Which cosy British soup would you turn to on a proper miserable rainy day?
When the weather turns grey and the wind cuts through your coat, a bowl of soup can feel like a hug in a mug. Rank these British classics from the one you'd reach for first to the one you'd leave until last.
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
Leek and Potato
Silky, comforting and endlessly reliable, this humble pairing has warmed British kitchens for generations. Best served with a crusty bread roll and a generous knob of butter.
B
Cream of Tomato
Whether homemade or straight from a certain iconic red-and-white tin, it's the taste of childhood sick days and rainy Sunday lunches. Cheese toastie on the side is practically the law.
C
Scotch Broth
Packed with lamb, barley and root veg, this thick and warming bowl practically counts as a full meal. Ideal fuel after a long winter walk.
D
Cullen Skink
A rich, creamy soup of smoked haddock, potatoes and onions from the north-east coast of Scotland. Underrated by many, adored by those in the know.
E
Mulligatawny
A spiced, curry-tinged soup born of British-Indian culinary history, warming in an entirely different way. Perfect when you want comfort with a bit more backbone.
