites that I make from scratch.

    Oyster Stew
    Beef & Noodles
    Ham and Beans

    Sometimes for a quick meal I love tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.

    Great post.  :-)

    CW
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....

    scipio - that first soup sounds delish

    noname - drunk blogging?

    Italia - normally I like home made, but Anderson's Split Pea is great

     

  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....

    TSD - you and Lu should compare receipes

    queenie - mushroom is so universal

    CW - never have heard of oyster stew.  I bet it tastes great

  • CreativeWoman said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Oyster Stew is very simple.  I make mine with oysters, milk, butter, salt and pepper.  It's so good with a few saltine crackers.  I had it a lot growing up.

    CW
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CW - sounds a lot like chowdery kinds of soups.
  • CreativeWoman said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Campbell Soup even has a canned variety that you just add milk to if you want to try it sometime.  Homemade is better though.  :-)

    CW
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CW - homemade is always better ;)
  • CayenneMan said on Apr 08, 2009....
      My God I forgot about the ham and beans, bring it on :o)  !
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CM - having been raised kosher I haven't really had a lot of ham and beans.
  • CayenneMan said on Apr 08, 2009....
     I haven't had ham and beans in years, probably not since I was a kid. my mother would start it off early in the morning by soaking navy beans in water for hours  . . .I think ? My God when it was finished it would be great, I sure wish I could find some now.  With all this talk we could open up a soup shop of our own, you in  ;o) ? 
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CM - sure!  I've cooked professionally before.  A soup restaurant would be a piece of cake.
  • CayenneMan said on Apr 08, 2009....
      Do you're homework and find out what it takes .   And B-i-n-g-o was his name o.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CM - in a word? Money.  Location wouldn't hurt either.  Restraunts have an average life span of about 7 years.  The first year or two they establish themselves, the next 3 years they are profitable, the last two years they go into a slow decline.  You can either reinvent the place or close it after that.
  • CayenneMan said on Apr 08, 2009....
      To get started as a promotional campaign maybe we could offer pistachio nuts at the door  !    That way they wouldn't be able to blame it on the soup ?
  • Brunettebmshell said on Apr 08, 2009....
    La Bou has a fabulous Spicy Thai Basil soup.... I think that's what it is called. SO good, but definitely spicy.

    Also, after Thanksgiving my grandma makes a really good homemade turkey noodle soup which is amazing during the winter. Mmmmhmmm mmmm! Now I'm hungry! <<<*searches for nearest sandwhich/soup shop*>>>

  • Psych-ed said on Apr 08, 2009....

    I don't usually loathe soup (to many mandatory liquid diets) but lately I've been in love with the spring onion rice noodle soup bowls from Trader Joe's. They're on sale for $1 now and I bought all they had on the shelf, I've eaten one everyday for the past week.

  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CM - LOL good idea!
     
    BB - I'm not a fan of super spicy foods.  I'm more a savory type.  The turkey soup sounds good though.
     
    Psych-ed - wow, that's some kind of love!  I'll have to go to my local TJs and at least try it.
  • Sir. said on Apr 08, 2009....
    uniquely-yep... man was i fricken plastered.... spent the day digging trenches and running 220 line (power) for my grandfather at his house and by the time i was done i was like "i think i'll have a beer or twelve" and when i got to eight my friend josh decided to go play pool (free beer night btw) so i went with him and lost count after that....
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Sir - silly man.  Don't you know it's dangerous to drink and blog?  Of course here we love ya, but in the real world it could get dicey.
  • Sir. said on Apr 08, 2009....
    :) just found a number in my pocket... leigha... weird name...
    theres a side note under the name, could be marred or married... hope it's neither.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Sir - steer clear anyways.  Let's just say that you could have been looking at her with beer goggles on. ;)
  • nonameneeded said on Apr 08, 2009....
    well, i'm going to ask josh who it was, he's the emo type who gets all pissy cuz i got the nuts (and lack of shame) to walk up to just about any girl and strike up conversation so chances are he will remember exactly who she is...
    i think i deciphered the note, i think it says "married"

    that, and i tend to be a fairly coherent drunk, haven't woken up next to any uglies yet.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    well then I'll wish you good luck with that ;)

  • travelr712 said on Apr 08, 2009....
    nothing against you uni, but it just amazes me. i write blogs on politics, religion, space exploration, higher education, interpersonal relationships, and they maybe get 10 comments. you write one on soup, and people come outa the woodwork to comment! i just don't get it!
  • Sir. said on Apr 08, 2009....
    thats cuz soup is tasty and politics and religion are a bit harder to swallow.
    oh, and i don't think many people care much about space exploration now that we figured out it's a big nothingness full of micro meteors and pretty gas balls.
    if space had meatballs and lo mein then we'd be all over that shit.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    CM - :oP
     
    trav - well, it's definately not the intellectual prowess on my part.  I guess everyone feels qualified to talk about soup. 
     
