Bisque Soup Cookbook

Bisque is a French creamy, highly seasoned soup made from straining a broth of crustaceans, typically crab, shrimp, lobster, langoustine or crawfish. It's a popular seafood soup, made by lightly sautéing the crustaceans, simmering in wine and aromatic ingredients, straining and adding cream. "Bisque" originates from the Bay of Biscay, and the word "biscuites" means "twice cooked."

The term "bisque" can also refer to non-seafood soups made by pureeing pre-cooked ingredients in a food processor, such as tomato, mushroom, squash and red pepper.

This cookbook offers a variety of delicious bisque recipes.
