Please help. I need an idea for soups.?

Question

Hi Everybody! I am in culinary arts school and I need to create (invent) an soup of my own. I don't need a recipe, just crazy ideas for soups that no one has ever thought of! Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Make your own version of Ratatouille. Which is eggplant peppers, tomatoes, zucchini,onions all cooked down to make a veg. soup cold or hot. There are so many great vegetables to work with, try a variation.

Answer 2

An incredibly flavorful crystal clear (as in, not cloudy) broth

Something you can puree and top w/ sour cream; maybe pumpkin or butternut squash?

a dessert soup, made w/ cream or H&H or yogurt and fresh fruit (peaches, raspberries, blueberries, watermelon, honeydew, anything juicy)

think of a favorite dish, and convert it to a soup. Like a loaded baked potato became Potato Soup and is garnished w/ bacon, cheese, chives, and sour cream. So think of another calssic dish, likeTurkey Tetrazini, or Corned Beef & Cabbage, BLT or Reuben Sandwich, or Hot Tamles w/ Chili & Cheese. Hope this makes sense.

Answer 3

What about sweet potatoes? There are potato soups but I never heard of a sweet potato soup. The question would be whether to make it sweet or savory? Somehow making a soup that reflects the flavors of sweet potato casserole would be sweet but I do know that sweet potatoes are really good with onion soup mix on them....mmmm. A french onion sweet potato soup? Savory seems like it would be the best but if a good sweet version with marshmellows melted on top like they do the cheese on a french onion soup...

Did I gross you out? I must be in the mood for sweet potatoes!!! Good luck!

Answer 4

try a cold soup. One with icecream blended to soup consistency

you can also try making a sweet soup. Since its a brand new recipe, you can market it well.. saying its a "new concept in culinary excellence"

Answer 5

Some kind a of chocolate soup for a dessert? OR a coconut/banana/sweetened condensed milk thing, heated with whipped cream on top. Good Luck

Answer 6

Well i cant stand spinach much but my dad occasionally makes this soup with:

Spinach

Chunks of Pumpkin

Onion

Pepper

Seasonings

Salt Beef of Pigtail

Pasta noodles

Carrots

Potatoes

And it is soooo Delicious!

Maybe you could try that!

Answer 7

How about turning a classic entree into a soup? Like, say, fish & chip soup. Or maybe a BLT (or even better, BLTA) soup?

Answer 9

i love making new recipes! (fyi, im not some person who knows nothing about cullinary skills giving you advice!)
i've never tried this, but an idea could be a chicken soup with pureed bananas, walnuts, egg noodles, rosemary, & lemon peper.
another idea might be a soup based on chicken mole, with a bittersweet chocolate/garlic/chili powder/cumin/cinnamon/tomatoe/chicken broth stock with chicken, chipotle & bell peppers, diced tomatoes, & peanuts garnished with toasted pumpkin seeds.
hope that helped!

Answer 10

Well my family loves bacon and tomatos, so I make a tomato soup with freshly cooked bacon with cheese spread on the top, it is really good.

Good luck I hope you get some great ideas.
