What is the most unusual soup you have had? For me, it was a soup with sausage slices and vegetable pieces. I just had it for lunch earlier today. What is yours?

AppleJuice:) · 04-11-2012, 14:23

Carrot and orange, I didn't like it.

Haha, that's fine. I guess your tastebuds that pick up sour flavours work better than mine. I can't really taste the orange as an individual flavour within the soup (assuming it was the orange that put you off).

I'd be a useless food taster I think.

The orange flavour was really strong in the one I had, was really orangey, just too much!!!

Have to agree with this, carrot and orange soup to me was just wrong, carrot soup is very nice but with orange no! will avoid in future

Sauerkraut soup. It was in one of those hotels were the soup of the day is made with the leftovers of the day before.

Utopian Girl · 04-11-2012, 16:59

I bought a tin of Chinese style soup/casserole from the foreign food section in Tesco. I thought as it was low calorie & veggie with soya in it I'd give it a go. It just seemed weird & slimy!

I ate it because I didn't want to waste it but never again! I can't remember the name, sorry.

In Germany, a thin broth type soup with sausage and bits of omelettey egg in it.

Cullen skink

Cullen skink is a thick Scottish soup made of smoked haddock, potatoes and
onions. An authentic cullen skink will use finnan haddie, but it may be prepared ...

stud u like · 05-11-2012, 19:41

A very thin,watery,highly peppered soup with dumplings in it.

annette kurten · 05-11-2012, 20:39

parsnip, almond and ginger. not hugely different but very tasty.

4smiffy · 05-11-2012, 21:48

How on earth is Cullen Skink unusual? It's a classic.

ChoccyCarole · 05-11-2012, 22:36

delicious carrots with prunes

and beetroot soup [borscht]

both yummy

Lainiomonkio · 06-11-2012, 10:17

I went over to Malaysia after my wedding to celebrate with my family who couldn't come over here and we had a big banquet as is tradition. I am totally against shark fin soup and wouldn't allow it at the banquet so we had an alternative soup which was super delicious but contained fish lips...

milmol · 06-11-2012, 10:43

Garlic soup in Prague.

must have had about 6 bulbs in it plus a huge dollop of garlic cheese in it too

Gaditano · 06-11-2012, 15:50

Haven't tried it, but I have a recipe for five penis soup. Chinese. Thought to promote virility. Yum.

molyesha · 06-11-2012, 16:07

Do you make that out of any particular penis, or just any old penises you have lying around?

It was the penises of five different animals - sheep, deer, goat, pig and ox. You'd probably have to ask the butcher to get them in!!

It was in a book unsurpringly called Strange Food.
