Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Comforting soup with generous amounts of chicken and vegetables. Quite delicious with the fresh herbs added at the end.

    I can understand why people find this recipe bland as it's cautious with the salt. If you salt to taste as you cook, it's delicious.

    I enjoyed this, but it wasn't necessarily worth the effort. If I make it again, I think I would omit the orzo, as the soup generally needed more flavor.

    A very nice soup with lots of vegetables, which I like. Don't skip the fresh herbs at the end, as they are essential for the best flavor.

    Perfect winter lunch - warming soup packed full of chicken, noodles and vegetables. We liked the flavour of the herbs and spices in this one. Keep an eye on this when reheating for a second day as I found that the ingredients overcooked and flavour wasn't as fresh (much nicer on day 1).
