On Thursday, I made some Carrot and Coriander soup. I overdid it with the ground coriander as there was a lot of it after I had finished grinding the seeds.

It made my eyeballs sweat!

I'll do my best Tilly, I just do it - serves about 4 and I freeze any unused helpings. Cut heavy green bits and roots off leeks (2 large or 3 small), remove outer layer, wash any grit out, cut lengthways, turn onto cut surface and cut lengthways again, then chop across into slices about half an inch wide. Peel spuds and cut into smallish pieces - about 12 oz., but it's...

Chowder and broth are 'types' of soup as estate and sports are 'types' of cars.
To me a broth is flavoured water with ingredients added ( my fav soup is Chinese noodle soup)

A soup is blended.
In my limited experience chowder is nice and high in calories. Broth is thinner, more lumpy veg & meat is light liquid, which is pleasant but doesn't keep you feeling full for as long as some.

Sweaty eyeballs ? You aren't supposed to rub coriander into them !
The French distinguish between 'potage' and 'soupe'. I think that one has bits in it and the other doesn't.

I didn't, OG. It must have been the fumes!
Thanks guillie - it'll be on the menu shortly. Sooner rather than later, I think, because the weather has broken.
I am making soup shortly in my soupmaker,Potato,cheese and herb soup.
Slinky - a soup maker - surely a large pot suffices.
not for me jennyjoan,owing to health problems.
Question Author
What are the advantages of a soup maker, slinky? I have looked at them but can't decide if I want one or not.

Just been to fetch a jar from the cupboard, pastafreak. This one is made by BART infusions (90g) and is called Coriander Paste, it is made of chopped coriander leaves, sunflower oil and water (mainly). It reads: 1 tsp = 1 tsp of chopped, fresh coriander (not sure that's right, I think it equals a bit more). This brand came with my Ocado order, so is probably Waitrose, but I've also bought the same from Tesco

Ah haaah! I used to buy something like that...ages ago. But I've not seen it in ...years. I'm sure it was Bart,also.
