Sixteen soups to warm up with this Succot - The Jewish Chronicle

Quick and easy – with Succot coming around it’s definitely soup season. With so many al fresco meals, we’ll all need a repertoire of recipes.

1. Mixed mushroom – Silvia Nacamulli’s seasonal recipe uses fresh and dried fungi for a flavour-filled broth that’s light enough for a starter but hearty enough as lunch with plenty of bread and cheese.

15. Superfast pea soup has become a staple in our house since I wrote this recipe. It’s made in minutes and the best way I can think of to use a bag of frozen peas.
