Ingredients
START WITH
1 cubed potato
1 water, or stock
BRING TO A BOIL AND SIMMER
ADD ONE OF THE FOLLOWING
COMBINATIONS
2 peeled stalks of broccoli or 1c flo, rets, chopped
1 dried onion
1 veg bouillon
OR
2 carrots, chopped
1/4 tsp curry powder
OR
1 cup mushrooms
1 tbsp wine (1-3t)
OR
2 stalks celery, chopped
1/4 tsp tarragon, marjoram, or savory
OR
1 package frozen spinach or kale
1 grated nutmeg
1/4 tsp lemon juice
OR
1 cup frozen corn
1 tsp fresh parsely
OR
1 cup frozen peas
1/8 tsp each of ginger and pepper
1 tsp vinegar (1-3t)
OR
1 sweet potato or half an acorn squas, h, peeled and
1/2 tsp italian herb mixture
Directions
Simmer the soup until the veggies are tender. Puree in blender or
food processor until smooth. Add salt/pepper to taste.
Sally's notes: Instead of stock of bouillon cubes, you can take out
1/2c soup after pureeing and dissolve a T of miso in it, then return
it to the pot and mix. Almost all the combos are good with the
addition of 1/2 an onion and a clove or two of garlic sauteed in
sherry. Other possible additions (not combined of course) include: 1T
tomato paste, 1/2c leftover beans or grains, a few dried mushrooms or
dried tomatoes, a few tablespoons of sauerkraut, a T of capers or
chopped pickle added before serving, toasted pumpkin/squash seeds or
wheat germ sprinkled on top.

The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to track the history of transcribed cooking instructions way back into ancient history, in fact as far as pharonic Egypt, and possibly even further than that. However, these, ancient cook books were just basic pictorial instructions for preparing meals.
Moving on, we have two books which were published in the 14th Century ; a cookery book titled `Forme of Cury`, and another called `Curye on Inglish`. Perhaps surprisingly, they are not about the indian curry that we all know today, but rather accounts of the types of food cooked for the rich people of those days. By the advent of the 1900s, recipe books were starting to become popular as a result of higher levels of literacy, people having more free time and having more disposable income. |
We hope you enjoy this Comforting Quick Cream Soups (Vegan) recipe.
