About this deal

What’s it about?“Anyone can make a good soup”, says Sophie Grigson, editor of this fail-safe, comprehensive guide to soup, and she’s not wrong. The Soup Book shows that using whatever ingredients you have at home and whatever the season, really anyone can put together a tasty, nourishing bowlful.

For example, the Morphy Richards soup maker is much cheaper and this shows on the blender function. In the USA they would call our soup makers a hot and cold blender.
