 I started a "what's your favorite soup" thread too, a couple months back. Great minds are thinking alike. 
It's hard for me to pick a favorite soup, because I like just about all of them. I probably would have to go with cream of potato soup, or maybe New England clam chowder.   Yay for soup threads!
I like potato soup too, I forgot about that... creamy potato and leek soup with some bacon in it Potato and leek soup with bacon sounds awesome! RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I am making a vegetable soup again today, the one I made on Sunday was unbelievably good  (I never really made any soups before). Todays one has lots of celery, so it will have a different flavour and texture, and hopefully as nice  | |

what's in it? apart from the jerusalem artichokes? There are many different ways of doing it (you can google the recipies) and I'm a consumer rather than a cook so I can't say how to do it right, I can only say when it's been done right. 
I'm pretty sure the best version of it that I've ever tried contained a few drops of white wine though, which is unusual. . | |

 I will try this for SURE, right when I've looked up some of the words and the exact measurement of a culinary cup

Please keep in mind that mexican grandma's do not use recipe's, they are of the school of a pinch of this a pinch of that. In my big soup pot, I fill it half full with water.I add 6 chicken legs, and one chicken breast, bone and all. Add 1 table spoon of salt,3cubes of chicken broth.I add whole black peppers, and cloves, about 8 of each,one whole brown onion,six cloves of garlic, I peel off theskinand add whole, I do not mince. By this point in time the water may be boiling and you will need to skim the top of soup, you take a big spoon and just clear off the top, it get's a little layer of fat. Next, you add one bunch of cilantro, you wash it real well, and cut up a whole bunch, like they sell in the market minus the stems. Add to the soup, you also need some cumin powder, I add about one tablespoon. You keep your soup at a low simmer, now you start chopping up your veggies: 6 small red potato's, peeled and quartered, 3 celery stalks cut into bite size, 4 whole carrots, peeled and cut to bite size. After your soup has been cooking for a simmer for about 45 minutes, you can add, your vegetables, and 1/4 cup of white rice RAW not cooked. I also add one can of COOKED whole pinto beans, and one bag of DEFROSTED carrots and peas. I keep cooking at a small boil until my chicken if cooked. About 1 hour and 15 minutes cooking time, total. I really hope this made sense to you all. I am no chef, but I do cook for a family of 5 everynight, and I learned from 2 of the best little ol' mexican cooks in the world....My Mom and Grandmother. [Edited 4/23/07 11:14am] thank you!! i'm going to have to cook this when i have people over for supper sometime... | |
