Raiding your larder can be great fun, particularly when you find soup ingredients ready and waiting. I bet you’ve already got most of these in the kitchen cupboard… particularly welcome news if you are unwilling to face the supermarket in these sub-zero temperatures!
Leftover food should not be an afterthought (especially when we’re talking about a particularly generous Sunday roast beef joint that I had for luncheon the other day.) Save what you can’t manage and allow to cool before refrigerating and livening up in a thick soup the next day. Dabble with a ladle, sluice your soup bowl and let flavourful frugality prevail!
The kitchen tables of Autumn are best bedecked with soup.
