Soups

You can’t go wrong with soup. If you’re pushed for time or just want to do something on the cheap, you can happily feed your family or a group of friends with one big pot and a loaf of bread. Between the two cafés we can sell up to 60 litres of it a day, winter and summer. My soup-making has taken on a new lease of life at Cambo, where the soup menu is often influenced by the vegetables that are in season. These are the recipes for some of our favourites, with some new ones included too. You can go a long way with a stick blender, some vegetables and a load of fresh herbs – that’s all you really need to know.
