Bisque (French pronunciation: [bisk] ⓘ) is a smooth, creamy, highly seasoned soup of French origin, classically based on a strained broth (coulis) of crustaceans.[1] It can be made from lobster, langoustine, crab, shrimp, or crawfish. The French bisque is one of the most popular seafood soups around the world. Although originally applied to seafood soups, the use of the word has expanded to mean any thick soup, such as bisque of tomato or bisque of mushroom.
- ^ The Academie Française Dictionary defines a bisque as: "BISQUE n. Potage fait d'un coulis de crustacés. Une bisque de homard, d'écrevisses." ("Soup made from a crustacean coulis, e.g. lobster or crawfish bisque.")
