Creole Crab-Meat Soup

Lobster Chowder
Dick Bridges, a Maine lobsterman, gave this recipe to The Times in 2007, and we've adapted it here. It's a stew that's both humble and luxurious, making it the perfect dish to serve for a late-fall or winter dinner party.

Arroz Caldo With Collards and Soy-Cured Egg Yolks
The Filipino rice porridge called lugaw started out as a simple equation of rice, water and salt, until the conquistadors arrived in the 16th century and demanded more sumptuous dishes. Add tripe and innards to lugaw, and it becomes goto; with chicken and saffron, it is arroz caldo. It’s looser and soupier than Chinese congee, cooked until you can’t see individual grains. I put in collard greens to make it a balanced meal and use wings because of the high bone-to-meat ratio and the jiggly skin. (Keeping the bones in will give the broth more flavor.) The soy sauce-cured yolks are probably best at the two-hour mark — they get firmer and saltier the longer they cure, so follow your taste.

Roasted Potato And Cabbage Soup

Ice-Cold Schav
Nothing revives and refreshes in a heat wave like this ice-cold schav, made with the exceptionally tart herb sorrel. The soup is seasoned at each stage: You salt the sweating shallots, the cooking potatoes, again when you add the sorrel and finally again when all is combined, which seems like a lot of salt. But once the mixture is chilled, the flavors are masked and dulled so it will taste just right. Using the stems of herbs is a habit I've formed in general, but in the case of sorrel I wish it were an herb all on its own — that you could just buy sorrel stems. I've seen Instagrammable versions of the soup with the egg cut into pristine wedges and bright green watercress substituted for drab muddy sorrel, but I think the way to go here is without vanity: Scatter well-chopped hard-boiled egg liberally over the drab soup, and follow with the minced stems, also liberally.

Cold Melon Soup With Tarragon and Dry Sherry

Michel-Michel Shabu-Shabu
What Americans say they want to eat (light) and what they actually consume (rich) make life difficult for most chefs. Few of them have figured out how to succeed with the light without the rich. Not the chef Michel Richard. After working for 15 years in this country as a pastry chef, Mr. Richard said he has determined what people really want. Light, yes, but with strong taste."

Fragrant Thai-Style Clams in Coconut Broth
The classic, highly aromatic Thai seasoning for seafood includes lemongrass, galangal, lime leaf, hot pepper and coconut milk. Spicy and refreshing, the bright-tasting broth is a mix of sweet, salty, sour and herbaceous. You may substitute mussels or prawns for the clams.

Cold spinach soup

Creamy Leek and Parsnip Soup
This soup has a kind of quiet charm. Whizzed until creamy in a blender, it is a happy marriage of silky leeks and earthy parsnips — think leek and potato soup, but with more depth of character. It’s very good made with water instead of broth; sautéing the leeks and parsnips very slowly, to concentrate flavor before adding liquid, is the key to success.

Spinach and Tofu Wontons in Broth
You can find wonton wrappers in most supermarkets. Sometimes they’re in the produce section in the cooler with the tofu. Use either round or square wrappers for these; make them ahead if it’s more convenient and freeze.

Mushroom and Barley Soup
To get the Yom Kippur eve meal on the table in time, my mother began cooking early in the day, preparing her thick and velvety barley soup perfumed with flecks of dried Polish mushrooms and root vegetables such as parsnips and petrouchka. To this she added boiled potatoes, even though potato pancakes would accompany the slowly braised, well-garlicked pot roast, and as a side dish she served cabbage rolls stuffed with beef and rice — her idea of a vegetable. Stewed fruit and honey cake were dessert, usually eaten quickly as time inevitably ran out.
