    My 🇫🇷belle-mère always started dinner with what she called “La bonne soupe.” It was exactly what you just posted, perhaps a bit different depending upon what she had on hand.
    She had lived through the dreadful German occupation of France in Paris & said her love of turnips occurred because the Germans stole all of the potatoes, so the French people were left with turnips & rutabagas, which the Germans disliked. She was from Auvergne & knew how to make soup from anything available. It was amazingly delicious & I make soup like that to this day. In fact, it was how I got vegetables into my son when he was small because blended soups weren’t so obviously full of veggies.

    oh yes please for French onion soup. I love soup, Id have it most days in winter (and then salad for lunch) as its so versatile and adaptable. I cant imagine a soup without my beloved leeks. Generally I like things cut small, I dont like a super heated long dangler of a leek hanging down my chin :) the one currently in the pot has the usual base of leek, onion, carrot, celery, small potato, with smidgen of chilli and then it has cannellini beans, butternut pumpkin and finely chopped cavolo nero and parsley - it all depends on what I have available and often it gets served with a nice dollop of greek yoghurt. Chopped fennel bulb is also lovely as are most pulses. I could never get bored of a good vegetable soup

    I made the soup today on a typical rainy West Coast afternoon. I substituted a red cabbage for the Savoy cabbage because I had a partial head in the fridge and didn’t want to waste it. Delicious! And what a deep, rich colour it turned out to be. I feel healthier just looking at it! Thanks for sharing the recipe, Marie-Anne. ❤️🇨🇦😋

    Thanks for this. My wife Is from France. She grew up minutes outside of Nantes. I do all the cooking. I just made this soup and thought of you as I was peeling my carrots with my new ceramic peeler. What a difference that Is hard to imagine compared to a regular one. Highly recommend one for you and anyone else. They peel off just about half as much skin. Peace and truth beautiful people. From north of the 49th In Pumpy country.

    Yum can't wait to try this recipe. I made a pot of soup last Sunday or chicken stew with a sweet potato. that's the only potato I had in the house. As well as cabbage, fennel, onion, carrots, and a little broccoli florets. Slowly cook a few chicken parts to make broth first, then add vegetables. Skim the fat, if needed, and add a table spoon or so of olive oil or grape seed oil.
    Yess indeed, I love to see the French onion recipe. My sweetie loves French onion soup

Sometimes I blend it, sometimes I don't, but it's always good. Thanks for showing us how you do yours, and YES I'd love to see your take on French Onion soup, too!

    Here in the South, USA, we prepare vegetable soup by browning cubes of beef then add canned tomatoes, beef broth, carrots, onions, peas, corn, green beans, potatoes(at the last). I love herbs de Provence, salt and pepper. I also add a little bit of barley at the end. We love vegetable soup and I usually can 20-30 quarts a year. I am going to add some turnips and leeks next time. Thank you! ❤

    I also make a version of this soup, especially good in our cold Canadian winter (my hubby is from French background.) My son, a vegan, enjoys it when I drop off a mason jar of this soup! Especially good on a day when you want to give your digestive system a rest.

    Leeks, celery, some lentils, carrots, 1 small sweet potato, a medium potato, mixed herbs, 2 cloves crushed garlic, chicken stock. Salt & black pepper to taste. Add some flash fried slices of chorizo. I always clean as I go; my kitchen is minute so I have to keep it tidy. I cut it all into even chunks and leave it chunky, so its like veg stew, lovely served with a crust of bread and a bit of cheese grated on top. Yours looks delicious!

    So delicious looking. I grew up on a farm where we grew all our own vegetables, and our soups were always chunky. Anything creamed in a blender would have been heavenly, but we had no blender. Now I see every one creaming their soups, and it looks so good. And the nutrition cannot be beat! Am so hungry watching this video. And, oh yes, we add chunky style corn and often tomatoes. Thanks for sharing this recipe with special tips.

    To make a more robust, tasty and nutritious soup you can add a pigs trotter to the stock pot and simmer whist the veggies are sothening for about 1 hour , then remove it for another soup (freeze when cold) lots of gelatine is released into the soup which is very good for invalids and poorly patients.

    Bonjour Marie-Anne!! So nice to see your cooking channel again!! I make a lot of soups in my Ninja where I can brown the carrots, celery, onions, garlic etc before adding the stock. It gives a richer flavor. Sometimes I will put extra carrots, onions etc at the bottom of a roasting pan with a chicken or meat & add those to the soup also. I would love to see your onion soup recipe! Happy Holidays!!🎄💕🥂

    Bonjour Marie-Anne! I didn't know you had a cooking channel!! The soup looks delicious. I LOVE soups! They are so comforting, especially on a cold winter day. My favourite soups are vegetable lentil, and chicken vegetable. I always puree my soup, no matter what kind it is. I ladle some into a 4-cup glass measuring cup and blend with a stick blender, and then I eat it right out of the measuring cup! (Saves me having to wash another dish!!) It works perfectly since my husband prefers his chunky. I will definitely try making this soup. Thank you! ♥

    The soup looks delicious!!! I also like to add parsnips (I usually sauté them in a bit of olive oil first) to my vegetable, butternut squash and chicken soups sometimes. For health reasons I don’t often add salt, I find that celery seed (a jarred spice here in the states) gives a salty taste in many savory recipes. I love vegetables and they’re so healthy. Always have a serving of veggies with lunch!!!
    Merry Christmas Marianne!!!

    Well done 👏 I bought an electric soup maker a few years ago and it’s handy as it cooks and blends all together at the end. It’s also got the option of having it chunky which my husband prefers.I have never used cabbage or turnip in my soup but I must try that. I have not seen those small turnips. I usually sauté the onion in a little olive oil first on a little pan and I add some vegetable bullion powder to my water. Soup is great especially in winter time and some nice fresh bread. I have been to a cookery demonstration by a French chef who made the French onion soup. I personally wouldn’t make it as I’m not a lover of onions.

    Bonjour Marie-Anne,
    Soup is one of my favourite foods. It's so versatile. I have never thought to add cabbage to a blended soup, but I will now. All those vegetables are so delicious. I spent a summer in Belgium a long time ago and my host family always began their noon meal with a thick blended soup such as you've prepared.
    I would love to see you prepare a Leek Tart and French Onion Soup. I agree with you that you can't have a soup without onion! Thank you for sharing your home and kitchen "trucs" with all of us.
    Joyeux Noel to you and your family.
