SOUP SEASON PART TWO---LOCAL RECIPES FROM CROTON'S COOKS

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

A recent post on locally available soups from Croton's business community (see it here), prompted several requests for tried and true homemade recipes from our local village "chefs". Your wish is our command! Click on the photos and links!

FIRST UP, CREAMY ARTICHOKE SOUP--whether you choose your bread on the side or in the middle of your soup, this one is an absolute must on a cold winter day. Drizzle with a splash of your very best olive oil and lots of cracked black pepper.  Here's the recipe we used--AND CANNED ARTICHOKES--doesn't get any easier than that from HOW SWEET EATS; GO TO https://www.howsweeteats.com/2019/02/artichoke-soup/

NEXT UP--FROM THE FLOATING KITCHEN---and Everything Croton Elve Lisa's favorite the last few years---CREAMY SWEET POTATO, PEAR AND LEEK SOUP WITH SPICEY CROUTONS.....we jumped ours up with a garnish of carmelized leeks sliced super thin but that's totally optional. You'll find the recipe here.

Another tried and true soup from local Carolyn: Lebanese Vegetable Soup

YES....we have indeed mentioned LADY CAROLYN'S LEBANESE VEGETABLE SOUP before---but it is so darned good, it's worth a repeat....click on the recipe card.

And Rosa swears by THIS CREAMY CAULIFLOWER SOUP RECIPE FROM GOYA; not only tasty but economical too. To find the recipe, click here.
