Soup

[Jamme]

I like soup, but it has to have chunks of veggies or meat, poultry in it...i like homemade soups the best, hate tinned stuff...

Me too! I've never seen the attraction of 'cream of tomato'

i particularly like it during the colder months..here we have something called 'lobby'..which has nothing at all to do with politics...it's kind of a soupy casserole, very nice.

Never heard of it. You're from Britain, right?

I can make a good broccoli and stilton soup. Easy peasy and people are always impressed when its served as a lunch or a starter:

1) Boil a few chopped potatoes and a head of broccolli
2) Whiz them in the whizzer with milk and a big chunk of strong blue stilton
3) Back in the pan on low heat, the longer the better.

Et voila

Me either. Tomatoes belong in ketchup, spaghetti sauce, or on my sandwich.

Oh, Emma! "Whiz them in the whizzer"

Seafood gumbo. What! Now that's good.

Brocolli and Stilton soup sounds lovely...i adore cheese! .

Yeah, i'm a Brit, i thought you'd know that after all this time

here is a link for the LOBBY! recipe, it's a local recipe, like our Staffs oatcake's...scroll down and it's on the bottom left of the page... http://www.kidsgrove.info/dialect.htm

remember the Oatcakes chat we had in the pub last year..mine are soft and lined with melted cheese and bacon (and any other combo you might like)...your's are hard and crunchy like birdfood ..nice with a lump o' stilton i should imagine tho'..and a good pint of Guinness to wash it down, lest it get stuck in the oesophogus

God Bless.

Interesting... thanks for the link

Yep I remember the oatcake discussion. Ours are hard and crunchy (can;t say I have ever tried bird food to compare them with though) and great with cheese.

In the event of something getting stuck in the old oesophagus:

1) Coca cola
2) 20mg iv buscopan
3) Refer for GA oesophagoscopy, consent for risk of oesopageal rupture.

I must say I prefer soup without any chunks as much as possible. *L*

I was a wierd kid..i ate dog biscuits (in addition to human food..just to see what it tasted like..dog choc drops made me )

I also ate millet, that my friends bird had in his cage

I grew out of eating animal; food, but boy do Schmakios smell good

 

[Jamme]

Come to think of it - I ate the parrot's sunflower seeds

Nothing like oatcakes mind you

I have to try that! That sounds delicious! Thanks, Shannon!

I am the queen of soup recipies!

For those anti-cream of tomato-ers- I have a really easy to die for tomato bisque recipie. I really dislike chunks of tomatoes in food- but man... this soup is sooooo good!

I like Tomato Bisque -- it's one of my favorite soups. Another one I really like is Lobster Bisque. But it has to be good Lobster Bisque... because (like Tomato Soup) when it's bad, it's *really* BAD.
