I’m a big fan of their Split Pea Soup. They have put out a cook book but for some reason I couldn’t get it to taste like the restaurant version using their available recipe.

I’m getting ready to spend the weekend cooking, and will have a whole crop of new recipes to post next week. I’m going to try not to eat today in anticipation of the total eat-fest I shall experience. And okay, I’ll most likely eat today. Because it was published here way, way back in the dark ages of the internet (approximately 2009) today I’m bringing this dish out of the archives and up to the front of the pack where it belongs.

Creamy Carrot Soup with Scallions and Poppy Seeds
Frances Janisch total prep Marcia Kiesel's luxuriously creamy soups are the perfect starters for Thanksgiving dinner because they can be made in advance, then reheated and garnished just before serving. Other ideas are Creamy Parsnip Soup with Prosciutto and Creamy Broccoli Soup with Croutons . 2 tablespoon(s) unsalted butter 3 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil 1 large onion, coarsely chopped 1 quart(s) low-sodium vegetable broth 1 quart(s) water 2 pound(s) carrots, sliced 1/3 inch thick 6 large scallions, thinly sliced crosswise 2 teaspoon(s) poppy seeds 1/2 cup(s) heavy cream 1/2 cup(s) milk Salt and freshly ground pepperAlthough the winter has been pretty mild so far I have still been enjoying some hearty soups with the most recent one being this roasted cauliflower and aged white cheddar soup. It never ceases to amaze me how simple vegetable soups like this one can be so good with so few ingredients and that might be why I keep coming back to them. The main vegetable in this soup is of course the cauliflower and it is roasted before being added to the soup to concentrate its flavour and to get a bit of caramelization going. Up next is the basics with the onions and garlic followed by the herb of choice, thyme and finally the cheese. For the cheese I went with a white cheddar and one trick to keep in mind when adding cheese to soup like this is that if you use a stronger flavoured cheese like an aged cheddar then you will not need to use as much of it to get the same flavour.
Roasted Cauliflower and Aged White Cheddar Soup
Homemade tomato soup is good, but roasted tomato soup is even better. With the abundance of tomatoes right now in the markets, this makes great use of all those tomatoes and may be the best tomato soup you will ever have. This method calls for roasting the tomatoes, along with some whole garlic, before making the soup. Roasting the tomatoes concentrates their flavor and adds a depth to the soup that you would not have otherwise. I used beautiful San Marzano tomatoes for this soup because a vendor at my farmer's market had them.
