This is one of our family's favorite recipes, %26amp; has been for many years. Even people who have told me they don't like cabbage have changed their minds when they try my Mom's cabbage stew. Hope you give it a try!





MY MOM’S DELICIOUS CABBAGE STEW





1 lg. head of cabbage


3 to 4 cans diced tomatoes


hot water


2 1/2 lb. ground chuck, raw


salt %26amp; pepper, to taste


garlic powder, to taste





Separate whole cabbage leaves from the head %26amp; cook in a large pot about half full of salted boiling water. Boil the leaves just long enough to make them pliable. SAVE THE WATER. In your hands, roll the ground chuck into whatever size meatballs you wish. Wrap each uncooked meatball with a slightly cooled cabbage leaf, inserting a wooden toothpick into each “bundle” so it won’t come unwrapped during cooking. Drop all the meat bundles back into the saved cabbage-water. Add the canned tomatoes, salt, pepper, %26amp; garlic powder. Cover %26amp; bring to a boil, reduce heat, %26amp; continue cooking until cabbage %26amp; meat is done to your liking.





An easier, but not so unique, way to prepare this stew: In large pot, add cabbage (cut into bite size pieces) %26amp; just enough water to barely cover the cabbage. Crumble the raw ground chuck into the pot, then add the tomatoes %26amp; seasoning. Cover %26amp; bring to a boil, reduce heat, %26amp; continue cooking until cabbage %26amp; meat is done to your liking.





Whichever way you choose to make this stew, it is made even more delicious by serving it with cold milk or iced tea, %26amp; buttered garlic bread, or fried bread (see recipes in Index). Leftovers are great reheated or used in vegetable soup.
Cabbage and potatoes, salt and pepper to taste. Do not eat this and go to a social gathering because cabbage is a known bang-bang maker.
1 package Lipton soup mix


2 Bouillon cubes for flavoring


1 stick Celery (not the whole stalk) - diced


1/2 Head of green cabbage - diced


3 Carrots - sliced


2 Bell peppers - any color - sliced


6 Large green onions, or 1 large yellow, white or purple onion - diced


2 cans Tomatoes - either diced or whole


Cooking Spray





Preparation


Salt, pepper, parsley, garlic powder to taste. Use any seasoning that you like to add flavor.





Spray large pot with cooking spray. Saute onions, peppers and carrots until tender. Add cabbage and about 12 cups of water. Toss in bullion cubes, soup mix and seasonings. Cook until soup reaches desired tenderness; add tomatoes.
I put cabbage, onions and ham and boil. I tried corned beef but it was greasy
Quarter and core a head of cabbage. Add 1 can corned beef - it's pretty salty, so be careful adding more). Then boil the hell out of it and you've got some simply, tasty soup.

Anyone got a really good cream of mushroom soup recipe?

We've somehow ended up with pounds of mushrooms and I can't think of anything better to do with them all... A freezable recipe would be particularly appreciated!Anyone got a really good cream of mushroom soup recipe?
OK skidoo I am not the most elegant of cooks so mine recipe is going to look a bit navvy-ish!





However it is based on one in Lindsey Barehams soup book which is the last word in all things soup. Well Nigel Slater and me think so ;)





1. Chop as many mushrooms as you want to get rid of.


2. Fry with a crushed garlic glove ( what fat you use is irrelevant..butter will make it richer a squirt of olive oil healthier!)


3. Here's the odd bit.....soak a slice of white bread in milk. add to pan when thoroughly soaked and then top up to cover all the mushrooms with milk . Or half milk and half water depending on how virtuous you want this.


4. Add stock. I like the Marigold bouillon but then I'm a lazy cow.simmer for only a few minutes.


5.Whizz it all up- depending on your mushrooms will vary the colour from beige to brown- if you want a really pale soup you will need to add cream but i would do this on use IE after the freezing although it doesn't really matter.


6. Those pour and store bags are brilliant for freezing soups!Anyone got a really good cream of mushroom soup recipe?
This one is pretty simple %26amp; tasty %26amp; freezable:








1 pound firm white mushrooms, cleaned


1 medium lemon


1 tablespoon unsalted butter


2 tablespoons minced shallots


1/4 teaspoon dried thyme


1/2 bay leaf


1 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper


2 cups heavy cream


1 1/2 cups chicken stock


1 teaspoon cornstarch, dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water


1 tablespoon minced parsley


Directions


Sprinkle the mushrooms with lemon juice. In a food processor, coarsely chop them.





