hot ham water?

arianell — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 01:07:01 -0800

I need recipes for tantalizing soups that freeze well. Bonus points for creativity. I've been invited to one of those nifty Soup Swap parties, and I want to knock everyone's socks off with 6 quarts of really interesting and delicious soup.

Ideally, I'd like to find a recipe that:
1.) doesn't require blending of any kind - I don't have an immersion blender, and I haven't had good luck with pureeing soup in the "normal" blender.
2.) is meatless - not a requirement, but I know there will be lots of vegetarians in attendance.
3.) is still delicious after freezing/thawing - obviously.

Thanks in advance!

Porkless and Pea Green

Looking at the earlier soup post, I thought I might make a nice split pea soup. Alas, I have no ham bone. I then thought I might like to try a good vegetarian version, but one of my favorite parts of the split pea experience is the salty smokey part of the soup-- which it gets from the ham. Does anyone have a good meatlovers vegetarian split pea soup recipe (if that makes sense)?

Nurse, get me 50cc's of miso onion soup, STAT!

I need the recipe for Whole Foods' miso onion soup. Like... now. Seriously. I had this soup for the first time today, and it is like unto a drug. I do not think I will be able to function properly this fall if I can not make a giant pot of it. It was quite possibly the best vegetarian onion soup I have had.

What I remember from looking at the ingredients on the placard: miso, vegetable stock, onions, bay leaf, salt, black pepper, flour, bay leaves. There were some smaller leaves in it, too. Parsley or thyme would be my guess.

I could experiment and experiment around these ingredients and maybe come up with something passable, but it is my hope that somebody, somewhere out there, has this recipe.

Please hope me, hive mind!

Yummy veggie noodle soup

Help me make the yummy vegetarian noodle soup that I crave. I love big bowls of clear soup with noodles, tofu, bok choi, bean sprouts broccoli, etc. What is in that broth? It's more flavorful than plain ol' veggie broth, but it's not a bisque or puree or anything. Recipes, suggestions, tips, etc. are all welcome.
