What's your favourite soup?

@chad

Potato leek... Especially when my partner adds zucchini to it

[chigaze@mstdn.ca]

@chad Of the above, Chicken Noodle, but I really love proper Japanese ramen. I've started making my own shoyu ramen and plan to branch out into other varieties this summer.

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@Chigaze I really need to branch out from Sapporo Ichiban - I just really don't enjoy when they add egg!

@chad

cullen skink. nothing more satisfying on a cold, wet day.

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@paul_ipv6 I had to look up what this was. Fish chowder?

I'd say that's a hell of a lot more palatable than clam chowder! I'll have to try it.

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@chad

smoked fish chowder is probably the easy description.

smoked fish (usually haddock), potatoes, cream. definitely does not have the kind of briny tasty clam chowder can.

not traditional but a bit of leek or corn doesn't do badly either.

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@paul_ipv6 oh that'd slap with some corn.

I'll have to seek some out!

@chad pho - I think that counts as soup?

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@curiousrobot I always see pho referred to as a soup.

I'm often not keen of it because they always put egg in it, and I'm not a big egg person.

@chad sopa de lima

@chad That's the fun thing about making it at home. I can mess around with ingredients. I actually like the egg although I've yet to really master it yet. I found this book last year that is fun and and great cookbook at the same time.

@chad whoa…what. There’s no egg in pho. You can order the most basic one (steak) and it’s just broth, rice noodles, and thinly sliced meat. Everything else is optional. Oohhhh you might be thinking about ramen!

If you want to try pho - I think you’re YEG area? https://www.phohoanpasteur.ca/edmonton

@chad Corn chowder (from the Cooking for Two, Company's Coming cookbook)

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@LauraleeDukeshire nothing beats the Company's Coming cookbooks.

@chad French onion!

[chad@mstdn.ca]

@productionsfl my partner is a big fan of the mini french onion soups from Costco!
