I just made mushroom soup, it feels nice and homey. What are your favorite soups?

Potato and leek soup. Making it it tonight. Can’t wait!!

Roasted butternut squash with carrot and red pepper, needs a good kick of ginger and black pepper.

Chicken soups. Especially the never plain ones with few ingredients.

alphabet soup

Miso or Thai Tom Yum(?)

Split pea with a mountain of crackers

Red chilli and bean soup!

• 1 red capsicum
• 1 medium onion
• 1 celery stick
• 1 medium carrot
• 1 clove garlic
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp chilli powder
• 400g can tomatoes
• 2 tbsp tomato puree
• 700ml vegetable stock
• 1 can mixed beans
• 25g kale leaves, shredded

1. Chop capsicum, celery, carrot, and onion. Crush garlic.
2. Heat oil in large pan, add chopped vegetables, saute for 5 minutes but don't colour the vegetables.
3. Add chilli powder and cook for a minute.
4. Blend the tomatoes and add to the pan with puree and stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.
5. Drain and rinse the beans, stir into the soup with kale. Cook for a few minutes until the beans have warmed and the kale wilted.
6. Season with pepper and serve.

Love this soup! Usually swap the kale for spinach though.

Carrot Orange soup - hear me out, this is awesome. Coarse chop onions and sauté in a soup pot. Add a bunch of chopped carrots and cook with some veg stock. When tender use stick blender to make smooth and add orange juice, salt and pepper to taste. My wife makes this whenever someone is sick or has a surgery and feels weak. It is a magic soup!

Potato stew! Potatoes, onions, carrots, celery, no blending or milk

Do you happen to have a link to the Mushroom soup recipe you made or something similar?

Sometimes I turn leftover rice into avgolemono, a delicious lemony Greek soup.

All my fellow mushroom soup lovers should make some Hungarian mushroom soup sometime. So good.

My favorite soups that I occasionally make are duck pho, lobster bisque (it has been way too long since I've made this one, but it's a lot of work), fish chowder, French onion soup, and Hungarian mushroom soup.

Chicken soup and lentil soup. Especially lentil soup, I can't recommend it enough. Look up merdzimek chorbasy or turkish version of it (dunno how to spell it correctly but the name is same).

I'm making ham and bean soup now. It's super simple - toss a ham hock and chopped ham into a slow cooker with 8C of chicken broth, add a finely chopped onion and a couple cloves of minced garlic, toss in a can of petite diced tomatoes, add a bag of 15 bean mix (soaked overnight), cook on low for 8-12 hours. Season with chili powder, salt, and pepper. Squeeze in the juice from a lemon for brightness. Tastes best after resting for a night in the fridge.

Cream of mushroom soup is top tier along with pumpkin/squash soup, dill pickle soup, lentil, and lemon rice.

I make this cream-based Cajun chicken noodle soup. It’s bonkers good with a slight afterburn counterbalanced by the cream. 11/10 amazing.

When I’d make it for the restaurant, we’d go through half of it just from the staff performing “quality control checks.”

Ok so I keep telling people if nothing else good comes from this shit year, 2025 was the year I learned to appreciate the value of a good home made soup. So, I am so excited to see this post!

I use vegetable better than bullion base, chop a big club of ginger in a food processor then add it to the base, add in 2-3 jalapenos, key lime juice, and Sriracha

While all that's simmering, I sautee red onion, broccoli, and shrimp, then add all that to the soup and let it simmer together for a while. Sometimes I'll add tofu. Usually eat that for a few days. It's awesome especially when you're sick.

Dutch erwtensoep with rookworst.

• miso soup

• beer cheese soup

• sopa azteca

• pozole verde

• carrot-ginger gazpacho

• watermelon gaspacho

• red lentil soup

Mushroom soup is definitely my favorite 🍄

Khao soi

Pumpkin soup, onion soup and of course, rice soup which I also named it poors soup, its only rice + leftovers in the fridge.

