Cook the Book: 'Japanese Hot Pots'
I love love anything soup. My mother used to tease me when I was younger and call me a soupatarian. I grew up loving minestrone soup and eating my grandmother's arroz caldo. Now I love pho and udon. They're pretty much on my weekly rotation.

I'm a simple kind of lady, so my favorite soup is homemade chicken noodle. I like to make it with escarole and egg noodles. It's just so delicious.

Currently I crave the Thai Suki after reading all this. I'm sad that I never see it in the states. My fav place in Thailand is MK restaurants. Super cold restaurant, super hot soup!

homemade soups, starting with meat bones and ending with seasonal vegetables....the best! takes hours to simmer on the stove...but the end results are used in so many meals...the simplest being laddled into a big bowl and with a crusty bread on the side.

When I went to stay with my aunt and uncle this past summer, my aunt's mom made potato bacon soup for dinner one night. It was delicious! :)

Wild rice soup. A thick, creamy base with vegetables and chicken added. Top with parmesan cheese and homemade croutons.

growing up, my mother made the best borsht. It was full of potatoes and meat and was so good and hearty.

My favorite meal worthy soup would be homemade bean soup with ham and bacon in it. I make it with a ham bone and let it simmer for about 3 hours. Very tasty and filling. I also like my mom's homemade vegetable soup with fresh veggies from the garden! Mmm good!

My mother made a hearty chicken noodle soup with lots of chicken and vegetables. garrettsambo@aol.com

My Momma liked to make big ol pots of soups and stews. All us kids and our kids would come over and eat. Sometimes she'd be creative and add different things. My Daddy would smell it and come in and ask what she was cooking. She would tell him she was making "stuff". It was funny. She was a great cook.

I love a good Colombian sancocho with lots of garlic and cumin!

Nothing beats a rich, hearty samgyetang (Korean chicken stew made with ginseng, medicinal herbs and a tender guinea hen stuffed with sticky rice and plump red jujubes).

My fav. meal worth soup is a big bowl of old fashioned home made chicken stew with veggies

I love Tuscan white bean soup.
Cook the Book: 'Japanese Hot Pots'
I love to make a Korean soup made with fresh chicken cooked in water and spiced with plenty of grated fresh ginger. The chicken is shredded, and a cup or two of cooked rice is added to the broth and cooked until the soup has the consistency of "chowder." Serve in Oriental bowls and garnished with sliced green onions and Korean sesame salt. Delish, and very healing if you are suffering from respiratory "flu."

I'd have to say Split Pea and Lobster Bisque, my favorites! Thank you!
Cook the Book: 'Japanese Hot Pots'
A nice, warm bowl of beef or chicken curry (Japanese-style) cooked with just the right amount of veggies. It's not quite soup but I purposely thin it out so that it has that soupy feel to it. Warms you up and sticks with you all day plus leaves your house smelling wonderful for days. :)

We make a mean minestrone!
Cook the Book: 'Japanese Hot Pots'
My favorite meal worthy soup is my Salmon Chowder. It has bacon, onions, celery, carrots, potatoes, corn and salmon in a creamy chowder base. Add a loaf of garlic bread & you have a spectacular meal!
