Sadly I lost part of my stick blender, so I can no longer blend any sticks.
This rules out the Garam Masala Carrot Soup™ I like to make. Perfect side for pulled pork.
Also no creamy potato leek, or loaded potato soup for that matter. Sad panda!
Been wanting to create a soup that captures the essence of the American Midwest- beer, cheese, bratwurst, maybe some sauerkraut for texture and mustard seeds...
@aspecurian Oh, hope it turns up soon!
You don’t think it ran away with the bat cookie cutter?!!😳
@KarenSohne It has been gone for years. Should really either replace it or fix it.
@KarenSohne That sounds so good!
@KarenSohne Wow, that is not like anything I have ever tried.
@aspecurian surprise yerself!
@KarenSohne I think I might have to give that a shot.
Ever try fresh lemon juice in a bog standard chicken soup? Crazy good.
@aspecurian Never tried that, l love my chicken soup, maybe l’ll try that next time
@KarenSohne Lemon and fresh cracked black pepper.
@aspecurian @KarenSohne I also use fresh ginger.
@misslovelymess @aspecurian Sometimes l do too! I need more greens, so l’ll get some ginger too, thanks for the reminder!
@KarenSohne @misslovelymess Fresh ginger is something I never experienced until my mid to late 20's.
If I had it in chicken soup I probably would have freaked out.
@aspecurian @misslovelymess l love ginger in food. I’ve not put it in the chicken soup, but have grated it into squash soup
@KarenSohne @aspecurian I microplane it into chicken soup, and other soups and dishes. It’s one of my favorite ingredients.
@misslovelymess @aspecurian
What’s a microplane?
@misslovelymess @aspecurian thanks!
@misslovelymess @KarenSohne I love these. Great for nutmeg.
@KarenSohne @misslovelymess Getting to be the time of year I used to set by a store of ginger infused vodka. I really don't find that I have much appetite for drink these days but that stuff was great for the occasional holiday cocktail.
@aspecurian @KarenSohne @misslovelymess I need to remember that. My older ginger plant might be ready for small harvests soon.
@aspecurian when we were besieged with boxes of pears from my father in laws trees, my husband would make pear compote, a slightly runny pear sauce, slightly sweet with lots of cinnamon and sometimes ginger. That stuff was amazing in squash soup and heaven on pancakes!
@aspecurian lt was indeed! The secret ingredient is to stir about a cup of cranberry sauce into the soup with the chopped cilantro just before serving. We have enough for another dinner then any remaining soup will be the “broth” for some quinoa
