'Batchelors condensed chicken soup' I have been using this product for many years now and thought I would write a review about the reasons why. This item is bought as a 295g and is usually priced around 43p, depending on where you buy it from. I usually go to Tesco. Usually what a person would do is empty the contents of the tin into a saucepan, then gradually add in a can (you use the empty can) of water as you heat the soup. At the end of this you finish with a bowl of soup equivalent to double the size of the can you have just bought. As a soup, you can't really go wrong with this. It has a nice chicken flavour and even has small (very ...  Read the complete review

I made a suggestion for this product a couple of days ago as I'd bought some at the weekend and couldn't believe no one had done a review on it yet. Batchelors Chicken Condensed soup comes in a small tin weighing 295g but doubles up to make even more soup than you had to begin with. It can also be used for other things, wow a soup that has multiple choices, excellent. Cooking Instructions: Empty soup into a saucepan. Gradually add one can of cold water (or half milk, half water for extra richness) stirring constantly. Heat the soup to serving temperature. Do not boil or overheat as this impairs the quality.

Now that winter is almost upon us, time to start enjoying some hearty warming meals. This is an old favourite of ours. It has been around for years and years and even though it may not be a top seller thesedays, it still commands some shelf space at almost all major food retailers. Biggest thing going for it is that it is thick and you can water it down as much or as little as you like. You can even use milk if you like to make it a bit richer and creamier. This makes it ideal as a base for home-made soup, by adding extra vegetables, left-overs etc. It's also really good as a base for pasta dishes. It may only be 5.5% chicken, but you can actually ...  Read the complete review

I love the fact that Batchelors Condensed soups are so versatile. When we were growing up, one of my favourites dishes my mum made was chicken with peppers in one of the condensed soup flavours (mushroom, chicken or celery) with loads of rice to mop up the delicious rich sauce. As a student who couldn't afford to buy chicken (going out was far more important than eating properly) just the soup and rice did me fine! Now there are apparently 12 different flavours, and hundreds of recipes for these 'soups' including a low fat chicken one. The soup comes in 295g tins (much smaller than normal tins) with a nice, attractive label - a picture of a mouth watering bowl ...  Read the complete review
