Full Description
Praise for the fully revised and updated Splendid Soups "Jim Peterson's Splendid Soups is a comprehensive and mouthwatering atlas of the world of soup. It not only covers soups of all nationalities and every garnish, but provides a handy list of sources for every hard-to-find ingredient and kitchen tool, too. More importantly though, through his gargantuan world tour Jim empowers home cooks to strike out on their own and invent new soups. It just makes me want to get into the kitchen and start cooking!" -SARA MOULTON, Host, The Food Network's Cooking Live; Executive Chef, Gourmet magazine; Food Editor, Good Morning America "We love James Peterson. Splendid Soups is a bountiful source of enticing ideas!" -the moosewood collective Authors of the Moosewood Restaurant Cookbooks
