Neeps and Tatties Soup
We had a wonderful soup yesterday - another success from Love Soup by Anna Thomas. This was Neeps and Tatties Soup - those of you from Scotland will get the reference - it stands for turnips and potatoes. This is a leek/potato/turnip soup. We did the "rustic" version, that isn't pureed and doesn't have cream, but adds chopped parsley and dill, dill seed, crumbled feta cheese and some olive oil. It was outstanding - fresh and light but satisfying. The combination of flavors made all the difference. It was great on a cold winter day!

I only learned the reference when I moved to Scotland all those years ago.
Kate, this soup looks really good and very seasonal may I add. I would make just like you, rustic.
mangocheeks - the cream version looked good too, but this version really appealed to us - the dill seed really made a difference, I think.
