This soup is similar to fresh vegetables soup that i usually make during summer month where we’re having lots of fresh vegetables . Both are delicious , although i think this one has a better taste , it could be that added the home made pesto into the soup changed the tastes to be a lot better than regular fresh vegetable soup . Soupe au Pistou is from Proven\u00e7al area of France , and all it is just fresh vegetable soup , and when you serve it , you add pesto in it . At first i wasn’t too sure about adding pesto , but i am glad i did , since it tasted really good . I have the recipe for the pesto somewhere in this web too , but here is the recipe for the soupe au pistou<\/p>\n
