After returning from a trip to Macedonia, Karine & Jeff created Pistou Soup, an emblematic dish that captures the essence of warm Provencal evenings. As part of our trilogy of chunky vegetable soups, which also includes Lentil and Kale Minestrone and Sweet Potato and Kidney Bean Minestrone, it epitomizes the best of rich, comforting summer cooking. As the summer sun begins to wane and the air grows cooler, our Pistou soup offers warmth and comfort. This dish is a hymn to well-being, a gustatory caress that soothes the spirit and nourishes the body. Packed with protein-rich white beans from the South West of France and a medley of vegetables - crunchy carrots, melting potatoes, juicy courgettes, sweet turnips, fresh green beans, aromatic leeks, and sun-kissed tomatoes - it defines a balanced, complete meal. Considered one of our 'meal soups', Karine & Jeff's Pistou Soup not only stands alone but also pairs perfectly with a slice of bread rubbed with garlic. For a touch of freshness, add a leaf of raw parsley, which blends harmoniously with the basil already incorporated. A final drizzle of olive oil transports you to the heart of Provence. Tomato or beetroot juice makes the perfect accompaniment to this dish.
