Bechamel by Jeremy Peters

The basic technique is called a roux and it's a suspension of starch in a fat matrix. The reason this works is that it allows the starch to be evenly distributed without clumping. Roux also cooks the starch prior to introducing the liquid, which means you won't have to boil the liquid nearly as long in order to remove the raw taste.

Mimi's Bacon Cheeseburger and Fries Soup by Penny Hawkins

This is a soup I came up with for my grandkids and it's based on an American fast food favorite...bacon cheeseburgers with fries! I know it sounds off-the-wall, but the flavors we all love in this classic combination translate surprisingly well into a soup too. Besides, anything with bacon in it can't be all bad (can I get an "amen")?…

Leek Cream of Potato Soup by Dr. Clairborne

A great winter addition, this leek potato soup combines the elements of immune supporting spices such as garlic, thyme, dillweed, and basil with a creamy delicious taste. Because this recipe is vegan, its great for asthmatics or those whose condition may be worsened by mucous producing dairy products.

Cheddar Potato Soup by Chef Smith

Great way to use up those leftover mashed potatoes. If you don't have any you can always use the instant taters...I just like the homemade ones that have a few chunks left in them....
