MMMMMSTOCK
1 All bones from roast turkey
7 cup Water
1 Bay leaf
1 Stalk celery, chopped
1 Onion, quartered
MMMMMSOUP
1/4 cup Broken noodles, 1/2" pieces
1 Celery, Stack & leaves, chop
1 Carrot, chopped
3 Green onions, sliced
1/3 cup Zucchini, grated
1 tsp Dried basil
1 tsp Dried thyme
1 dash Hot pepper sauce
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper
Directions
My note: Remove bones from turkey or chicken before serving and
refrigerate or freeze until you have time to prepare the soup. I like
to do it the next day, if possible, and make a batch of crackers
while the soup is cooking.
STOCK: In stockpot or large saucepan, combine bones, water, bay leaf,
celery and onion. (Skin and drippings may be included, if desired.)
Simmer, covered about 4 hours. Strain, reserving stock. Let bones
cool, pick out any meat and add to the stock.
SOUP: In stockpot or saucepan, bring stock to boil; add noodles and
simmer for 5 minutes. Add celery, carrot, green onions, zucchini,
basil and thyme. Simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in hot pepper sauce,
season with salt and pepper to taste. Makes about 4 1/2 cups.

The History of Recipes
Recipes as a concept can be tracked far back into distant history, in truth as far back as the Egyptians, and potentially, even further back. Having said that, mostly, these early records were just very simple hieroglyphic or cunieform instructions for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered so far, according to experts are some clay tablets in the Sumerian language which describe the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful and blissful. During the time of the Roman Empire a man called Apicius compiled a number of scripts which described recipes cooked by the Romans. In his publication, Apicius tells us how the meals were divided into starters, main meal and afters, something that is very familiar to us today. He also tells us how the Romans used a wide range of aromatic flavors, including some familiar names like basil, mint and parsley. In the fifteenth century, knights returning from the crusades brought us many new foods, spices and herbs from middle-east cuisine, such as basil and coriander. These new foods and spices led to an eruption in manuscripts on cooking, some of which are now in private cookery archives. Like it or not, the introduction of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the spin-off recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on sites such as this. |
