Perpetual Soup Thread

[Ice Cream]

Bumping the soup thread for November!

Today I have a simple veg soup on the stove: veg broth, onion, celery, carrot, zucchini, canned tomatoes. Bay leaf, S&P, pinch of thyme. I'm adding a can of great northern beans as well. Sort of minestrone-esque.

I made something similar last night. Added some parmesan at the table and it was delicious.

I am planning on some easy tomato soup and some pea soup for this week.

I have made it numerous times! It is a winner. Did I post the IP minestrone I made DD last week?

[Ice Cream]

I looked through this entire thread and downloaded a bunch of recipes. You've got some real winners.
You should have a "Meri's recipes" thread here. No kidding.

I had a delicious Cuban Spicy Banana soup yesterday at a restaurant, served with a delicious breadstick that was like a skinny garlic bread crouton. I can't wait to have a kitchen and try making it myself.

Not sure if this is a good recipe but this sounds like it might be it.

Made White Beans au Vin from the New York Times for tonight, and it's quite good. I didn't use canned beans, though. Also didn't use cognac.  I don't have any.

INGREDIENTS
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 medium carrots, diced into
1/2-inch pieces (about 1 1/2
cups)
5 medium shallots, chopped
(about 1 cup)
Kosher salt and black pepper
8 ounces cremini mushrooms,
trimmed and quartered
5 thyme sprigs
3 garlic cloves, minced (about 1
tablespoon)
½ cup dry red wine, such as
Côtes du Rhône
2 teaspoons tomato paste
2 (15-ounce) cans cannellini
beans, rinsed and drained
PREPARATION
YIELD 4 servings
TIME 45 minutes
White Beans au Vin
By Lidey Heuck
This recipe uses canned white beans in place of chicken for a quick and totally vegetarian riff on
classic coq au vin (https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1018529-coq-au-vin). Mushrooms, red wine,
Cognac and a splash of balsamic vinegar stirred in just before serving help this dish develop an
impressive depth of flavor in just a short time. The quality of your vegetable broth makes a big
difference here; use an organic or other good-quality brand for best results.
Step 1
In a Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the
carrots and shallots, season to taste with salt and pepper,
and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until all
the vegetables are tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 3
Add the thyme sprigs and garlic, and cook until fragrant,
about 30 seconds. Add the wine and tomato paste and cook,
stirring occasionally, until the wine is almost completely
evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the beans, broth, Cognac, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2
teaspoon pepper, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Turn the heat to low, partly cover, and simmer, stirring

2 cups low-sodium vegetable
broth
1 tablespoon Cognac or brandy
2 tablespoons chopped fresh
parsley, plus more to taste
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
occasionally, until the sauce has reduced and thickened, 25
to 30 minutes.
Step 5
Remove and discard the thyme sprigs. Off the heat, stir in
the parsley and balsamic vinegar; season to taste with salt
and pepper. Divide among shallow bowls and sprinkle with
more parsley, if desired.

Looks good, I want to try it.

I just read a book about mushrooms and really want to start using them more. I'd like to learn how to grow them on the boat, using coffee grounds and such.

Made this many moons ago and made it tonight. Very good.

I'm doing a version of this mushroom soup in the IP today. I made a couple tweaks to the recipe based on what was in the house (used a penzey's blend instead of thyme, white mushrooms only) and I'm going to add wild rice. Will let you all know how it is.

ETA:

It came out pretty good! I used a little more butter than recommended bc I realized I needed to use milk (I had no cream), and it was plenty rich. It didn't thicken up quite as much I might have liked, but it still had good mouth feel.

I'm sure I could have just done this on the stove, but the IP sped it up a bit and I suspect it deepened the flavors as well.

I made the tomato braised chickpea recipe in the IP from the NYTimes, and it is a soup. Not at all what I expected. Dinner tonight or tomorrow night.

Wow. That is unusual!
I just bought a plantain yesterday.  I am going to try it in the air fryer.

Bump cause it's almost November!

I made a small batch of lentil soup this weekend. Mmm

[BonitaApplebum]

Yay soup season!!!

I made mushroom barley soup today. Tasty, but almost too salty even with using 4 c broth and 2 c water instead of all broth. Low sodium broth next time, since I do like the additions of worcestershire and soy sauce for umami.