Italian style chickpea or lentil soup is always great, you can make them almost the same too (just swap out the legumes)

My regular rotation are:

• tomato bisque
• barley and lentil stew
• broccoli cheddar soup
• ministrone
• black beans (cuban style but vegetarian)
• carrot-ginger soup
• ramyun or ramen
• 5 bean chili

I enjoy but seldom cook a couple of indian soups: rasam and sambar.

Lazy tomato soup. Serves me (1)

Half a can of canned tomatoes (200g)

A red onion, diced

Garlic to taste

Your choice of protein (I loooooove chickpeas)

Add broth to desired thickness

Put everything in pot, simmer for 7-10 minutes and season to taste. Enjoy

My absolute favorite is potato soup, but made like it was a fully loaded baked potato so it has sour cream, chives, cheese and bacon in it.

I made french onion soup yesterday. The house still smells like caramelized onions. I have leftovers, but I ran out of cheese and somebody threw away the rest of the stale baguette.

I used to make a lot of chicken pot pie-esque soups in years past, lots of potatoes and carrots, but lately my go-to is to sautee some onions, bell pepper, celery, carrot, zucchini and whatever else is handy, using sesame oil and a little chili oil, then add water and make packaged ramen noodles in the pot, discarding the powder packet and using soy sauce, oyster sauce and hoisin sauce, sometimes with chopped green onions, minced fresh ginger, garlic and/or crushed peanuts. At the end I throw in a little of whatever meat leftovers I already have, thinly sliced. Very flavorful, sort of a pho vibe, and has the homemade satisfaction.

I've also tried this with non-Asian flavors such as generic Cajun seasongs, cumin, paprika, garlic and chili powder. Ramen noodles are cheap and versatile.

Oooh, it’s been so long since I had mushroom soup. Thanks for the idea!

One of my favorites is Goulash.

Chicken 'n dumplings

Turkey soup

Not too big on soup, but I think egg drop soup is great.

I haven’t yet. Do you fry the bacon then use the fat to sweat the leeks?

I have a green chili stew recipe I love; one of my favorite foods.

• 2-3 Tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 or 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp cumin
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ½ tsp oregano
• 2 to 3 lbs red or gold potatoes, cut into small chunks
• 3 large cans chopped green chilies
• 5 to 6 cups chicken broth
• 2 to 4 tsp canned chopped jalapeños
• 1 ½ to 2 lbs pork loin, cut into small chunks
• 1 to 1 ½ tsp salt, to taste
• Sour cream

Heat the oil in a 2 quart saucepan, add the onion and garlic, and cook, covered, over low heat for about 5 minutes so that the onion can wilt.

Uncover the pan, raise the heat to medium, and stir in the cumin and pepper.

Stir for 2 or 3 minutes, or until the onions start to show signs of browning, then add the chicken broth, oregano, salt, green chilies, jalapeños, & pork. Add potatoes until pot is full.

Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for at least 1 hour.

Remove from heat and let settle for 5 to 10 min.

Serve hot, add sour cream to servings per taste. Garnish with cilantro, avocado, tortilla chips, cracklins, etc.

I have no favorite (beside the ones my grandma used to cook) as all soups can be amazing. I really don't think there is one I would not enjoy eating.

I'm not a massive soup fan, but I will sometimes have carrot soup. Every time I've made soup it's been shit what's your secret @blaze@sopuli.xyz

Seaweed soup with beef.

Ham noodle soup with those extra thick home style noodles and the ham cooked so long it's stringy

Šaltibarščiai, or cold pink soup :3.. which is a popular dish where I live during summer

cream of mushroom and seafood chowder are so delicious. also really like kale soup.

I was gifted a box of fancy dried mushrooms. I pressure cooked a few from each type with my regular beans. Its actually a great combination. Incredibly, mushrooms need more cooking time than beans.

You got it. I make a huge batch and freeze it.