Melt the butter in a heavy saucepan and lightly saute the shallots. Add the mushrooms, thyme, and bay leaf and saute over moderate heat for 10 minutes, or until the liquid disappears. Add the salt, pepper, cream, and chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.





Add the cornstarch to the soup and continue to simmer 10 minutes longer, stirring constantly. Correct seasoning to taste.





Serve in warm bowls. Sprinkle with minced parsley.

MUSHROOM SOUP





Serves 2





INGREDIENTS





125g of closed cup mushrooms


陆 a potato


陆 an onion


1 tablespoon of sunflower oil


350ml of milk


陆 a teaspoon of dried parsley


陆 a teaspoon of dried thyme


Ground pepper to taste





METHOD





Wipe the mushrooms clean. Cut the ends off the stalks. Peel the potato, cut it in half and cut any nasty bits and eyes out of one half, and save the other half. Peel the onion, cut it in half, chop one half into tiny pieces and save the other half.





Put the oil into a saucepan on a medium heat. Fry the onion for about 2 minutes until it is transparent. Stir frequently to stop it sticking.





Add the potato and mushrooms, and cook, stirring all he time, for another 2 minutes. Add the milk and herbs.





Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat until it is just boiling (simmering). Put the lid on the saucepan and continue to cook for 20 minutes.





If you have a food processor, put the soup in it and blend it to the desired consistency. If you have a hand blender, put it in the soup and blend it to the desired consistency. If you don鈥檛 have a food processor or hand blender, use a potato masher, press the soup through a sieve with the back of a spoon, or leave it lumpy.





Season with the pepper.





Continue to cook for another couple of minutes.





ADDITIONS %26amp; ALTERNATIVES





You could use button mushrooms instead of closed cup mushrooms, but they are more expensive, You could use open cup mushrooms, but the brown undersides will discolour the soup.





Use oregano instead of thyme.





Remove some of the mushrooms before blending, finely chop them and put them back in afterwards.
Hi -





I am sending you a link that will give you over 3,000 recipes for your pounds of mushrooms! I wasn't sure if there was anything else besides soup you were interested in, (pasta sauce, quiche, stuffed mushrooms, etc.) so take a look...you may find something other than soup that strikes your fancy! Have Fun!
put the cream of mushroom around some chicken breast in a 13 X 9 inch pan...stick it in the oven at about 350, bout half an hour later make some stove top in a pan, pour that on top of the chicken and stick it back in the oven for another 1/2 hour.
You can always saute the mushrooms and put them over steak :)
How about doing something good in your community for once by making mushroom soup for homeless people?
If I have excess mushrooms I make up some packet mushroom soup mix and add the mushrooms.


Very quick and extra tasty!

French onion soup recipe and history?

I am doing a project in french and am making french onion soup. Does anyone know any good recipes for it and any history on it? I've made it before by putting onions, water and beef bouillion (sp?) cubes in a crock pot and letting it sit over night. I did that a few years ago for school and everyone liked it but I was just wondering if there's another way of making it.French onion soup recipe and history?
Onion soups have been popular at least as far back as Roman times. They were, throughout history, seen as food for the poor people, as onions were plentiful and easy to grow. The modern version of this soup originates in France in the 17th century,[1] made from dry bread or croutons, beef broth, and caramelized onions. It is often broiled in a ramekin traditionally with gruy猫re melted on top. The crouton on top is reminiscent of ancient sops (see ';Early history'; section of soup).





Legend has it that the soup was created by King Louis XV of France. Late one night, he discovered he only had onions, butter and champagne at his hunting lodge, so he mixed them together to create the first French onion soup.[2] Alternate stories attribute the creation to King Louis XIV.[3]





10 medium yellow onions (about 4 1/2 pounds) , halved, peeled, and thinly sliced


2 tablespoons olive oil


2 tablespoons sugar


1 teaspoon dried thyme


Coarse salt and ground pepper


3 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth


3/4 cup dry red wine


FOR CHEESE TOAST (OPTIONAL)


4 slices toasted multigrain bread


4 ounces sliced Swiss cheese





Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large roasting pan, toss together onions, oil, sugar, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cover tightly with foil; cook until steamed, about 30 minutes. Uncover; cook, stirring every 30 minutes, until onions are golden brown and caramelized, 1 to 1 1/4 hours more.


