...before they throw it away.


Made a killer Gulf Shrimp Creole yesterday. My wife wanted soup. She conceded. Caught her in the fridge at midnight going for thirds.

<span style="color: #000099">I could not agree more. We've friends who stockpile leftovers for a
week, toss the mess into a large kettle and make "soup" that they eat for
several more days.


YUCK</span>
 
I make a KILLER bean *soup* I'll have ya know.

...'course it can nearly be eaten with a fork... :laugh:
 
Must be that time of year...Opened the fridge last evening to start dinner and didn't have enough of any one thing but mixed together....chicken vegetable soup! Yum!
Called my Dad and Mom to see if they would like to come by for some....guess what they were making! :smile:

Cold weather.....leftovers....time to clean the fridge...
Its soup time!
 
There was a Hotel in Gualala California, on the north coast, that started a soup every week. Each day they added to a soup the left overs (excess stuff not sold). The soup grew and grew, you never really knew what it was going to be, other then delicious.

Reminds me of Johnny's Pizza in N. Louisiana. Don't know if they're still around, but their "signature" pizza was called "Sweep the Kitchen"!
 
just made another pot of stock from the second turkey 24lb we cooked in three days, now it goes into the freezer to be used for whatever down the road.
 
This is just so disgusting to read.

I love soup!! I go to the store and purchase fresh
ingredients to make soup. I like my soup.

Throwing, moldy, old, weeks old, various, leftovers
into a pot and adding heat and seasonings is disgusting
beyond words.

Sorry if I offend anyone.

Soup is something I make "on purpose" and is fresh;
not filled with who knows what bacteria.

I don't think anyone puts mouldy old leftovers in their soup Dale, The stock I made is the turkey from yesterday in the pot with 8-10 cups of water,2 quartered onions,2 carrots cut up and 3 stalks of celery cut up and some poultry seasoning, it is boiled for 2-3 hours to render the bird then strained until only the liquid remains then the liquid is frozen to be used in soups or stews later on instead of using plain water, and all the rest is sent for composting. The veggies in any of my soups are always fresh(or as fresh as they can be from the store)

What sort of an attitude is that? :devilgrin: :jester:

No wonder people are losing their "natural" immunity to disease and piddlin' lil bugs.... :devilgrin:


My daughter tosses anything past its "sell-by" date on general principles... She thinks its some kind of "law" rather than a guideline and that good sense (and a working nose and eyes) are also needed. Some things I'll chance (canned goods particularly; but not if the tin shows inner pressure) others I'd avoid (raw chicken and seafood most especially!), even if their sell-by date says they're still edible.
 
I just turned a large pot of left over chicken soup into an even larger pot of minestrone soup.
Dale just because it was left over doesn't mean spoiled! Soup is almost always better the second day.

I let my beef age 4-7 days beyond the sell date. If I can't smell it, it ain't ready to eat....

I do not do that with poultry, pork, or fish.
 
They used to let pheasant hang until it was "aged".

It is easier to find the pellets that way. :laugh:
 
They used to fall out before the bird dropped off the neck :thumbsup:
 
James Clavelle tried to explain that.
 
I was raised in a small town neighborhood grocery store and meat market (and bar, but that is another story). Times were tough and there was not a lot of extras. The food we ate was what we did not sell. I never ate any pork chops or beef steak or pork neck bones or chicken (we were careful here) until it had a nice, sticky glaze on it. Hence, soup is what you do with food before you throw it away. Ain't dead yet, but working on it.

Some of the bests soups in the kitchen are what the market will sell to you super discounted because it is too limp or discolored to sell to the soccer moms.
