McNair's Soups Stoop to Conquer

If I had to have only one cookbook (perish the thought!), it would be this one. I LOVE soup, and James McNair's recipes are absolutely wonderful and work every time. Don't be fooled by the sumptuous photos of these soups into thinking you have to have a degree from a culinary institute to pull them off. Most of the recipes are very easy to make, especially since McNair finds canned stock as acceptable as homemade stock. In addition, substitutions work very well. I frequently substitute the easier-to-get spinach for sorrel in the potato-leek-sorrel soup recipe. Buy this book today and be prepared for lavish praise from all your dinner guests on the wonderful soups you serve.
