Two New Recipes for Club Members from Gill Meller

Chard, Leek and White Bean SoupCelebrate Soup Season with Gill Meller

Two autumn soup recipes from Gill’s book ‘Root Stem Leaf Flower’

We are delighted to share two glorious soup recipes from Gill Meller’s beautiful book ‘Root Stem Leaf Flower’ that you can enjoy with your homemade sourdough bread to keep you warm and nourished this autumn. Gill spoke with Vanessa Kimbell last night on @SourdoughSchool Instagram account, which you can catch up on via our IGTV. Keep an eye out next Spring for a webinar with Gill Meller for Sourdough Club members.

“I’m a big fan of soups that make you feel you’ve eaten well. A good minestrone or a ribollita will do that, and this chard, leek and bean soup is a superb case in point. I like to trickle this soup with my best extra-virgin olive oil before serving. View it like salt and pepper, as a seasoning.”
