Soup

In the English language, the word "soup" has developed several phrasal uses. And use it to derive statements such as:. The former dish is dominated by the carbohydrate while the latter dish is dominated by the soup liquid. In logic, specialization occurs when you take a statement such as:. Compare to the western noodle soup, which is more of a soup with small noodle pieces. For instance, 'Bird' is a specialization of 'Animal' because every bird is an animal, and there are animals which are not birds (dogs, for instance). The Asian soup noodle is a large portion of long noodles served in a bowl of broth. Concept B is a specialization of concept A if and only if:.

A feature of East Asian soups not normally found in Western cuisine is the use of tofu in soups. Specialization is an important way to generate propositional knowledge, by applying general knowledge, such as the theory of gravity, to specific instances, such as "when I release this apple, it will fall to the floor".

Cold fruit soups are most common in Scandinavian, Baltic and Eastern European cuisines while hot fruit soups with meat appear in Middle Eastern, Central Asian and Chinese cuisines. Fruit soups may include milk, sweet or savoury dumplings, spices, or alcoholic beverages like brandy or champagne. Some like Norwegian 'fruktsuppe' may be served hot and rely on dried fruit such as raisins and prunes and so could be made in any season. Many recipes are for cold soups served when fruit was in season during hot weather.

Fruit soups are served hot or cold depending on the recipe. Commercial soup became popular with the invention of canning in the 19th century. It is considered by many an effective remedy for the common cold, and is sometimes referred to as "Jewish penicillin" (a reference to the stereotypical fondness of American Jews for chicken soup). Today, according to the Campbell Soup Company, chicken noodle soup is one of the most popular soups in America.

The Japanese miso is an example of a concentrated soup paste. Portable soup was devised in the 18th century by boiling seasoned meat until a thick, resinous syrup was left that could be dried and stored for months at a time. The first American cooking pamphlet dedicated to soup recipes was written in 1882 by Emma Ewing: Soups and Soup Making. In 1794, Jean Baptiste Gilbert Payplat dis Julien, a refugee from the French Revolution, opened an eating establishment in Boston called Restorator, and became known as "The Prince of Soups".

In particular, German immigrants living in Pennsylvania were famous for their potato soups. English cooking dominated early colonial cooking; but as new immigrants arrived from other countries, other national soups gained popularity. A 1772 cookbook, The Frugal Housewife, contained an entire chapter on the topic. In America, the first colonial cookbook was published by William Parks in Williamsburg, Virginia in 1742, based on Eliza Smith's Compleat Housewife; or Accomplished Gentlewoman's Companion and it included several recipes for soups and bisques.

This prompted the use of the modern word restaurant to describe the shops. In 1765, a Parisian entrepreneur opened a shop specializing in restaurers. The word restaurant was first used in France in the 16th century, to describe a highly concentrated, inexpensive soup, sold by street vendors called restaurer, that was advertised as an antidote to physical exhaustion. The spoon was designed to accommodate the new fashion of wearing large, stiff ruffles around the neck.

Thin soups became popular in Europe during the 17th century, when the spoon was invented. Often described as potages, French onion soup is an example of a modern soup that retains this bread sop. The word soup originates from the Teutonic word suppa, which refers to a Medieval dish consisting of a thick stew poured on slices of bread, called sop, used to soak up the liquid. In late Medieval and Early Modern Europe, the peasant diet consisted almost solely of potage.

"Potage" (connoting the contents of the cooking pot) denotes a soup where meat and vegetables are boiled together with water until it forms a thick soup (generally fairly easy on the meat). . Other ingredients commonly used to thicken soups and broths include rice, flour, and grain. Thick soups are classified depending upon the type of thickening agent used: purées are vegetable soups thickened with starch; bisques are made from puréed shellfish thickened with cream; cream soups are thickened with béchamel sauce; and veloutés are thickened with eggs, butter and cream.

The established French classifications of clear soups are bouillon and consommé. Traditionally, soups are classified into two broad groups: clear soups and thick soups. Stews are cooked in covered containers for longer periods of time, at a gentle boil with less water and at a lower heat. The language may have shifted over time, but the modern definitions of soup and stew were established in the 18th century: soups usually are more liquid; stews are thicker, containing more solid ingredients.

Over the centuries, the terms gruel and potage have become separated from broth and stock (and their refinement, consommé). Boiling was not a common cooking technique until the invention of waterproof containers about 5,000 years ago, so soups presumably were little-known before that time.