Transfer onion mixture to a large saucepan (reserve roasting pan); stir in broth and 6 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until liquid has darkened, about 20 minutes.


Meanwhile, deglaze the roasting pan with wine: Place the pan over medium heat; add wine. Scrape bottom of pan with a wooden spoon or scraper to loosen any browned bits. Simmer until reduced and syrupy, about 2 minutes. Pour liquid (and browned bits) into soup. Season with salt and pepper. (If freezing, let cool completely before transferring to airtight containers, leaving 1 inch at top.)


If desired, make the cheese toast: Heat broiler. Place bread on a baking sheet; top with Swiss cheese. Broil until cheese is bubbly and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Cut each slice into four triangles.


To serve, divide soup among bowls; garnish each with two triangles of cheese toast, if desired.French onion soup recipe and history?
Not really sure how to make that.





You should check out http://www.highclassrecipes.com





I saw some good soup recipes there.
your method seems fine by me..


I believe it started with lightly scorching onions in a dab of butter or drippings from a roast ,,in a cast iron iron pot..


then adding a meat broth (today adding some Kitchen Bouquet) and coarsely chopped white onions..
the key to good French onion soup is patience,


cook 4 cups of thinly sliced onions and 1/4 t salt in 1/4 cups BUTTER...cook on very low heat until onions are caramelized ,


add 6 cups of strong broth (if you are using cubes...use 8)


add a bay leaf and let simmer an hour.








There is a produce that I have found called ';better than bouillon';


which is made from condensed beef juice,,,, this is much better than those salt licks aka bouillon cubes.

Substituting green onions in a Hot and Sour Soup Recipe?

The recipe calls for 5 chopped scallions or green onions. I forgot to get them when I went to the grocery store. I have regular onions in my pantry and also dried chives. Would either of these work, and how much should I substitute?





Thanks!Substituting green onions in a Hot and Sour Soup Recipe?
5 chopped scallions is about one good sized regular onion. And yes, I would add about a tablespoon of the dried chives. I think it will come out great.


.Substituting green onions in a Hot and Sour Soup Recipe?
I personally am particular on it being the green onion so I wouldn't substitute either. Not the same. I am a BIG fan of hot and sour soup. I'll have to look for the recipe.. Hope you enjoy yours no matter what you decide.
It could work if you are not serving for a major party.


If I were you maybe I would put them first in the freezer in a ziplock bag so the flavor sits in for a while. If you have any other seasonings you can mix them in the ziplock bag when you take them out of the freezer. Slice them Juliane style really thin and long. I have never substituted things before but I hate going back to the store.. Season it up. You got to do what you got to do. It is your own creation, you are the cook.


Email me and let me know how it turned out to be...


Good luck do not sweat.


Creation is beautiful! Professionals do that all the time!


jaykay31@yahoo.com


www.foodnetwork.com
I really don't think it will taste the same. The regular onion is much stronger than the green onions. If you have to make it tonight, I would recommend using perhaps 1 tablespoon of very finely chopped onion. Fresh chives would be a good substitute for the green onions but the dried chives don't usually have much flavor. You could throw some dried chives in for a little flavor and green color - perhaps 2 teaspons.
I always have dried chives in my cupboard just in case...........I use that when I don't have green onions

Veal and Mushroom Stew over Mascarpone Ravioli Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2005





2 tablespoons olive oil


1 pound ground veal


1 teaspoon salt


1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


1 cup finely chopped onions


1 pound assorted exotic mushrooms, cleaned and stemmed


2 tablespoons minced shallots


1/2 cup peeled, seeded, and chopped tomatoes


2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon chopped garlic


2 cups veal reduction


2 tablespoons butter


1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves


8 ounces mascarpone cheese


2 tablespoons chiffonade fresh basil leaves


32 squares fresh pasta (3 by 3 inches) such as wonton wrappers


4 ounces grated Parmigiano-Reggiano


Chopped fresh chives, for garnish





Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan, over medium heat. Season the veal with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Add the veal to the pan and brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the onions and saute for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released most of their liquid. Add the shallots and tomatoes and cook for 2 minutes. Add the 2 tablespoons of garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the veal reduction and bring the liquid up to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 6 to 8 minutes. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the butter and parsley. Set aside and keep warm.


Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. In a mixing bowl, combine the cheese, remaining teaspoon of garlic, remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper and basil. Mix well. Divide the cheese mixture evenly among the centers of each of 16 squares of the fresh pasta. With a little water, lightly wet the edges of the pasta. Place the remaining pasta squares over the cheese. Press the 2 squares of pasta together tightly, then crimp using the tines of a fork to seal the ravioli completely. Place the ravioli in the boiling water, in batches if necessary, and cook until tender, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the water and drain completely.





To serve, place 2 ravioli in the center of each shallow bowl. Spoon the stew over the pasta. Garnish with the cheese and chives.Mushroom Soup/Pasta Recipes??
Sure. Cook up your favorite pasta and add the mushroom soup. If you have a can of mushrooms, add those too. If you have some ground beef(cooked)toss that in. Add Green peppers and onions to the whole thing. The possibilities are endless.
make tuna fish casserole:


can cream of mushroom soup


tuna, drained and bones removed


pasta slightly undercook


sliced mushrooms, fresh or canned


peas, frozen or canned





cook the soup thick as you can then, cook the pasta then baked the casserole in an oven.
Ingredients:





1 box of spaghetti


4 cups of washed and diced portabella mushrooms


2 cloves of garlic, grated


3 tbsp of olive oil


1 tsp of vinegar


4 tbsp of Parmesan cheese


3 tbsp of mushroom soup


Salt and pepper


water


Directions:





Boil water for the pasta


Sautee the garlic in the olive oil.


Add the mushroom and vinegar.


Sautee for another 6 minutes.


Add the soup and salt and pepper to taste.


Simmer for another 3-5 minutes.


Add the spaghetti to the water.


Boil for 9-11 minutes.


Strain the pasta and add it to the mushroom sauce.


Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over top
Onions would make a difference to the meal, if you just poured soup over the pasta. I like adding chopped onion, uncooked, to the pasta before pouring the soup over it. If you don't have anything else to add, just make the soup as thick as you can, maybe add a little black pepper, which does a lot for a plain meal.

    Fresh Tomato Soup





    Once you try this delightful version of tomato soup with just a hint of citrus and the perfume of basil, you'll swear off canned tomato soup for good.





    1/4 cup olive oil


    2 large yellow onions, diced


    1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest


    18 ripe Roma tomatoes, quartered


    Heavy cream


    Salt and pepper to taste


    Fresh basil leaves





    Using a heavy saucepan set over medium heat, saut茅 onions in olive oil, stirring occasionally until tender and translucent, about 10 to 12 minutes.


    Stir in orange zest and tomatoes and continue to cook over medium heat stirring occasionally to prevent scorching, about 20 minutes or until the tomatoes have broken down and rendered much of their liquid.


    Puree soup in batches using either a food processor or blender. Then strain the mixture through a food mill or medium mesh sieve placed over a clean saucepan, discard remaining peel and seeds. Reheat soup mixture gently over medium-low heat, season with salt and pepper. Add heavy or light cream to taste (anywhere from 1/2 cup to 1 1/2 cups or until you achieve the consistency and flavor you desire.) Season to taste.


    Just before serving (about 1-2 minutes before) add fresh basil, torn into small pieces to the soup.Anyone got any real good recipes for homemade tomato soup? My bumper grobag crop is ready?

    Homemade tomato soup








    August 2, 2000








    You can make the recipe through the puree stage and freeze that part until you want to make the soup. Defrosted and warmed, the puree can serve as a lighter tomato soup without the final butter and cream enrichments.








    Makes 4 to 6 servings








    1 tablespoon oil


    8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter


    1 large onion, thinly sliced


    3 pounds fresh tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped, including juices


    2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme


    1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves or 1 teaspoon dried basil


    1 teaspoon salt


    1/4 teaspoon black pepper


    4 cups vegetable broth (see note)


    1/4 cup all-purpose flour


    1 cup heavy (whipping) cream


    1 or 2 pinches of sugar (optional)


    Croutons, for garnish








    1. Place the oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large, heavy soup pot and heat until the butter melts. Add the onion and saute over medium heat until soft, about 8 minutes.








    2. Add the tomatoes, thyme, basil, salt and pepper, and stir to mix. Bring to a boil and cook over medium heat until the tomatoes have collapsed, 6 to 8 minutes.








    3. While the tomatoes cook, heat 1/2 cup of the broth until beginning to boil. Whisk in the flour to make a smooth paste.








    4. Add the flour paste and the remaining broth to the pot and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the flour is cooked. Remove and cool enough to handle.








    5. Puree the mixture in a food processor or food mill. Return to the soup pot and stir in the cream, the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and the sugar, if using. Heat the soup without boiling and serve right away, garnished with the croutons.








    Note: To make vegetable broth, combine 1-1/2 pounds coarsely chopped tomatoes; an onion, unpeeled and quartered; 2 or more cloves garlic; 2 celery ribs, including tops, cut up a bit; 2 carrots, scrubbed and cut up a bit; 2 good handfuls of shredded greens, such as chard, spinach or kale; another handful of fresh parsley; a bay leaf; and a good pinch of salt to bring out the flavors. To these basics, you can add some chunks of summer squash or other herbs, such as cilantro, thyme, oregano or marjoram. Place all these ingredients in a large pot and add 4 quarts water. Bring to a boil over medium heat (this will take some time), reduce the heat to a simmer and partially cover. Cook for 1 to 1-1/2 hours, until the broth is well colored and no longer watery looking. Cool, strain and use right away or refrigerate for up to 5 days. May be frozen for longer.





    Good luck ;)
    Why kept it just to soup? Try it with a nice salad.
    foodtv.com... i think so go yahoo ';food network'; great food
    http://www.tomato-cages.com/tomato-soup-鈥?/a>





    Here's some for you.
    Liquidise tomatoes in a blender. Fry fine chopped onions lightly. Pour over tomatoes. Add tomato paste and a quarter teaspoon of sugar. Season. Stir well. Warm through. Remove from heat. Then add fresh chopped basil and stir through some fresh cream and serve.





    To look nicer in the bowl top with a swirl of cream and spinkle over some salt and ground coarse pepper. Garnish with a sprig of basil. Nice with sliced buttered french loaf.
    this has gotta be the simplest recipe out there...couple tins plum tomatoes in the blender,small tub double cream,small handfull of chopped fresh basil and salt and pepper,whizz ,heat and serve with crusty bread(preferably with cheese on it!)


    p.s,strain through a seive to get rid of any seeds..
    This isn't exactly an answer to your recipe question, but, as incredible as it sounds, it works great! It will allow you to store those tomatoes until you are ready to whip up a batch of soup, pasta sauce, chili or whatever!


    Here goes:


    Without washing them, place them individually in the freezer. When frozen, transfer to a storage container and keep them frozen.


    When you need tomatoes for recipes, take out the required number and drop them into a bowl of cold water.


    The skins will slide right off and you can dice, chop, slice them with ease (not messy , either, as the juice is frozen inside the tomato.)


    Proceed with cooking your recipe.
    500g (1lb) tomatoes fresh


    500 mo (lpint) stock juice from the can or stock cube


    1 small streaky bacon rasher


    1 tablespoon margarine


    1 small onions


    1 small carrot


    salt and pepper


    nutmeg,. sugar and lemon juice to taste


    bunch of mixed herbs.





    Fry bacon for a few minutes, then fat steam the onion, and carrot in bacon fat and maragine before adding the tomatoes.





    Cook raw tomatoes in the fat fo a few mins. then add the liquidsimmer the soup 1 hour.





    Rob it through a nylon sieve.





    Note. Except when outdor, home grown tomatoes are at their cheapest, a better flavoured and more econonnnmical sup if made from canned tomatoes than fresh ones.
    Yes, this one is really easy and yummy!


    Make a roux with flour and marge or butter. add diced uo tomatoes, add about 1 pint veg stock, simmer slowly for an hour or so season with salt and pepper and is desired a little sugar, mix well with a blender, type thing, and enjoy.


    PS this one works really well with tinned tomatoes as well, I usually use 2 tins and they are really cheap, the cooking time with tinned ones is reduced to about 1/2
    I usually peel the tomatoes and add 2 butternut squash's which have been peeled and de-seeded, blend then in a blender (if you dont have a blender you can boil the butternut squash for about 20-25 mins and mash until like a paste, still peel the tomatoes and mash aswell), add some fresh parsley (not dried) and simmer in a pan for about 10-15 mins...It'll warm you up a treat especially with the autumn weather coming





    You can substitute butternut squash for sweet potato or pumkin, or carrots
    Try these-and lucky you!

    Black bean recipes? No soup?

    Spinach and black bean lasagna. This is also good if you are vegetarian as there is no meat added (though it could be). I would add 2 chopped green peppers to the tomato sauce, personally, but this recipe is the one I use.

    I would make two pans, just to be sure you'd have enough, but it's not very difficult or expensive.Black bean recipes? No soup?
    I totally love black beans and rice. I make a pot of basmati rice. Then saute onions, garlic, jalapenos or pickled ones, and red bell peppers in a little oil, then add a can or two of drained and rinsed black beans, a quarter cup of white vinegar, and about 10 splashes of hot sauce. When it's cooked down a bit, I stir in 3 cups of the rice.





    It's good on its own, or even better stuffed in tortillas with cheese and served with green salsa and sour cream, or turned into enchiladas with a sauce.Black bean recipes? No soup?

    the water which was used to boil the black beans can be used for a vegetable stew, if u don;t mind the black color.
    Make ';Red beans and rice,'; or ';dirty rice.'; They are a beloved staple in the southern U.S., especially places like New Orleans. Black beans are certainly a good substitute for pinto and kidney beans, as well as black-eyed peas.

    What Kind of Beer is Best for Beer CHEESE Soup? Light or Dark? Any Recipes?

    I make beer cheese soup at work, and by far the best beer to use is killians. You should not use any light beers because they are too watery tasting. Here are a couple of good recipes.











    Cheese and Beer Soup





    Ingredients





    (1 servings)





    1 c Finely chopped bacon


    1/2 Green bell pepper, chopped fine


    1/2 c Chopped celery


    1/2 md Onion, chopped fine


    2/3 c Flour


    1 Stick butter


    3 qt Milk


    1 Pimiento, drained and chopped


    1 c Chicken bouillon


    1/2 ts Garlic powder


    1 1/2 lb Cheddar cheese, grated


    1/2 lb Provolone cheese, grated


    1/2 c Beer (medium, such as killians)


    1/4 c Chopped parsley


    Salt and pepper to taste








    Instructions





    Cook bacon until crisp, remove from pan and reserve. In about 3/4 tsp) (2 oz.) of the bacon drippings, saute bell pepper, onion and celery. Make a roux by mixing flour and butter over a warm burner of the stove. When it starts to brown, add milk slowly, mixing all the while.


    Add the mixture of sauted vegetables, bacon, pimiento, bouillon, and garlic powder. Heat over medium heat. (High will scorch milk). When the milk mixture reaches a medium temperature, add the cheeses and stir until cheeses liquefy.


    Add beer to the soup. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. Just before removing soup from stove, mix in parsley for color. Add salt and pepper to taste.


    Freezes well.


    Makes 1 gallon or 10 servings.

    Yield: 8 servingsWhat Kind of Beer is Best for Beer CHEESE Soup? Light or Dark? Any Recipes?
    Light beer. It shouldn't be an ale, it should be a lager.





    Try recipe source, the link is below.





    http://www.recipesource.com/What Kind of Beer is Best for Beer CHEESE Soup? Light or Dark? Any Recipes?
    Split the difference and use redwolf. Try it both ways and see which one you like best.
    Go with a dark beer. I used to make beer bread to go with soups using Killian's (not that it's really dark) and it was really good - I imagine that a dark beer would be the perfect compliment.
    Pick an amber or brown ale. It will give you a richer flavor than a light beer like a pilsner or lager. Stout or porter (very dark beers) would be too heavy.
    Go for Molson porter or Cuzque帽a pilsener, they go well with brie or butter cheese. Even go farther and use white pepper, stragon, thime and rosemary, adding sausages and milk. Avoid tofu and horseradish, can tell you wont like them.

    Looking for very basic ham and bean soup recipe?

    My grandma used to make the best ham and bean soup. She now has Alzheimers disease and cannot remember how to make it anymore; of course she never wrote her recipes down either! Her family was very poor when she was growing up and her mother used to make this bean soup. There are very few ingrediants, I am just not sure of the measurements for the most part. From what I remember it had: Beans (Northern or white I believe), ham, stock of some sort, a bay leaf ( I think) salt and pepper, and either a very mashed potato, or some of the beans were mashed to thicken a bit. Maybe a bit of milk? No other veggies at all that I can remember. She also would put dumplings in it too, which was especially yummy! Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated!

    1 bag cut frozen broccoli (small bag)


    1-8oz. pkg. cream cheese


    1/2 block Velveeta cheese


    2 cans evaporated milk
