LETTUCE SOUP
Creamy Lettuce Soup is a delicious, healthy recipe that uses 1 head of lettuce. Combined with heavy cream, chicken broth and spices, this is a great way to add lettuce to your diet! I love using Bibb lettuce in this recipe but Romaine and Iceberg work good too! Who knew cooked lettuce could taste so yummy for dinner - even kids love it!

CREAM OF LETTUCE SOUP
This is such a delicious soup! It has a lovely consistency and loved by all who I have served it to. This is a real winner! People who have never had it before can't seem to guess whats in it!! Where this recipe calls for Chicken Stock, I use Campbell's Real Stock, and add water. It's so much easier than having to make your own! I usually use 1/2 Chicken and 1/2 Vegetable Stock. If making in advance leave out the beaten egg yolks and scalded cream and add just before re-heating and serving. For the purpose of freezing -leave the beaten egg yolks and scalded cream out until thawed and re-heated.

Steps:
- Garnish: 2 1/2 ounces goat cheese, sliced
- In a medium pot warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until tender and starting to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the potatoes and the stock. Bring the stock to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat and continue to simmer, covered, until the potatoes are almost tender, about 20 minutes. Add the arugula and lettuce to the pot and continue simmering, uncovered until the greens are tender, another 2 to 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the potatoes and greens to a blender. Pour in enough of the stock to cover the vegetables. Add the cream, salt, and pepper.
- *Blend the ingredients together until smooth. Be careful to blend slowly at first with a kitchen towel held tight to the top of the blender lid. Blending hot ingredients can cause the lid to blow off. Pour the blended soup back into the pot with the remaining stock. Stir to combine. Cover and keep warm.
- Pour the soup into 4 serving bowls. Top each soup with 1/2-ounce sliced goat cheese. Serve immediately.
- * When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.
LETTUCE SOUP
Steps:
- Heat olive oil over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. When hot add the onions and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the parsley, chives, tarragon and lettuce and stir until the lettuce is completely wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes. When ready to serve, process the soup, in batches, taking care since the soup is hot, then return to a clean saucepan. Stir in the heavy cream or evaporated milk and the salt and pepper and simmer for another 5 minutes, or until heated through. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, and serve immediately, garnished with fresh herbs and chive blossoms, if desired.
LETTUCE SOUP
An easy Lettuce Soup recipe. This soup is a great way to use lettuce's outer leaves and ribs, which usually go to waste. Any kind of potato and any salad greens, including lettuce, arugula, spinach, and watercress, will work fine.

CREAM OF LETTUCE SOUP
Cheddar-Oat Griddle Biscuits (page 153) provide a nice contrast to the mild flavor of this pleasant summer soup. Or try it with Garlic Croutons (page 159), if you'd prefer a little crunch.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onions and garlic and sauté over medium-low heat until the onions are lightly browned.
- Add the water with bouillon cube and 8 cups of the lettuce, reserving the rest. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Stir in the herbs and remove from the heat.
- With a slotted spoon, transfer the solid ingredients to a food processor along with the tofu, and puree, in batches, if necessary, until smooth. Or add the tofu to the soup pot, insert an immersion blender, and puree until smooth.
- Return to the soup pot or to a serving container. Stir in enough rice milk to give the soup a slightly thick consistency. Season with lemon juice, salt, and pepper. This soup needs a good amount of each to bring up the flavor, so be generous yet judicious.
- Cut the reserved lettuce into fine shreds and stir in. Allow to cool to room temperature. Serve at room temperature or chill the soup in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving. Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.

Steps:
- For the stock cover the bones with 12 cups of water and bring to a boil. Add the seasonings and boil gently for three hours, then drain. It will yield about eight cups. If necessary, reduce further, to get the eight cups, or add water enough to attain the proper amount.
- For the soup, heat the butter in a stockpot. When hot, add the onions and leeks and saute for two minutes. Add the stock, potatoes and salt. Bring to a boil and boil gently, partially covered, for 45 minutes. Strain, reserving the liquid, and process the solids in a food processor until very smooth. Combine with the reserved liquid. (Note: If the liquids and solids are processed together, the mixture tends to be too foamy.)
- For the garnish, separate the lettuce into leaves and wash them thoroughly. Pile the leaves together and cut into thin strips (chiffonnade). Melt the butter in a stainless-steel saucepan and add the lettuce. Cook for one to two minutes, until wilted.
- Combine the garnish with the soup at serving time. Serve hot or cold.
