A Thread Specifically About Soups

i'd make that

I plan on making a lot of soups this month. I want to use this protein-rich diet to start trying out weird cuts of meat I see at the carniceria down the street.

do you usually let it sit for a couple days?

i normally make it and let it simmer for a few hours..shut it down and leave it out to get back to room temp..throw it in the fridge, in the creuset, and bring it out the next day or day after..the flavors are so much better i find

My wife makes pozole pretty regularly, but we usually eat some that day, then finish it off on day 2. This is intriguing. Maybe I'll try to get her to make a double batch next time.

yeah, i make it quite often too...there are a few recipes i use as a guide but i just kind of do whatever and i always triple the cumin and garlic

I could really go for a she-crab soup today. I don't know where I would find a bowl here, but even if I did, I wouldn't be able to eat it.

love me some she crab soup. I have some local favorites here, Reid. You should come up.

How do you feel about the she-crab at Fleet Landing versus Henry's?

Henry's is better. Fleet Landing is kind of an overrated place, imo. Both old school Charleston places, but I like Henry's way better. But neither are the best in Charleston. The best I've had in Charleston would be either Hyman's or Hank's Seafood. My favorite of all time is at a place in Murrell's Inlet, SC, near where I used to live. But here in Wilmington we have some decent ones as well.

Last week I made some chicken stock and froze it. Tonight I wanted to clarify it so I could use it in a wonton soup. Clarifying soup with egg whites is one of those things I always knew how to do but hadn’t actually done in like a decade.

First time I went great but there wasn’t quite enough stock for three people so I added some veg stock from the fridge. Second round it was looking pretty good but I thought it could be clearer. Third time it boiled over. Flew too close to the sun.

Cold rainy day here. Made a delicious batch of mushroom and wild rice soup.

This was a great result and this recipe is being added to the fall soup staples.

sounds dope. I have a recipe found online that I’ve been meaning to make.

I used a combo of mushrooms we already had instead of just cremini, so baby bellas and white button.
I used just whole milk instead of half and half, and it was still plenty creamy

Next time I may add chicken. It didn't need it for taste but another protein in there might be nice.

The paprika is a nice touch to this.
