I'm trying to up my veg intake & find this a good way of doing it.
I could live on broth & shellfish. Not at the same time of course.
My nanna fed us loads of it when we were kids.
Making stuff with battery chicken carcasses, you might as well go and collect a few pigeons from the nearest town centre.
Get a gammon shank from Jacky Whites Market.
Give it a 10 minute boil in the pressure cooker, then when it's cooled down cut the fat off and bin it.
Cut the meat off the bone. Chop it into smallish pieces.
Back to the pressure cooker with the bones for 30 minutes.
meanwhile,
Grate up - 3 large carrots + 1 small turnip and chop 3 or 4 leeks.
Remove the bones and bin them. What's left is the basic stock.
Add the veg plus whatever pulses you use, (or soup mix) and water. Then add the meat
Another half hour or so in the pressure cooker.
I finish off with some boiled potatoes, chopped and 4 Knorr stock cubes plus black pepper with some Worcester sauce. Boil again for a few minutes. Keep stirring or it might stick.
Recently I've taken to breaking some spaghetti into one inch lengths and boiling this separately, sieving it then adding to the mixture. (If you don't wash it, it thickens things too much).
Eat with lots of crusty bread.

Aye, but these recipes are handed down from generations previously. Kids will open a tin of sludge veg soup full of God knows what rather than be arsed to do a home-made pot of goodness.
Maybe, that's another debate.
I wasn't trying to spoil the thread, you ladies crack on.
It's just soup innit.
A thread about soup recipes.
I've just eaten two home made chicken burgers, corn fed chickens, avocado, spicy home made marinade.
No slurping in sight.
I've never eaten/drank a soup and thought it was amazing, it's just soup. It's not cos I've never had good soup, it's cos it's just soup.
