you should know i like soup

[jabumbo]

i made a thread about this a long time ago, and didnt want to bring it back (but i do have those recipies down allready)


so everyone should know ii love soup. and i want to make more soup; so you should post your cool soup recipies here. and give an idea of how many servings it is for. i'd like to make a large amount, so that i can save it for future lunches and such

[Leonie]

I like lentil soup a lot, although i think a lot people dont. i dont have a recipe but maybe you could try to google it up or something.

i also like mushroom soup a lot :)

[alexandra]

mustard soup. (y)

[ms.peachy]

I'm making a curried pumpkin/butternut squash soup as I write this. I think I posted here how I made it last time, but if I didn't or if you can't find it with the 'search' function let me know. I'm pretty positive I did though and it wasn't that long ago, because I remember writing something about how you can leave out the saffron if it's just too pricey.

[kleptomaniac]

i've had potato soup. that was pretty good. :o

[fucktopgirl]

yea ,i am a freak soup too!
I dont follow recipies really tho!
But you got with the taste!

I love my chicken soup:

chicken broth(real fat form the chicken you cook)
piece of chicken(i use just the white basically)
brocoli,carott,onion,(but i think you can any kind of vegetable,,but brocoli is a must)
rice(almost at the end and not too much,like a hand full)
garlic( i put a lot)
salt,pepper,cayenne(if you like)

And ,ususally i put less spice and along the way i adjust it!

green lentills soup:

green lentills
potatoes
carotte
onion
chicken broth(powder one)
salt, pepper,garlic
butter(a little spoon)

first i let the lentills cook in the pot,when there are middle cook,i add all the others ingredients,cover,low heat ,and let itcook!

yea,and i all do those "a la bonne frankette"meaning with my judgement,i dont follow portion ...

[jackrock]

we all love soup... but beware of the cambpell soup with the red and white label... soo unhealthy.... i like thick progresso soup, and stews filled with potatoes, peas etc (y)

[Leonie]

espacially funkymustard soup right? ;)

[cosmo105]

bob's red mill makes some bitchin' soup mixes. just add it to some water + boullion / broth and simmer for about an hour, and add a sage leaf + celery pieces + potatoes as desired

i suppose you could put in some crock-potted beef if you wish, too

thats ok, i amnot a squash fan actually. one of the few things i don't eat.


hey leonie: do you have a recipie you could post for that mushroom soup? i love mushrooms, and i would stick them in some stock by itself if it would taste more filling...

[discopants]

Listen up sucka. Do vegetable soup but add pasta and half a slice of bread. It's rustic to the max!!!

Oh that's how the Italians use up leftover minestrone/bean soup and bread that's gone a bit stale, by making "ribolitta" (literally, 'reboiled'). Put the sliced bread in the bottom of the bowl, add a layer of fresh grated parmesan on top of it, and then ladle in the hot soup on top of that.

i was unaware of this if it is true.

Well... it's not the best thing for you, but it's not the worst. I think it's a bit unfair to single Campbell's out, because really it's thhe same story with many of not most tinned soup brands - they do tend to have a very high sodium content, and often a surprising amount of sugar as well. The creamier varieties may also contain a fair amount of fats, although not neccessarly an excessive amount. They're certainly not going to be as good for you as a freshly-made soup (not much is), but I think there are much worse things you can eat.

[jabumbo]

my roomie has eaten canned soup and/or canned green beans almost every day in the past 2 weeks for his dinner. sometimes he throws a salad of 95% lettuce together as well...

[Videodrome]

thanx ms. peachy... i was wondering.

Slobber, drool, chomp the air suggestively...

[natonmeans]

something easy:

1 can of chunky soup (i like sirloin burger and country vegetables but any kind will do, just make sure when you shake it it doesn't sound liquidy, should sound sorta solid)
1 cup rice OR 1 package ramen noodles

make da rice/ramen, micro the soup, drain the damn rice/ramen(always leave about 5 or more tablespoons(or a little less!) of ramen broth to mix up into the noodles then mix to a fine little monstrosity! great for a tight budget, if you dont have much money the soup is 1.50-3.00 and rice ramen is .25 cents to 1.00

OR
ramen + 1 can of chunk ham or chicken breast (canned) dump 1/2
or less onto paper plate and cover w/ the noodles then apply futtermans rule and eat...always use chicken flavored noodles OR sapporo japanese noodles

[b i o n i c]

even easier... and its the shit when you're sick.

ingredients:
garlic
olive oil
salt
water


trow some oil in the pot and trow the thin sliced garlic up in that. brown the garlic. add water and salt. maybe a bullion cube... voila. garlic broth for those coughy shivery nights. add pasta if you wish. good shit.

bitchin' soup mixes.


I don't know why, but that made me chuckle quite a bit.



Big fan of Portobella mushroom soup here. (y)

[Rock]

I just had some bomb ass soup I made last night.

1 lb of raw shrimp (51-60 count), peeled, and deveined.
About 60 Fl ounces of chicken broth (4 medium cans)
1 tablespoon of fresh ginger, minced
3 handfuls of fresh baby spinach
about 8 or 9 oz. of Thai Rice Noodles (half a package for me)
1/2 a cup of finely chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper
Pepper to taste

Soak the noodles in some warm water for about 5-10 minutes. In my experience if you don't soak the noodles before hand they suck up a lot of the broth.

Put the noodles, shrimp, broth, and ginger in a soup pot and let it simmer for about 8 or 9 minutes

Add crushed red pepper, freshly ground pepper, cilantro, and baby spinach.
Simmer some more for about 5 minutes or until the shrimp is done.

Put in bowl, and enjoy the goodness.

I'd say it made a good 10 servings. So its gonna be a soupy week at my house.

Its really simple to make and really really good. I'd say this is probably one of the best soups I've ever made.

Maybe I should have put some lemongrass in this.

Also, I rarely measure anything so this is all a guesstimate. except for the shrimp and the broth.

[jabumbo]

that does sound really good. i havent had shrimp in a while, and i could go for some actually...


i'm a guesser as well when i cook. i prefer to just add as i feel necessary

[zorra_chiflada]

i pretty much have soup every week. it's easy. it comes in a can. i open the can. i pour the contents into a pot. i heat.

[hitmonlee]

i only eat potato soup.
not potato and leek
just potato
yummmmm

oh i ate tom yum and it was ok but i wouldnt eat it again by choice

jamie oliver's bastardised french onion soup!

1.1kg/2 and a half lbs onions, chopped etc
1.3l/2 and a half pints stock - whatever you like

I had soup today, one of those "just add water" things. Anyway, it was the first time since 1994 that I had soup. It was like normal food, only wetter.

[kll]

How do you remember that 1994 was the last time?

[TAL]

Because I was at school then and I haven't had soup since school. And also my memory is weird like that.
