Thanks CP63,  I have been saving the rind of the Parmesan cheese so will use it in your soup.   Good soup weather here,  snowed yesterday and was 2 this morning. ;D ;D

Oh wow Chookie, snow. How exciting.

CP63, I love the Esk Valley cookbook, although I must admit I haven't used it for a while.

Nice work CP63 - I got my mother's old Esk Valley cookbook a few months ago looking for a couple of old favourites.
