Jinx makes good soup
 

and you cannah have any.



unless you want to come 'round for a visit some day with plenty of advance warning

recipe plz kthxbai

what she said.

I don't think she uses recipes...... but it gets better every time

that's what she said.

Jinx makes good soup .... but you have to get her bones out first.

:) that was funny. Chuckle funny, not lol.:)

It was just basic chicken noodle - I thought Ippy was getting sick but she was just really tired.

1. Get some mirepoix sweating in a bit of olive oil in your big soup pot.
2. Get some chicken breasts braising in some chicken stock, add a lot of salt and even more black pepper. You could do some rosemary, thyme etc. but I didn't because the girl likes it simple.
3. Get some noodles cooking then rinse them in cold. I like broad no-yolk egg noodles.
4. Combine, add more stock, simmer a bit or whatever...

Is that like swamp fever?

No, no, no..... it's where soup comes from. Wiki

edit:
You want your onions to be clear and your carrots to be soft before you start adding the other soup ingredients.

Only wiki calls it that. To the rest of us it's carrots, celery and onions, and mire-pox is swamp fever. Just sayin'. :p

sounds yummy, I vote one pan, though. do the chicken first, set it aside. Then the veggie bit (same pan). then add the chicken back in, and eventually the noodles. Then again, no-one's asking for my recipe. :lol:

Even my children call it mirpoix (and they know you need parsnips, not carrots, in white soups)... but they like to watch the food network too...

The mirepoix cooks in oil, the chicken in liquid (which you add to the soup with the chicken). If you cooked them in the same pan you'd have to wash it in between, or at very least put the contents into another container (pan?) while you cook the next thing. And the noodles have to be cooked first or they would seriously fuck up the consistancy of your broth. Just do it my way gaddamnit.

Egad! You don't make your own noodles?! For shame.

No, and not just because the children put fimo in the pasta roller.

EVEN your children? They're home-schooled, they have no contact with the real world! ;)

you put stuff on hold in one of the bowls you will serve the soup in.... :p
