Editorial Review:
The New Covent Garden Food Company was founded in 1988 to make homemade quality soup using entirely natural ingredients, and despite many imitators over the past eighteen years New Covent Garden are still the bestsellers in the fresh soup market. This enduring popularity is a result of New Covent Garden's continuous passion for fresh soup, which they expound as the ultimate, easy-to-make, healthy, delicious meal. Now back with their third book of soup recipes, New Covent Garden have even more new and exciting soups for us to try, from the exotically tangy to the comfortingly wholesome, and this time the recipes are sorted according to when their ingredients are seasonally available to ensure that they taste as fresh and vibrant as possible. Continuing the practical series-style format of a spiral-bound hardback together with the fun and approachable design and tone, this book is an essential addition to even the most reluctant chef's kitchen shelf.

Good variety, not run of the mill Easy to follow recipe instructions, layout easy on the eyes when cooking in a hurry, most soups are a meal in themselves (best way really), no exotic ingredients, and always a yummy taste!! But as a vegetarian, I would have prefered fewer non-veggie ones.
Useful wire-bound format, so it lies flat on your work surface, is an added bonus to this superb book of seasonal recipes. From a passionate company, whose employees obviously take their job very seriously, a useful selection of recipes where the more well-known, such as a simple `Vegetable Stock', and `Bouillabaise' mingle with the more intriguing 'Christmas Dinner Soup' or `Love & Hearts'. 122 high quality pages, split over 8 chapters:- Intro

Absolutely Souper Every kitchen should have a copy of this book. With a wide range of choice for every season it has something for everyone. The 'Beef and Ale Soup' is absolutely delicious as are the other winter warmers, and I look forward to trying some of the summer recipes. I will definately be buying the other Covent Garden recipe books.
