I took a 17-year roller coaster ride inside the riotous world of food service, and along with all the ups and downs I learned that "everybody" loves soup. I searched for soup ideas online, in magazines and books, at other restaurants, from food brokers, relatives, friends, and on vacations. But these soups had to be relatively easy to prepare and the ingredients couldn't be hard to find or obscure. These are "BIG BATCH" soup recipes developed for a large gathering, a restaurant or lunch counter business, a firehouse, a benefit or fundraiser operation, a large family or a family reunion. Most of these recipes are uncomplicated and use basic cooking procedures with which you'll be familiar. There are no tricks, no fancy steps and stages, and they rarely require ingredients for which you'll need to go out and search. The soups are marked as meat soups (M), no meat soups or vegetarian (V), and fish and/or shellfish soups (F). There is a large variety of soups included in this collection, for example, rich and creamy vegetarian Yellow Velvet from yellow squash and corn, and thick but basic Portuguese Kale made with lentils and sausage. You'll find the subtle flavors of a West African Peanut Chicken Soup in this book, and it's very easy to make.

Recipes from the classic period of English cookery, approximately 1660 to 1890, as a handy compendium for the curious, saving them the need to own a complete shelf of antiquarian books. Soup was never intended as a stand-alone dish. At its first showing it was merely the broth from a stew: the meat served in one dish, the liquid in another - we are familiar with the idea from the French 'pot-au-feu' or 'bouillabaisse'. And the very word 'soup' referred to the 'sops' of bread put at the bottom of the dish to soak up and thicken the liquor. Eileen White has selected texts that explains the place of soup in our diet, and which offer recipes which can be tried today (and just a few that are better to read than to cook).Eileen White is an historian who has worked mainly in the fields of early English drama and the history of food.

Big Bend resident rancher Hallie Stillwell has added her voice and favorite chili recipe to her friend Frank X. Tolbert's classic book, "A Bowl of Red."
Written by the late Dallas newspaper columnist and author, "A Bowl of Red" is an entertaining history of the peppery cowboy cuisine. This new printing of the book is based on Tolbert's 1972 revised edition, in which he describes the founding of the World Championship Chili Cookoff, now held annually in the ghost town of Terlingua, Texas.
Hallie Stillwell was one of the three judges at the first Terlingua cookoff, held in 1967. "We were blindfolded to sample the chili," the ninety-six-year-old writer/rancher says in her foreword. She voted for one of the milder concoctions; another judge cast his vote for a hotter version. The third judge, who was mayor of Terlingua, sampled each pot but then pronounced his taste buds paralyzed and declared the contest a tie. There's been a "rematch" in Terlingua every November since then. "I have never failed to attend," Stillwell says.
Stillwell's recipe for lean venison chili is her favorite, one she prepared in large quantities for the hungry hands at the Stillwell Ranch in the Big Bend. This new printing of the classic also features an index to other recipes in the book, such as "Beto's prison chili" and chili verde con carne (green chili). The book also includes Tolbert's tales of searching out the best cooks of Southwestern specialties like rattlesnake "stew" and jalapeno corn bread.