    Sir - you said it more eloquently
  • travelr712 said on Apr 08, 2009....
    i guess maybe you got something there uni. i write most of my posts with the idea of starting a conversation, and don't really consider whether a person is 'qualified' or not to speak on a subject in this blog. i mean, it's pretty much all just opinion anyway. if i want a good argument, i'll look up curmudgeon or d6 or alienated, they love to debate. maybe it's my views on religion that put people off? maybe i'm just generally a bristly sort? maybe i expect too much? maybe i'll have polish sausage for dinner? questions, questions, where's the answer???!!!???
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    trav - I think by in large that people have opinions about all of those things.  Qualified or not.  But the difference is whether or not people feel qualified or enough trust to put those opinions out there.  If you pick something non-threatening but fun, people are more willing to share.  And ..... I like soup.
  • travelr712 said on Apr 08, 2009....
    well i suppose that's true uni, my post on men sitting to pee did ok. and, like they say, soup is good food :-)
  • Sir. said on Apr 08, 2009....
    speaking of sausage... my friend josh is making it for dinner tonight... creepy
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Sir - seems a little bit twilight zone-ish to me too.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 08, 2009....
    I make a mean beetroot soup! I forget the proper name for it.
     
    That and black eyed bean soup with chorizo! spicy heaven on a cold winter night.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Lu - not sure what a beet root is either.  Sounds good though.  I like both black eyed beans and chorizo, but spicy only if there's plenty of milk.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 08, 2009....
    wuss!  beetrott, are you kidding? good old beetroot! beetroot on your hamburger kind of beetroot, bright red root thats called a beet! beetroot.... the best root this side of the pacific! LOL
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    we just call them beets.  Are you talking about borsch?
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 08, 2009....
    yes yes yes thats it, borsch, god my memory sucks!  Its very old fashioned but I like it.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    It's a good soup.  I can't say I know how to make it, but we used to get it at home now and then.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 08, 2009....
    takes for frigging ever to prepare and make though so I do it maybe once a year in winter.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Lu - too bad I lost touch with my college friend.  She'd make a huge batch of the stuff and then can it in glass jars so you could have it all winter long.
  • Zayda said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Ohhh...I forgot about black bean soup with chorizo. It's spicy and really good with a sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese and a dollop of sour cream on it.
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 08, 2009....
    Z - I think I've had something like that.  It was delicious!  Still prefer my creamed soups though.
  • javadewd said on Apr 12, 2009....
    French onion... It's the only thing that would keep me from nuking that stupid bunch of pussies if I had my thumb on the big red button. "Viva la... Um, we give up."
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 13, 2009....
    java - LOL good to know that we have something to lure you away from the button with ;)  French onion is among my top 10.
  • javadewd said on Apr 13, 2009....
    I wish I could find a good recipe for clam chowder... Something lighter than most...
  • uniquely-ironic said on Apr 13, 2009....
    java - I'm afraid I'm not much help as I don't eat shellfish, but maybe one of the other SCers can help you out.
  • Lucytorial said on Apr 13, 2009....
    actually Ginger gave a recipe for clam chowder once I think... It was on one of her posts actually, so I'm sure Ginger could help!

    Hey, Java and Sir......i am here.....what's up, boys?....;-)
    Sorry i didn't follow up with this post...
    If you are still interested and around...

    Java....you ask for a good Clam Chowder Soup?

    There it goes:

    1/4 cup Olive Oil
    3 Tablespoons Parsley, fresh, chopped
    4 Garlic Clove, finely chopped
    2 Green Onion, tops and all finely chopped
    1 Red Chili, small, seeded and finely chopped
    1 pound Clams, fresh, shucked, drained and chopped
    1 can Tomato, imported pear-shaped (28-ounce can), drained
    1/2 cup dry white Wine
    1 cup Ditalini, uncooked (thimble-shaped pasta)
    8 cups Water
    1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
    1 1/2 teaspoons Salt


    Heat oil in a 4-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Saute' parsley, garlic, onions and chili in oil.
    Stir in clams. Cover and cook for 5 minutes.
    Process tomatoes in food processor or blender until finely chopped. Stir tomatoes, water, wine, salt and pepper into clams. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    Stir in Ditalini. Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until Ditalini are tender.

    Now, when my mom would make this soup in the summer she would put it in the fridge to cool down for maybe one hour (eaten the next day was even better)...and then we would eat it with some chilled white wine and bruschetta (but only if she would not use the pasta...we never eat bread with pasta together and if you let the soup stay too long the pasta get all mushy...not good).

    In the wintertime, its just great nice warm, with red wine.
    Also, you can make it thicker or more liquidy controlling the amoun of wine and water you use.

    Hope you like it, guys!
