A creamier and thicker consistency than soup – this French-style soup is more complex in flavour, and almost always uses a base made with seafood stock or vegetable stock. Ideal for a filling but light evening supper, here are seven variations to enjoy.

MUSHROOM BISQUE

Swap the milk in a classic recipe with coconut milk and garlicky mushrooms, instead of seafood – to make an umami-packed vegan version.

SEAFOOD BISQUE

The classic bisque of all bisques – throw in any fresh seafood you can find or pick between a combination of squid, shrimp, fish and mussels.

ROASTED CARROT BISQUE

Offset the sweetness of carrots with a savoury veggie stock and lots of aromatics like garlic and thyme for a vibrant orange bisque to eat for dinner.

CORN BISQUE

One of the most underrated types of bisques, the sweet corn version uses simple flavours of spring onions, red chilli flakes and a drizzle of pesto to boost flavours.
