I have the urge to make chicken soup
Comments (21)It's not media hype, although this is red meat to the media's 24/7 news cycle. The WHO on Wednesday raised its alert level to Phase 5, the second-highest, indicating a pandemic may be imminent, and was talking about moving to Phase 6. The Phase 5 alert -- the first ever -- activates added efforts to produce a vaccine. "It really is all of humanity that is under threat during a pandemic," WHO Director General Margaret Chan said in Geneva. "We do not have all the answers right now, but we will get them." We have it in our county and we now have cases in the two towns next to mine. In New YOrk, ground zero seems to be St. Francis Prep in Queens and the cases in my area are adults who worked there. I don't scare easily but I am also worried, especially for the young and old. I had Grace at the DR. Monday for a re-check of something else and there were 5 teenagers sitting int he waiting room (unusual) and I found out from the nurse after they all thought they had swine flu. I would have never brought Grace in... We are taking common sense precautions with hand washing, etc. My son is on sports that has kids from different districts and I am debating about going tonight. I am not an alarmist, but I would rather be safe than sorry. It is spreading fast....See MoreRECIPE: Chicken Noodle Soup
Comments (3)Thanks Carol and Woodie... No it wasn't me that tossed the stock down the drain Carol, but I know I've nearly done it several times...LOL and someone else did do it as I remember. It would be so easy to do wouldn't it, when we're so accustomed to draining something in the sink. Woodie I'm sure Ken's chicken soup is first rate ! I used to make thick lentil or chickpea soups more often than chicken soup, but I now love the flavour after the bones, garlic and onion have been roasted first. I often sauté the vegetables first in garlicky oil when making a lentil or chickpea soup as well, as it adds to the rich, toasty flavour. Mmm I look forward to soup weather. It's still pretty warm here but nights are turning a bit cooler. SharonCb...See MoreChicken soup - the genetic recipe
Comments (20)I've also made chicken soup my whole life, but it never seems to be the same twice, because I use what I have. I start with onion, celery, carrot, chicken parts, salt and pepper. Never any lemon because Mother is allergic. I love parsnips and often add them, but don't always have them on hand. Sometimes I add noodles, sometimes rice, sometimes just lots of vegetables. Peas at the last minute or everything just tastes like peas. Fresh herbs if it's summer here and I have them, I especially like tarragon in chicken soup. Salt to taste. Simmer for several hours, until it tastes good and the chicken falls apart. And now I'm thinking about Maurice Sendak: "In May I truly think it best To be a robin lightly dressed Concocting soup inside my nest Mix it once, mix it twice Mix that chicken soup with rice." So see? You can have soup all year, Maurice Sendak says so, LOL. Annie...See Morerecipe for medicinal chicken soup
Comments (38)Packaged broth, tinned corn, ? come on, you are a great cook. : ) Costco rotis can be picked of the meat, chill that separately, then make stock from the carcass. But you have an HMart. Add good meaty bones to the chicken carcass. I stopped by HM on the way home tonight. DH hit the Italian butcher. We have so many meaty bones I'll have to freeze some. Pork necks, beef bones, chicken paws...so much natural gelatin I can cut it with a butter knife. We are making kimchi, krauts, and bone broth this weekend for the holidays...a quarter cup minced kimchi and gingered miso, rich bone stock, is all I want in my sipping broth if feeling weak. Some protein and veg solids on the way-to-recovery-days. Might be the flu. Sounds miserable. Make the best, don't compromise. I would not bother freezing experiments with misc veg, cabbage.. Freeze the good stuff. Good broths. Add fresh veg to a sautéed mirepoix, then good bone broth....See Moredcarch7 d c f l a s h 7 @ y a h o o . c o m
