Cream of Asparagus Soup

For this simple first dish, the time it takes to be done does not exceed twenty minutes. Besides, there is the relevant expression: "Faster than to cook asparagus". Yet, though fast, it's delicious. It escapes from our usual Kitchen Soups and is splendidly fragrant.
Each ingredient is distinguished by its flavor and taste. When the first spoon arrives in our mouth and the palate begins to detect the aromas, it will record the soft and fine taste of asparagus (favorite vegetable), the intensity of the roasted garlic, the unique aroma of wild fennel, the unparalleled flavor of Parmesan and the set ends up being an incredible «dance» of tasteful combination.
Surely it surprises us that this little white soup can have such an exciting flavor.
It is accompanied by a glass of rosé wine.
Yours!

Yellow Split Pea with Fennel

The delicious fava comes from the Split peas. They are an agricultural or culinary preparation consisting of the dried, peeled and split seeds of Pisum sativum but quite sidelined compared with other legumes of Greek Kitchen.
In a proverbial expressions find and this relative to beans: When something suspicious happens in a case, we say that "fava has a pit". This one does not, except in the habit of adding a little olive oil in the center by opening a small puddle.
You boil it plain with a little onion and aromatic fennel and serve mashed, lukewarm or cold, garnished with olive oil, olives, dry onion and sprinkled with chopped dill. Combined with tasty onion pies.

Beef Vegetable Soup

Those who have reservations about the soups in general and in particular for the winter, hot consommé, and hearty, I would like to suggest this one. Do make and enjoy it without reservations. It's so tasty, without exaggeration, surely you will love it, and your loved ones or who, anyway, you are responsible to care for their diet …
We choose meat from good quality beef and then many different vegetables, each of which will contribute with its taste and composition to the entire dish. An important aspect in the whole process -though little time consuming- is to sauté all individual ingredients before boil. It gives a taste you will not forget.
Yours!

Pumpkin Soup

Hearty and delicious Pumpkin Soup, made from a large slice of a huge pumpkin, which was cut, and some pieces arrived in my Kitchen. A Pumpkin Soup was made, for the cold days and evenings of winter:

• When we need comforting food, with warm tones and textures.
• When we need a soup detoxifying, from the gustatory binge, and…
• When there are pumpkins in the grocery shop!

Then enjoy it with large, overflowing tablespoons that burn the palate and tongue and warm our insides.
An orange, velvety, and thick Pumpkin Soup, with intensity in taste and in the presence of crunching, bread chunks (croutons), crisp bacon, and cheddar flakes for extra flavor. All garnish makes a very rich flavor. Thyme is the perfect fragrance eliminating the pumpkin aftertaste.
It comes with a red dry wine for the apotheosis of simplicity, taste, and enjoyment.
Be assured that you will repeat very soon, pumpkins are undefeated…
Yours!

French Onion Soup

French Onion soup (Soupe à l'oignon). An eminently French dish -dish of the poor- at times onions were plentiful and easy to obtain for the poor rural population. A dish quite popular since Roman times.
The modern version of this soup is made with caramelized onions, plenty of broth and toasted croutons with melted delicious gruyere cheese on them!
It is eaten hot, with cheese to melt into threads, and the toasted bread dipped in soup.
