Sunday Soup (Chronicle, 2008), a new cookbook by Betty Rosbottom, presents 60 soup recipes organized by season. A quick glance has me ready to dive into Avocado Soup with Fresh Tomato Salsa, Chilled Carrot Soup with Cumin and Lime, and Zucchini Vichyssoise, all of which she recommends for summer.
So why the name, Sunday Soup? “Soup makes a fine meal anytime, but Sunday is when many of us are home with family and friends and have a few extra hours to cook,” says Rosbottom.
