About this book: A bowl of piping hot soup warms not only the stomach, but also the heart. For the culinary expert Lisa Fong, making soups is just a breeze. From the long-boiled and double-steamed for hours, to the quick-boiled in minutes. Lisa always did soups with passion and impeccable skills. In this cookbook, she included 50 home-style hearty soups, so that you'd find a yummy soup to your liking even when you're working late; feeling sick; or trying to lose weight. Have been lived in Shanghai, Lisa also put in a few Shanghainese specialty soups, some of which could be hard to find in restaurants these days. On top of that, every recipe comes with a Q&A section between Lisa and her domestic helper Ah Ling on special cooking tips. From now on, having a bowl of comfort soup at home is no longer a luxury.
