@fuzzmanmatt Wow. I wasn’t aware it could be made in that manner. And if that’s how you make it, but eating it makes you bloated, I guess that sounds like quite the infinite process.
I haven’t had Campbell’s in years, but now I’m missing the chicken and rice, chicken and stars, beef barley, scotch broth, bean with bacon, etc. of my childhood. Mmm mmm good. (Maybe not so mmm mmm good in retrospect.)
I love soup. I love to make throw-shit-in-a-pot-and-wait soup. Maybe I should buy this thing.
Voted for clam chowder, but where’s chili? It’s like the most traditional soup here (awesome too, if done right), surprised it’s not in the list.
Being a sneaky fuckin’ Russian, I do love myself a good soup, yes sir, although the art of soup is unfortunately almost lost here in the US. Nobody has the proper ingredients for mushroom soup (the right mushrooms just don’t grow here) or knows how to cook borscht right. All restaurants ever have is chili, chicken noodle & vegetable beef… Oh well.
When I was little I used to get clam chowder at leverocks(sp?) in Florida. They moved to a shittier venue and upped their prices, plus I don’t eat seafood anymore. There wasn’t any real point to that story, but it used to be a fun place to eat 15 or so years ago.
@serpent Lamb or Beef? Looked up the recipe. Cherries? Plums? Walnuts? Cilantro or Mint? Some with, some without. Tomatoes, tomato paste, or ketchup? The recipes were all over the place.
Link to a good one?
The important part is to make both rice and beef really, really tender. If done right, both will melt in your mouth. Don’t use ketchup, it’s a perversion. The “fruity” recipes are very tricky to balance right.
@spitfire6006006 Maybe it’s a “stewp.” Hate the word.
Isn’t the difference between the two decided by the spoon test? If a spoon can stand up straight in the middle, it’s a stew. If it can’t, it’s soup.
Didn’t realize until this poll how much I like soup AND stews.
@sammydog01 Why you cheeky monkey While I enjoy a good Maryland crab soup (since I now live in MD), I will not endorse a tomato based Clam Chowdah. The New Yorker’s ruined it!
potato bacon, and spicy lentil and split and ham and manhattan clam chowder. and kapusta. Needless to say being with me when I order in a restaurant when I’m hungry is a trying experience.
I love me some carrot ginger soup. And on a rare occasion, Snapper soup. Though having a pet turtle for over 30 years makes me wistful when eating it.

I guess I’m a little biased, but, I love my mom’s Chicken Corn soup. It’s so yummy. It’s just a basic chicken broth made from cooking whole chicken breasts. It has corn (obviously, lol), potatoes, hard boiled eggs (chopped up). Maybe one or two other things. Can’t think of the recipe off the top of my head. I’ve tried making it a few times but it never turns out as good as when my mom makes it.
I had a pumpkin soup in this little cafe in a tiny town in western New South Wales that was amazing. The closest thing to it here in the US is butternut squash soup. Not quite the same thing, though.
Gumbo’s a close second, but it’s hard to get the good stuff where I live. Even making it myself, I’m just too far from the coast to get fresh seafood for any reasonable price.
@jachee I think we must have hit “Say it” more or less simultaneously.
I love me some gumbo, but it’s really hard to find any worth having in northern Indiana. I have family on the Gulf Coast, though, and I more or less live on the stuff when I go to visit them.
Italian Wedding Soup - Preferably my mother’s since my Italian grandmother is gone. Mom asked her for the recipe and like a typical bitter Italian grandmother, she left out one or two things. But mom figured it out… I’d do pretty much anything in the world for that soup.
Recently started making a cheesy enchilada soup. It uses a whole block of sharp cheddar freshly grated and thickened with a good bit of corn flour. Super simple recipe, too.
Clam chowder, Chili and Tomato soup without the fucking basil fucking nature who thought basil tomato soup was a good idea it just tastes like the blood of a thousand basils.
@guacho713 omg, this Thai/Asian place by me has awesome Tom kha soup. I love it so much. We have to be wary of the tomato wedge they put it in because it’s approximately as hot as lava.
I only said tomato because the grilled cheese and tomato soup combo has been one of my favorite meals since I was really little. Add some goldfish crackers in there, and it is perfect.
Vegetable beef with barley (think like Progresso Traditional Beef Barley canned soup, only many times better).
Red Lobsters Lobster Bisque
@mehbee I second the lobster bisque part. Never had it from red lobster, but it’s hard to go wrong with a cream based lobster soup

