Soup is good

Thread: Soup is good
I like a chicken fajita soup that has peppers, rice, spices, shit like that.

I have also eaten many gallons of beef barley soup in my lifetime.

Chicken noodle soup is always good.

Also really enjoy meatball soup with potatoes and carrots and piroshki.
 
I boguht 2 whole chicken yesterday for soup purposes. So easy to make some good, fresh chicken broth, just put a chicken in a large pot, add soup vegetables, fill with water, add some salt and pepper, and let it cook for 2-3 hours. Enjoy the meat on the day of the cooking, portionize and freeze the rest. Tastes great as is, but you can add noodles, pancake stripes, or whatever soup ingredient you like. Relatively low calorie, too, so you can eat a lot without falling out of weightloss.

Soup for me should be a good starter for a main course. That's why I like Chinese soups. My favorite being Hot and Sour soup.

I drink chicken bone broth daily.

The key to good soup is either making it from scratch or buying something you know uses simple ingredients. The bone broth I buy is instant (powder form), but just as good as non powder. Collagen from the bones is extremely good for the stomach and can help with digestive problems or Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

I drink bone broth for the stated reasons but am not a fan of soups in general. As I have difficulty eating I usually do a creamy cheesy and spicy tomato soup. Won ton soups I discard the broth entirely as it reminds me of used dishwashing water.

i love soup so much I'll have it in summer. some favorites:

- generic meat + vegetable soup. Clear out the fridge and use up extra dry beans or noodles. everyone should be able to make this.
- matzo ball soup + lamb meatballs. @cryptoadam is always welcome to dinner
- lentil soup + meat, usually pork.
- pho. Easiest soup in the world, I dunno why people pay restaurants money for this amazing soup.
- cheeseburger chowder, topped with fresh tomatos and a blob of sour cream
- white bean soup, with dumplings layered on top and cooked

Homemade broth is also easy. we tend to have several frozen bags of concentrated turkey or beef broth + extra gelatin to give it the consistency of runny Jello. This is thawed, watered down, and spiced for the soup in question

An alternative is:

Dry cubes and the canned or wine-boxed broth is 100% garbage, especially beef broth.

Love all kinds of soup - beetroot, tomato, onion, ramen. And it doesn't lose flavor from heating up later like other foods do. Unfortunately I don't enjoy cooking, and there are few good soup restaurants nearby.

Albeit quite simple I do really like Chicken & Sweetcorn Soup as a goto, however, I'm quite partial to something like a haddock and/or salmon chowder as well.

I love soup. It's what I cook 70% of the time.

My favorites are Bigos (Polish Hunter's Stew), Pozole, a good Ham and Pea, Potato soup, and Korean Tofu soup. Like borscht. Love pho as well, but it's one soup I've haven't tried to make myself. I've made the others.

And if you haven't tried bigos or pozole, do yourself a favor. Go. Now.

This right here. The Vietnamese are like the Mexicans. Most of their dishes are the same, but served in different ways. Tacos can be served as Tostadas, Vampiros, Burro's Etc... Same for Vietnamese Bun dishes.. Goi cuon , Bun Thit Nuong, Cha Gio etc..

The Vietnamese have top tier soup offerings in Pho Ga or Bo Kho.

Better than Bouillon is good. It's a base in base form, in that dry and wet ingredients are mixed.

Pure broth is still best. I sometimes cheat with added dry bouillons to my own base, but normally that is only needed if you get the wet to dry ratio wrong. Soup excels with patience. The dry base is often your flavor, then you slowly disperse the lipids into liquids. The role of the dry base flours and starches it absorb the flavors and fats to be remade into liquid broth. Vinegar is more scrumptious than water, but you can't go straight vinegar without being horrid. You also can't have it oily by over compensating your lipids. That's why vinegar is the sword that cuts between both wet and dry, creating good broth. Acid, oil, powder. Prefer corn starch to flours. I have found rye flour to be nice in certain soups though.

I've made a lot of soup and thought about it too much.

So I went to Disneyland with the family yesterday. (Hate what the company has become but the parks are still great to hop into for a few hours of once or twice a month)

I've always been curious about a grilled cheese/tomato soup combo. I've never had tomato soup before. Shit was delicious. I don't think I'd ever eat the soup by itself, but as a dipping sauce I am a believer.

I wonder if you and @Stouffers rubbed butts.
 
We lucked out. We somehow did Thunder Mountain RR, Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted House, Tea Cups, Dumbo, Space Mountain, Little Mermaid, Jungle Cruise and met two princesses in just 6 hours. I was able to use the lightning line for all but "Meet Belle" and tea cups.

We plan to hit the rest and let the kids meet the remaining characters tomorrow.
