Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:To Brother Victor-Antoine, soup making is a spiritual exercise in which you consider food, health, and the meaning of creation. Twelve Months of Monastery Soups harks back to a simpler era, when people were in tune with seasonal harvests and the natural flavors of fresh, locally grown ingredients. Presented in order of growing seasons, Brother Victor-Antoine's soups offer a succulent range of flavors — refreshing Watercress Soup for spring; Gazpacho made with ripe tomatoes for summer; Pumpkin Soup, savory for autumn; and Saint Nicholas Soup, made with turnips, carrots, potatoes, and cabbage, for winter holidays. In keeping with the monastic emphasis on frugality, the recipes, 75 percent of which are vegetarian, call for easy-to-find, affordable ingredients and include at least one recipe for every vegetable native to North America. From simple clear broths to veloutes, consommes, and thick, hearty soups, Twelve Months of Monastery Soups will appeal to every palate. Synopsis:Now in paperback, the first and only monastery cookbook on soups showcases 175 simple, soul-satisfying recipes for a year-round celebration of the art of soup making. Presented in order of growing seasons, Brother Victor-Antoine's recipes offer a succulent range of flavors. 131 woodcuts. Synopsis:"Of soup and love, the first is best."