Soup in general. Love it. Make and eat it all the time.
Cereal.
@narfcake: @thismyusername beat you
@jqubed That wasn’t there when I started my reply.
Dammit, @sammydog01! - are you chewing on the ethernet cords again?!?
@narfcake Nope, totally not me.
@sammydog01 Goat soup
Maryland Crab soup
Gazpacho!
Also, borscht!
@brhfl Look at you being all worldly and all!
@brhfl love Borscht!
My homemade bean & ham soup. Yum.
I enjoy pea soup
@conandlibrarian Ha! Love that pic. I also do love pea soup with ham and Ritz crackers.
@conandlibrarian I liked pea soup until just now.
@conandlibrarian For some reason I don’t get to see that image.
My mom makes a great split pea soup with ham hock
French onion by fart! Especially homemade. Making it makes me cry, eating it makes me bloat, but it’s so damn tasty I just don’t care.
@fuzzmanmatt I picked French onion also, but there has to be a more conventional way to make it. That sounds incredibly disgusting.
@fuzzmanmatt Wow. I wasn’t aware it could be made in that manner. And if that’s how you make it, but eating it makes you bloated, I guess that sounds like quite the infinite process.
What, no beer cheese soup?
ice cream
Love soup but probably my fav is Italian Wedding soup
I haven’t had Campbell’s in years, but now I’m missing the chicken and rice, chicken and stars, beef barley, scotch broth, bean with bacon, etc. of my childhood. Mmm mmm good. (Maybe not so mmm mmm good in retrospect.)
I love soup. I love to make throw-shit-in-a-pot-and-wait soup. Maybe I should buy this thing.
@currawong For only 8 dollars? Heck, YES! Didn’t realize how much I needed an immersion blender until I bought one. This thing’s a steal.
I make a few soups that are pretty tasty, but my potato soup is better than a blowjob – and i love a good blowjob.
@capguncowboy
@capguncowboy So this means I need to stick my junk in the soup?
@awk Blow on it first…
to cool it off.
The soup, I mean.

Chicken Wild Rice soup… In a bread bowl. Mmmmmmm.

Also…
@serpent isn’t chili more of a stew?
@RiotDemon Could be either. It really depends on how it is cooked - some are more liquid, some are more solid, both could be awesome.

Forgot to mention kharcho soup. Beautiful, beautiful stuff. Recommend it to everybody - doesn’t taste like anything else I’ve tried.
@serpent Lamb or Beef? Looked up the recipe. Cherries? Plums? Walnuts? Cilantro or Mint? Some with, some without. Tomatoes, tomato paste, or ketchup? The recipes were all over the place.

@LaVikinga Try this for starters, looks like a very good recipe to me: http://natashaskitchen.com/2016/03/29/beef-soup-kharcho/
The important part is to make both rice and beef really, really tender. If done right, both will melt in your mouth. Don’t use ketchup, it’s a perversion. The “fruity” recipes are very tricky to balance right.
@serpent that original pic threw me off but my grandmother (Croatian) made that - and sounds like the links you put up. Really good stuff!
@serpent Thank you for the link! I went down the rabbit hole for a good hour reading all her recipes.
Bookmarked!
I think chili’s more of a stew than a soup

America’s Test Kitchen - Thai Chicken Soup! Yummy
Chowder is NOT soup.
http://www.abigslice.com/bisqueorchowder.html
@connorbush Come on, say it right. It’s ‘chowdah.’
Primordial
@mfladd if you answered anything other than clam chowder we’re disowning you.
And none of that watery red shit either!
@jbartus I did pick the clam chowdha Never Manhattan - that shit is nasty! But split pea soup and French onion is good too.
@mfladd split pea soup on a rainy day… mmm-MMM-mmmmmmm!
@mfladd What about Maryland crab soup?
@sammydog01 Why you cheeky monkey
While I enjoy a good Maryland crab soup (since I now live in MD), I will not endorse a tomato based Clam Chowdah. The New Yorker’s ruined it!

Chicken and Dumplings or Gnocci are my absolute favorites, but of the ones listed, Chicken noodle.
I guess I am a sucker for chicken in my soup.
potato leek
Escarole and beans. I use my grandma’s recipe. Sometimes I add a handful of penne for Pasta Fagioli.
Gumbo’s a close second, but it’s hard to get the good stuff where I live. Even making it myself, I’m just too far from the coast to get fresh seafood for any reasonable price.
@dannybeans My dad is allergic to crustaceans, so I grew up on Chicken and Andouille gumbo. It’s a great option with no pesky seafood needs.
@jachee BLASPHEMEEEEEEEE
Dude, shellfish allergies are a real & nasty thing.
He gets a pass.
Can’t believe I’m the first to mention Gumbo.
It’s really the best soup, objectively speaking.
@jachee I think we must have hit “Say it” more or less simultaneously.
I love me some gumbo, but it’s really hard to find any worth having in northern Indiana. I have family on the Gulf Coast, though, and I more or less live on the stuff when I go to visit them.
@dannybeans You are not too far from Heaven on Seven in Chicago - Great Gumbo (and get some cornbread to go with it)
@Boiler3k I wish. Chicago’s about five hours away.

Homemade clam chowder, son.
Bear Creek Cheddar Potato Soup with Cherry Wood Smoked Turkey (From my smoker). It’s quite good.
Recently started making a cheesy enchilada soup. It uses a whole block of sharp cheddar freshly grated and thickened with a good bit of corn flour. Super simple recipe, too.
Chicken vegetable soup with turkey sausage cooked in parchment rolls right in the soup. Basically, this recipe but I add more veggies and use a bit more liquid and keep it as a soup.
