Four Foods For Friday 109

Hm, here we are, discussing chicken soup. It seems that some folks have had colds recently, eh? Hope you’re better!

Name four of the primary ingredients that YOU use to make chicken soup.

I don’t make chicken soup all that much. I am not a soup eater (unless we are really low on food). I hear it’s really good for you– protein, helps when you’re sick, etc etc anti wrinkle cream, etc etc.. many more marvels… I just don’t like the stuff. But I have made it, and it’s *tolerable.* Barely, lol.

Four primary ingredients, huh? Ummm…

1. Chicken. (I know, DUH, lol) I don’t use breasts or special cuts for soup, though– I make it with the stock I’ve made from a carcass.
2. Onions. A must, otherwise the soup is intolerably bland.
3. Seasoning of some sort. Has to be full of pep. Right now I’m using a lot of the Salamida Pinch Seasoning, it’s very good.
4. White northern beans.

I may also add black beans (well rinsed) if I want real variety.

So, sorry! My meme this week was pretty dull and bland– a lot like my chicken soup!! Hey, Val, let’s talk Italian when you’re feeling better, eh?
