Beef and Vegetable Soup with beef, potato and carrot — USA recipe

🇺🇸USAAdvanced

Soups

Beef and Vegetable Soup

Cheap, tough beef cuts braised low and slow in broth with root vegetables until the meat is tender enough to break with a spoon. The collagen from those cuts dissolves into the broth over time and makes it thick and glossy. Expensive steaks make thin, bland soup.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup with broccoli, sharp cheddar cheese and carrot — USA recipe

Soups

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

The American diner classic: broccoli and carrot simmered in a milk-and-stock base thickened with a butter roux, then finished off the heat with sharp cheddar melted in a handful at a time. Creamy, comforting, and better than the bread-bowl version at the chain that made it famous — as long as you keep the cheese from splitting.

Bún Bò Huế (Spicy Vietnamese Beef and Lemongrass Noodle Soup) with beef shank, lemongrass and mắm ruốc huế — Vietnam recipe

Soups

Bún Bò Huế (Spicy Vietnamese Beef and Lemongrass Noodle Soup)

Bún bò Huế is a fiery red Vietnamese noodle soup from the central city of Huế, the former imperial capital. The broth is built on a long simmer of beef shank, pork ribs, beef bones, lemongrass, charred aromatics, and pineapple, then finished with mắm ruốc (Huế-style fermented shrimp paste) and a separate annatto-lemongrass sate sauce that gives the soup its signature crimson colour and heat. Thick round rice noodles, sliced beef shank, and herbs (Thai basil, Vietnamese coriander, mung bean sprouts, banana blossom) finish the bowl. Compared to phở, bún bò Huế is bolder, spicier, and more aromatic — phở's louder cousin from central Vietnam. Active work 30 minutes, simmer 3.5 hours. Serves 8 generous bowls.

Canh Chua (Vietnamese Sour Soup) with catfish steaks or firm white fish, tamarind concentrate and pineapple — Vietnam recipe

🇻🇳VietnamAdvanced

Soups

Canh Chua (Vietnamese Sour Soup)

A southern Vietnamese sour soup from the Mekong Delta: a tamarind-based broth balanced with pineapple sweetness and fish sauce umami, filled with fish steaks or shrimp, tomatoes, okra, and bean sprouts, finished with crispy fried garlic and a crown of fresh herbs. The soup's defining quality is the precise calibration of four tastes — sour (tamarind), sweet (pineapple), salty (fish sauce), and savory (the fish) — in a broth that is light but deeply flavoured. Catfish is traditional; salmon, snapper, or tilapia all work.
