Directions

I checked this great little book out of the library a couple days ago. It's called Simple Soups by Teresa Kennedy. Here are a few examples of her great sounding recipes!

Place all the ingredients in a large saucepan or stockpot and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour.

Strain the stock through a sieve or colander into another kettle. Return to the burner, turn heat to medium, and boil until the broth is reduced by one third. Use as desired, or divide into 2-cup portions and freeze for up to six months. Makes 10 cups, or enough for 3 to 4 batches of soup Posted to EAT-L Digest 20 Sep 96 From: Patricia Moore <PCPJMOOR@...> Date: Sat, 21 Sep 1996 15:40:45 -0700
