Every year on Christmas Eve my mom and I make soups for Christmas Day lunch. Thought this sub would like to see her Chicken Curry soup and my Loaded Baked Potato soup

I made Alton Brown’s Christmas soup for, uh, Christmas lol. The recipe was skeptically simple but in Alton we trust, and this recipe did not disappoint. Kielbasa sausage, kale, baby red potatoes, and kidney beans. Will definitely be a Christmas staple moving forward!

Really testing the limits here. Curried lentil Tortellini.

Shout out to my Sicilians eating stoccafisso and baccalà tonight 🤌

I added some smoked gouda and used some delicious smoky bacon

I'm making soup wth bones for the first time and it's been cooking for a hour and 30 mins is it safe to eat now? Any advice is appreciated.

Make a version of the Divorce Soup for our family Christmas tomorrow. What is the best way to transport this soup and keep it warm (it’s an hour drive)? I do not have a slow cooker, but I do have an instant pot.

I was thinking about warming it in the instant pot at home and loading the whole thing in the car. I wanted to see if my fellow soup enthusiasts had other suggestions! Thanks!

I call it my Creamy Chicken and Rice soup. So simple and quick to make!

Couple of years back I made a New Year’s resolution to learn a new soup recipe each month. I got to March, French onion, clam chowder (does that count?)? And mulligatawny soup.

I think what threw me off my game was trying to research the right soup each month. This time I would like to try a different tack.

1. How would you go about sourcing your monthly recipe?

2. Based on this, what would be your top 12 soups everyone should know before they die?

3. If you could kindly link your recipes, I believe the world might just be a bit more further ahead for the gathering, recording and sharing of these concoctions of nourishment, hope and power.

Thanks for playing along! Here’s to a good discussion on methodologies!

Edit: for 1: for clarity: I mean how would you go about choosing a soup recipe for each month? Would you base it on countries? Spices? Difficulty to make? Etc.

It's a gnocchi chicken bacon cream soup in the slow cooker. It turned out really really good!

In Canada and looking to purchase a large stock pot (around 64qt) give or take. Currently using aluminium for very large batch cooking and don't like the reactive soft metal, especially with recipes that are heavy on the tomatoes. I assume I will be purchasing online so if anyone has any input on a good heavy bottom stainless stock pot I'd be intrigued.

Used some hoarded shrimp shells that were taking up room in my freezer, langoustine tails approaching freezer burn, veggies that were on their deathbed, and the last bit of cognac from the last time I made a soup. And some other stuff. It came out so velvety and rich and delicious, wish I got better pictures.

Well, I was going to make a creamy gnocchi soup for Christmas as an appetizer. And I did a grocery pick up order. Instead of broth, they gave me chicken stock. Since Christmas Eve is tomorrow, I don’t know when I’m going to have time to run to the store again. how much of a difference is going to make in my soup and any suggestions?

The simple rustic Balkan style chicken soup. The moment the broth hits your palate, you’re transported back to the Balkans as a kid running around the cobble stone streets of the old town to your house to see this golden goodness just waiting for you to warm up your soul.

I made grilled peri peri chicken last night. It’s fine, but I don’t really like eating a big piece of leftover chicken.

3 cups of broth from boiling my Thanksgiving turkey carcass 1 grilled chicken thigh Spaezle noodles Carrot Celery Onion Random spices

Much yummier way to eat my leftovers.

My favorite! This soup is so comforting to me. I actually fell asleep earlier than I usually did that night.
