He has a very quirky personality, and it's sometimes said that the Seinfeld Soup Nazi episode is modeled after him.This book had a massive impact on my home cooking philosophy. In addition to pointing out how he embraces the characteristics of poorly cooked eggs for certain dishes in his egg chapter, his soup chapter was particularly life changing. I've always followed the "big batch" soup method, where I make my soups in very large batches and tune as needed. This has the effect of making all of the flavors mingle together. Kenny's philosophy is that this is not always ideal, and haven eaten many of his soups, I never realized the contrast but now agree. He keeps an assortment of broths on hand for his soups, but makes each bowl to order. Each time an order for a bowl comes in, he will prepare the additions as needed, usually by sauteing. This gives more distinct separation of the flavors.To put this into practice this week, I used a mushroom/asparagus/onion dish that I created to serve as a side with some steak this week. This gave me three different soups in practice:Soup A: Chunky Mushroom and Asparagus Soup (I just heat the broth and filling, and combine, season to taste. The veggies stay Al dente without turning into mush.)Soup B: Creamy Mushroom and Asparagus Soup (Same as Soup A, I just stir in some Creme Fresh)Soup C: Mushroom and Asparagus Bisque (Same as Soup B, just Vitamixed)I like adding crushed cashews to all three soups at serving.I don't think I'll go back to huge batches of soups that I get bored with. While I always have a fresh batch of broth from the previous couple of weeks scraps, I can now change which soups I make out of the broth each day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Renegade Soups, Hundreds of Soups *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2014* Important chapter and family in NYC history.This restaurant, this family, the neighborhood that used to be, and most importantly, their philosophy of food -- and recipes! Kenny Shopsin narrates his recipes replete with curse words, --- you'll feel like you're in his kitchen.Shopsin's was the eatery on Bedford and Morton Streets in Greenwich Village down the corner from where I lived -- where you could get hundreds of types of soups with more than a serving of NYC attitude. Truly the best food around, -- plus we had the life of the Shopsin family all through our eating experience and neighborhood life. These are New Yorker's that gave New York its allure to city dwellers and visitors alike. I'd invite my mother down, just to have pancakes and eggs with them. This family was noble in their own unique way.This book is a must for anyone who was ever fed by the Shopsins, and for those who wonder what all the fuss about New York City authenticity was about. Buy this book and give it to people who like the real thing, who love recipes, who want a good read, who are renegadesforever,AnnieAnnie Lanzillottoauthor of "L is for Lion: an italian bronx butch freedom memoir" SUNY Pressand "Schistsong" BORDIGHERA Presswww.annielanzillotto.com L Is for Lion: An Italian Bronx Butch Freedom Memoir (SUNY series in Italian/American Culture) Schistsong (Via Folios) Blue Pill Carry My Coffee (Live) Eleven Recitations --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9351341-eat-me-the-food-and-philosophy-of-kenny-shopsin-cookbook](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/9351341-eat-me-the-food-and-philosophy-of-kenny-shopsin-cookbook) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
