Just Soup (& sandwiches & salads) / Solo Sopa

Chilled potato-leek soup, or Vichyssoise, is an excellent budget dish to have up one's sleeve. At its most basic, the soup's humble ingredients combine to form a silky, luxurious meal far greater than the sum of its parts. The velvety green soup in River Cottage Veg contains not only the potatoes and leeks, but also a couple of cucumbers and heads of butter lettuce as well. The greenery adds a refreshing touch and brilliant color to the soup, and the dollop of creme fraiche at the end is the perfect tangy-rich note to finish.

Happy National Homemade Soup Day! It would be cause for celebration if it wasn't for the fact that... I'm not the biggest fan of most soups. Lucky for me, I can take advantage of a linguistic oddity: the Italian word "zuppa" is always translated as "soup," but the truth is that a zuppa is something a little bit different. Even if you're a soup skeptic like me, you might want to check out these zuppe that Eva's cooking today.
