A delicious, updated version of the Japanese salad dressing you find in sushi restaurants. Good over a bowl of anything from lettuce to steamed veggies to soba noodles and tofu.
My (and my mom's) version of the classic French Onion Soup. Using Julia's recipe as a base, this uses butter and bacon fat to saute, gets a splash of cognac and a cup of wine along with the rich, flavourful beef stock. My stepbrother (who requested it in the first place) ate two huge bowls!

A comforting bowl of tomato soup is oomphed up with roasted garlic, split peas, potato and a handful of Manchego cheese. Smoked spicy paprika and a hint of rosemary bring life to the party!

A bowl of comfort on a cold winter's day, this roasted tomato soup tastes like the best spaghetti sauce and goes down smooth. The secret? No cream - Greek yoghurt is pureed in for body and a welcome bit of tang. For best results, use full fat yoghurt - it's less likely to curdle.
