The official soup thread

[The_Tick]

Super easy. I generally make a dashi out of kombu. Basically buy some kombu (dried kelp) from your Asian market and boil it. Then take the kombu out. There is your dashi. I make an awase dashi too which is kombu and katsuobushi (bonito flakes). I've done it for homemade saimin and miso soup.

I can do that no problem.

How long do you boil?

Thanks. I've asked the mods to merge the threads.

It's not summer anymore.

Maybe not in Ohio.

I realize a stew is not a soup, but it seems close enough to include in this thread. I've really enjoyed this beef stew recipe and am making it this weekend.

I do make several changes to it though. Once everything is put together, I put it in the oven on low heat (about 225 to 275) and slow cook it for several hours. I also tend to substitute a cup of chicken stock for an extra cup of wine.

I'm also planning on making a few changes and incorporating some of this recipe into it.

If you want pho Asian food, go to PF Changs.

Isn't that faux Asian food?

Long enough that the kombu will soften. I score the kombu with a knife usually. The dashi will turn a yellowish color. When the kombu is soft and the broth is yellow I stop.

What about Gumbo? Do you have a good chicken & sausage gumbo recipe?

I made one last night in my new Instant Pot, with some random recipe I found online. All told, it took about an hour to cook and was quite tasty. A little research told me that putting tomatoes in gumbo is a no-no.

So my oldest informed me a few days ago that he is having 10-12 couples over on Saturday for homecoming and could we cook dinner. After bouncing some ideas for food he decided on turkey chili using the recipe from Deer Valley (as close to it as I could find on line). I’ve got a big pot simmering now. Smells great. I also have 9 pounds of rendered pork belly cooling in the fridge to make pork buns.

That's sounds delicious. Could you post the recipe for the chili?

Good timing. I also need to demoralize the chili competition on Saturday.

Last time I won pretty easily with my smoked pulled pork concoction (basically threw in some leftover smoked pulled pork, cauliflower and broccoli from the football viewing party the day before with a can or two of Nalley chili, a couple cans of other types of beans, frozen white corn, and a sampling of whatever spices were in the cupboard). My victory was not so much about how good my chili was but rather how inedible most everyone else's was.

I was going to roast a turkey breast but ran out of time. I bought a cooked turkey breast from Costco and cut it into cubes, which worked pretty well. I think you could use the Costco rotisserie chicken with similar results.
