Hello this thread is for soup discussion. Hopefully we can curtain soup chat derailing in other threads by keeping it all here.

'Soup' is defined as regular foods in salt and water. Anyone can make soup; it's really easy. There's a reason it's called 'soup'. Does anyone know?

My favorite soup is probably beef or lamb barley vegetable soup.

Do you like soup? Why do you like soup? Let me know.

Burp
the easiest and bestest,
chicken filet in a crockpot, add a jar of salsa,
wait 6 to 8 hours for it to be ready....or go do something else in the mean time.

when it's finished and you're ready to eat, add half a liter of (hot) water to the pot,
stir,
eat,
thank me later

you're wrong, the best is a jar of grape jelly with a jar of hot sauce and meatballs, then you add hot water

this soup is way better than yours

Beef barley is wonderful in the winter.

So are turnip soup and borsch.

Black eyed pea soup with bacon and spinach also a favorite of mine.

You have to split the peas with a very sharp knife. A rough hew will make your soup gritty.

I have come to discourse on the profound inequities of the American political system.

Stupid simple soup I figured out for when you're living in poverty like me are seriously constrained by a budget/or are lazy as gently caress.

Take chicken broth. 1 to 2 cans of this stuff. Maybe add water
Take potatoes. Any kind will due. Peel if your life is empty and soulless, or leave unpeeled for flavor and textures.
Take onion. Chop onion up. Throw that poo poo in the pot. I used one, but you can use as many as your strange smell requires.
Add spices. In my case, that would be some purloined curry spices, pepper, salt, and garlic. Did I say garlic? I meant a lot of garlic.

Boil for...a while. Until the potatoes have been reduced to mushy goodness. You may want to break them up while you're doing this.

Serve hot, put in facehole. Should be extremely mediocre to passably decent.

Potato + Onion (or Leek, or both!) is classic as heck and, on topic with the incoming summer heat, works really good cold too. Chill the soup, blend it if you feel like it to really make it smooth, add a little bit of dairy (milk/cream) if you have it, re-season a little, and you can pretend you're fancy by calling it by a French name

Buy 1 Costco ready-cooked roasted chicken.

Remove the lid and let it cool in the fridge uncovered for 1 hour.

Pre-heat your crock pot to Low.

Strain a jar of salsa. Keep the salsa juice.

Remove the breast and thigh meat from your Costco ready-cooked roasted chicken. Shred the breast and thigh meat.

Add chicken carcass and salsa juice to crock pot. Cook for 8 hours.

Pour your salsa chicken stock over a chicken cheese. Serve with a side of chicken meat mixed with salsa pulp Salad.

You're welcome!

Come to St. Louis and I'll take you to some good food that is not being ruined by snobby cunts.


I've been informed that the great cuntening here is irreversible, so my choices are to ignore said cunts or leave.

Let's have a vote: should a cooking tard interested in getting better stay and learn or gtfo?

Can we talk more about Pho? That poo poo is bomb diggity.



Here's my pho story:
One day my Vietnamese coworker invited me over for Pho. He said I could help make it, but that it takes a while. It turns out you have to cook that poo poo ALL drat DAY. And just for the broth! All the poo poo you put in there seems like an afterthought with how loving difficult it is to get the broth right.
Noodle soup bitches. Eat it every day and you'll live forever.
