Delicious simple recipes - By: D. Stevenson, 30 Dec 2008 
We've only made a few recipes so far, but really enjoying the book. As a vegetarian, there are lots of soups for me to try & many that can be made vegetarian eg using veg stock instead of the suggested chicken stock. Very simple recipes to follow, but lots of more complicated ones to try. Excellent results so far. Would recommend.
There are no better books for soup lovers - By: Sabine Zimmermann, 16 Aug 2008 
I've had this book (the older edition) for almost 10 years now & I'm still using it. The recipes always work perfectly, the short little stories over each recipe are fun to read & I've never made any soup from this or the other two books without people asking for second, third &in one case even fourth helpings (and most of the time the soup was supposed to be the starter!). Normally, I make at least double the quantities because of that. Can you say more to show just how yummy the recipes are? This definitely is a book I couln't live without. Everybody should have it!

I have now also purchased the soup & beyond cookbook & made my first soup from that the other day...Parsnip, leek & Lemon. It was superb.
One of the best cookbooks I have ever owned.
The best book of soups in 10 years - By: Jo Wright, 10 Jun 2007 
I've owned this book for about 10 years & it is still the only book I use for making soup. My favourite is the Tuscan Bean soup, but I've made most of them over the years.
The only thing that stops me giving it a 5/5 is the print which still annoys me & has done since I bought it. The black on green is difficult to read, & sometimes the lettering all blends into one. If they made a reprint with standard type I would be the first to buy it!
super soup book - By: J. M. Curzon, 11 Jan 2007 
I can only say that any foodie will be delighted & inspired by the soupsin the book. You can take the theme & develop it & produce tailor made specials to suit you & your family. My favorite is the spicy peanut soup, it is a real winner. My best tip is to make a large pot of stock & freezein meal size bags. then when you want to make a soup it only takes a short while with not too much preparation. My children love the soups & keep trying to persuade us to try new ones.
A real winner!
