"Creamy Tortilla Chip and Tomato Soup Serves 4. Start to finish: 30 minutes. This is our adaptation of a simple sopa de tortilla we learned in Mexico City. Blitzed into the base, tortilla chips thicken the soup, while broken bits placed at the bottom of individual bowls add a crispy contrast. The soup loves garnishes. In addition to sour cream and cheese, we like to offer diced avocado, chopped fresh cilantro and lime wedges. From "Milk Street Shorts," by Christopher Kimball (Voracious, $25.95)."
"It's easy to give up on the dinner routine. But then a cookbook comes along like the newest Milk Street title, "Shorts: Recipes that Pack a Punch," with the promise to "use the least number of ingredients and preparation for the maximum result." It's the gift you didn't know you needed - and a reminder that cooking doesn't have to be fussy."
Recipes are organized into Short (under an hour), Shorter (under 45 minutes) and Shortest (30 minutes or less), with additional sections for skillet suppers, traybakes, easy oven recipes, "short-ish" meals, and sweets. The approach emphasizes minimal ingredients and preparation for maximum flavor and result. Highlighted quick recipes include a creamy tortilla chip and tomato soup that uses blitzed tortilla chips to thicken the base and broken chips for a crisp contrast, plus garnish suggestions. Other featured meals include peanut noodles with quick chili crisp and hearty beef-stuffed pitas. The focus supports fast, flavorful weeknight dinners with time to spare.
