Today marks the first snowfall of 2012 and the first snow of the season. This weather is perfect for staying in, building a fire, and snuggling up with your loved ones(furry or human). As lovely as the before mentioned are, this is a food blog after all, and I attempt to stay true to that. The following is a short and sweet rambling about a wonderful concept that ANYONE can create no matter what their cooking ability.
Mmmm...Soup. If it wasn't clear from my last post, this is the time of year that I basically obsess about soup. There is nothing more filling, comforting, and heartwarming to me than soup. The picture below is the a bowl of my chicken matzo ball soup that I cooked up recently on a Sunday afternoon. The recipe consists of parsnips, carrots, celery, onion, a whole chicken, dill, parsley, and some other secret ingredients. What you come out with is a meal in a bowl that would make my Nana very proud. I created this recipe by combining recipes that both my Dad and Nana gave me. The result is pictured below and I am pretty damn proud of it!
I encourage everyone to get into the kitchen and see what you have in the pantry or fridge and I challenge you to create your very own custom soup. You will not be sorry! Happy eating to all, and to all, good eating!Oh yea!
Here are a few of my fave soups with recipes attached:
