BOOK EXCERPT:
Long ago, in the days when the fire rarely was permitted to go out in the fireplace, or wood-burning stove, began the pot-a-feu (The Pot in the Fire). Into the simmering water were tossed edible scraps of vegetables, meat bones, herbs, and spices. As the pot gently simmered, ingredients and flavors blended into a delicious, and satisfying culinary masterpiece.
Today, the principle of soup making is the same. There is no limit to the ingredients available in today’s market. Blenders, food processors, and crock-pots are a big help. Soups may be clear, thick, light, hearty, hot, or cold, but their success depends on the flavor. The seasoning with herbs and spices makes for a truly great soup.
Thank you to family, friends, and our wonderful teachers for these recipes.
May the good Lord bless you and yours as appetites are satisfied with brimming bowls of soup!
