    How many of you like the season of the soups- where the whole house filled is with the exotic smell of simmering soups. Whether it is a Chicken Noodle Soup, Tortilla Soup or any kind of Cream Soup, I like them all.

    But the one soup that I like the most is the Red Pepper Pistachio Bisque soup. I still remember the first time I had this soup and it completely blew away my mind because of its taste and deliciousness. This creamy, paprika-laced red bell pepper bisque, along with a parsley-pistachio pistou for the topping; makes you the lavish combination.

    This is what makes the Red Pepper-Pistachio Bisque recipe so special; the heat of Thai chillies and the nutty Pistachio puree. A creamy, nutty vegetable soup to keep you going on your long hot summer day. Also, there are other recipes that you can have as starters, let’s check them out.

    1. Mushroom Bisque– This is one of my favorite soups of all time. It is so easy. The secret to this deep, rich soup is a long slow caramelization, the key to unlocking the mushroom’s magic. This is just pure essence of mushroom.

    2. Turkey Soup– This soup is a mixture of chicken pieces cooked (or boiled) with some ground herbs and spices. The soup is healthy and takes almost no time to make it.

    3. Roasted Poha Chivda– This south Indian plain Chivdas with a raw taste can be turned into a delight unexpected. The punch of Hing powder has the ability to burst your taste buds with an amazing taste.

    4. Dahi Palak Patta Chaat– Spinach leaves are coated in a batter and deep fried to make spinach fritters and then drizzled with smooth beaten yoghurt, chutneys, and masalas.
