A Home Baked Loaf And Some Smallholding Soup.

 

Odlums soda bread mix.  If you had the Smellavision app you would be in Heaven!

Talk about: "If I had know you were coming I'd have baked a cake or even a loaf of bread?"

Tomatoes 🍅 sown and grown by yours truly.  Leeks sown and grown by me again.  🥔 Potatoes of a organic variety bought from J in Lidl. 
Potato, tomato and leek soup and a slice of home baked bread 🍞. 

Yours truly prepared the vegetables and J baked the bread.  I even had some veg peelings left over for the rabbits tea.

We didn't liquidise the soup.  J said it was a bit too "tomatoey".  I said it was too "Potatoey".  She agreed.  Are they words?  Well they are now!

Anyone else been making their own soup?

"Blessed are the "Cheese makers"

Or was it the "Soup maker's?"

  1. Perhaps liquidising the soup would have made it less tomatoey and potatoey ... just sludgey? Tasty though.

  2. True JayCee. It was more: "It's what you need. Not what you like?" The tomatoes/tomatos gave a baked beans like reaction to ones digestion. I think I may have said: " New shoes vicar?". 😊 It would have made a good stew if we added some meat. The bread was delicious. I can understand why they bake bread fresh every day in France.

  3. Only for me JayCee. I blame it on my heavy use of condiments like HP sauce and sometimes a hot chilli sauce. I like it: " Hot, hot, hot!"

  4. We had leek and potato soup, using home grown leeks with homemade bread, nothing taste better.

  5. Ambrosia for ye gods Marlene. The frost really helped convert the starches to sugars. You can't buy that freshness in the the shops can you? Leek and potato soup is probably my favourite soup at the moment. Thanks!
