15 Gallons of Vegetable Soup

I made this today at work for a luncheon I’ll be serving tomorrow. I always try to make soups a day ahead and let their flavors mingle overnight; they taste better the second day. None-the-less, I had some myself for lunch today…at nearly 57 liters a cup or two won’t be missed. It was deliciousContinue reading “15 Gallons of Vegetable Soup”

Recette de soupe à l’oignon gratinée (photos et mots)

French onion soup. This is such a simple soup to make and while it may have the reputation of being a “restaurant recipe” it probably began as a peasant food and is exceedingly simple to make. Look at the main ingredients: Onions, broth, and bread (cheese was a later addition). Old-time soups often contained breadContinue reading “Recette de soupe à l’oignon gratinée (photos et mots)”

>Put It In A Pot And Boil It

>Soup to me is the ultimate one-pot meal…simplicity at its best. It’s a method that has been used to cook foods for eons…since we humans first figured out how to cook food in a leak-proof/fire-proof vessel over a live fire (some of the earliest vessels were dried hollowed-out gourds, and even dried animal’s stomachs).
