My
kitchen is steadily filling up with random implements that I'd never
thought of buying when I first moved in. I've recently bought a ladle
for soup dishes such as this one, and I'll also need to buy a
tablespoon. It's not a large kitchen.
Anyway.
I made this soup with my soup maker yesterday, from the manufacturer's
cookbook.
Other
problems: Tesco were out of stock of water chestnuts, whatever the
hell they are, and my jug was too small for 750ml of stock. The
recipe required the creation of a paste which jumped from too thick
to too thin with a tiny drop of water. Micing this turned it too
thick again, which made it hard to “evenly distribute” over the
other ingredients. Also, I didn't read the instructions through
before starting. Don't assume the author has completely forgotten the
spring onions and just dump them in the soup maker. They're for adding
after cooking. Oops.
It
was a good substantial soup though.
