Soup Thread

It's that time of year again. Cold as fuck outside, cold as fuck inside, and you are hungry. Nothing beats some good ol hot soup. Share your soup recipes for fellow anons trying to survive the winter chill and eat decently during the holiday work rush.

I sometimes make sweet & sour soup. sorry for the lack of specific amounts of ingredients, you kinda have to just eyeball it and go by taste.

>put a quart or two of chicken or turkey stock/broth in pot
>add frozen stir fry vegetables and/or fresh chopped vegetables, depending on how lazy you are
>add seasonings
>ground or grated ginger
>red pepper flakes
>salt or maybe soy sauce
>dollop of honey
>lemon juice to taste
>couple big spoons of apricot jam
>could also add a bit of pineapple juice
>the point is to get a nice mixture of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy
>dice up chicken or turkey, or brown up some ground turkey
>add to soup
>as soon as soup is boiling, add some soup-appropriate noodles
>serve when noodles are done (I don't like super snappy vegetables in soup, I like them a little softer, this seems to get them done enough without being mushy)

sounds weird I guess, but I like it

Not at all. Just a bit too sweet maybe but a nice change from the traditional tomato or potato soup.

Me too, user.
Also, I had some fantastic asparagus soup at a restaurant some time ago. It was pretty thin but the taste was ace, I think they strained it and added a bit of cream
