We lit the solid fuel range stove in the kitchen this morning. So I decided to make some soup. The onions have already been picked and live in a stainless steel bowl in the utility room. The Kale Triffids are turning into tree trunks in ye olde polytunnel.
We (me and the wife) had a lively and heated discussion yesterday about the Kale polytunnel crop not being harvested and ate. I was told that I only want the space for "MORE BLOODY" plant cuttings! Am I really that obvious? I did plant some potatoes in the tunnel and (hopefully) will be ready for Christmas. Did you say Christmas Dave? Wonder what else one can grow other than plants and shrub cuttings? Maybe VEGETABLES even!
Here's the soup in the pan on the range:
Do you have any soup recipes? Anybody make Mulligatawny soup? That's another product from the British Empire along with Snooker and Piccalilli and IPA.
Hope you're well and keeping warm and dry?

What's in that kale soup, beside kale and onions? I have a bag of kale in my fridge that would be happy not to be sauteed.
ReplyDeleteJust a knob of butter to help caramelise the onions and some salt and pepper. Some people blend or liquidise the ingredients but I just eat it like it is. Takes me back to when I was young and every pub in Ireland would have a sign up saying: Soup and Sandwiches. They always had a big pan of soup on the go. The sandwiches would be ham with mauve be cress. My mother would ask for a cup of tea. Great food and lovely memories. I am going to make some more Kale soup today. It's full of iron. Thanks for commenting Joanne.
ReplyDeleteIf you are selling, I'm buying! No shop where I live sell high quality soup.
ReplyDeleteHi Valerie. You don't seem to see plain and traditional food for sale these days so much do you? I am sure my grandparents ate bacon and cabbage every day. At least it seemed so when we visited them on our Irish holidays. You don't see silver service restaurants much either. Even the railway carriages use to have silver service. Perhaps we should start a traditional food movement? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI have my potatoes in and hope they are ready for christmas as well.
ReplyDeleteHi Sol. Won't it be great if we have new potatoes for Christmas dinner? Fingers crossed.
