What is your favorite type of Soup?

[darthbudge]

I was sitting here enjoying a bowl of New England style Clam Chowder, which is by far my favorite type of soup, and I got to wondering what other peoples favorite types of soup. So what is it?

For me, Clam Chowder is my favorite, but good Seafood Gumbo is a very close second.

Cool topic, considering the weather (well, here in CA)

I like to make soups so, if I may pick more than one...

1. French Onion soup (with lots of onions simmered in red wine and beef stock) with crusty french bread and melted swiss (gruyere) on top.

2. Gourmet Cream of Brocolli.. which is brocolli, a potato, an onion sweated in some butter and blended with chicken stock and a splash of heavy cream added at the end.

but actually my favorite, which I've never made, is currently Fresh Choices (don't laugh) Pho Noodle Bowl. Bean sprouts, cilantro jalepenos, lime juice, rooster sauce and delicious noodles in a light chicken broth. I like their version better than the authentic versions I've had in mom and pop shops.

I also love Clam Chowder... mmmm...

Beer Cheese Soup!

[dastly75]

Minestrone, Seaweed Soup(from that Chinese place...), Hot&Sour soup, Creamy Tomato soup w/ Grilled Cheese, Miso Soup. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

[Wombat]

French Onion, Matzoh Ball Soup and my Mother's Chicken Noodle soup

[Number83]

3) Baked Potato, Steak and Cheese
2) Cream of Chicken
1) My home made Chicken and Stars.

[ZForce]

I keep a cupboard full of Campell's Chunky Pot Roast, Sirloin Burger and Cheesy Steak and Potato Soup on hand at all times

[lordwow]

New England Clam Chowder of course.

[Blackout]

Cream of Potato FTMFW.

[Koggit]

Chili. Chili is the best soup.

[AceSXE]

homemade brunswick stew...........not really a soup since its a stew but chowders are in so stew is to :D

if chili is a soup im in for that as well

[Koggit]

If you can't potentially eat it with a fork, it's not a meal.

[GF_Eric]

Clam chowder, potato soup, vegetarian vegetable, chicken noodle. All homemade, of course.

[Ikohn4ever]

New England Clam Chowder, Tomato soup w/ Grilled Cheese Sandwich, and whatever soup I feel like making from scratch

[plasticbathmonki]

Baked Potato from Chili's. That stuff is a heart attack in a bowl. :)

[detectiveconan16]

Asian soups mostly, especially the ones they serve at lunch at chinese restaurants. Since they're of lighter texture, actually healthy, and are less likely to cause a heart attack.

[adriley313]

My fav is Mushroom soup. Love it with big chucks of mushroom. Its really good with oyster crackers.

Next best are both clam chowders and cheesy loaded baked potato.
also like sweet and sour with tofu.

[tehweezner]

Chili. Chili is the best soup.

If chili counts as soup, then definitely chili. If not I'll just go with vegetable.

[senorwoohoo]

A good chicken noodle soup is up there for me. The same goes for beef stew and French onion.

[Anexanhume]

Chili. Chili is the best soup.

This. There is liquid involved, and it's served in a bowl. It's soup, it's good, chili wins.

[AnotherStereotype]

Lentil soup, pasta e $$$ioli, and minestrone top my list of favorite soups.

[VioletArrows]

Seafood Newburg made with crab, shrimp, scallops, and clams, gumbo (or is that a stew?), and egg drop.

[fart_bubble]

my homemade chicken noodle or my homemade chicken & dumplings

[crystalklear64]

Top Ramen

[Sofa King Kool]

New England Clam Chowder all the way.

[ratzombie]

It's a tie between Clam Chowder and Broccoli and Cheddar. The latter wins if it's in a bread bowl.

[Thomas96]

shrimp flavored oodle noodles.. and the beef soup from progresso

[ZenTrickster]

Let's go to Ollie the weather man for his answer. Ollie?

CHUNKY!

Thanks Ollie.

[lokizz]

im more of a beef stew person myself but if i have to choose a soup itd be minestrone. that shit is awesome puts every other soup to shame. i like vegetable soup too as long as i have crackers to go with it.

[crunchb3rry]

Cream of washroom.

[Z_meista]

chicken noodle soup
cream of chicken

[MisterModest]

This. There is liquid involved, and it's served in a bowl. It's soup, it's good, chili wins.
By that logic, cereal is also soup.

1. A liquid food prepared from meat, fish, or vegetable stock combined with various other ingredients and often containing solid pieces.

[GuilewasNK]

Plain chicken noodle soup does me right.

[The Crotch]

My mom's minestrone, though I had some great caribou-related soups this summer that challenged for the title.This. There is liquid involved, and it's served in a bowl. It's soup, it's good, chili wins.Dammit, Modest, why'd you have to get here before me?

[humidore]

Lentil, all the way.

[emg28]

Chicken Noodle Soup from Norm's in Socal. :drool:

Clam Chowder is a close second.

When I saw the thread title I instantly thought, "New England Clam Chowder!!!" But I wasn't going to post it cause I thought everyone hated it. Awesome that the first post agrees!

It is the best! Especially with crackers!!

Chili is a close second, but usually ends up with me feeling like crap. It's the best with a ton of graded cheese on top, chopped onions and sour cream...

Sweet god I want some.

[Mike23]

Italian wedding soup, by far.

[jarvis307]

clam chowder, minestrone, chicken noodle, hot and sour soup, wonton soup, chicken congee, pork and salted egg congee, and pho. not sure if the last three count.

[ValkyrieVF-1S]

Can't go wrong with pho~

[Hostile]

If Chili counts, that's my choice. If Chili does not count, I can't think of anything other than New England Clam Chowder. I don't have the luxury of tasting all kinds of Western soups because of my Chinese heritage but I love the two mentioned.

[davo1224]

This thread makes me want to throw up. What's wrong with something simple like chicken and stars?

[GuilewasNK]

Chili IS NOT soup.

If you can put it on a hot dog, it's pretty obvious it isn't soup.

[VioletArrows]

Okay, I just made chicken noodle soup from scratch. It's back on my top five. Too used to canned crap and forgot what it's supposed to taste like.

Queer! ;)

LOL ... He's got a good point. LOL...

[MisterModest]

Dammit, Modest, why'd you have to get here before me?
I always come first.

[Over easy]

Cream of mushroom, or most of the cream soups.

Chinese soup too, but not the cheap ones from the restaurants.

[BlueWingX]

[jaykrue]

Turtle Soup. But what do I know? I'm just a ninja with blades on my forearms & wrists with a friend who's a brain inside a cybernetic body.

[greydemise]
