Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

Got my usual Sunday carry today. Church and some more studying. Might take a break and have an adult beverage or two. Most likey some bourbon and a cigar. It's funny, I hardly take photos when Im smoking or enjoying a beer. I tell myself I need to snap a good lamb photo while smoking a pipe or cigar. Never do ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿคฃ ๐Ÿ˜‚. I think I'm going to the parents house for dinner. My mom has a pot of kimchi soup stewing. My favorite meal growing up. I Hope everyone has a great day ahead of them. Enjoy the rest of your weekend Guardians.

Yummy looking soup !
 
I'd like to have the recipe! Thanks.

Here we go David, use it as a guide, if you want more garlic, or salt, or parsley, just throw it in there. But use the best quality ingredients you have :thumbsup:

Jack's Italian Tomato Soup with Pasta

Good Extra Virgin olive oil
3 large cloves of garlic
1lb or so of good vine-ripened tomatoes
2 medium sized onions
3-4 tbs of finely chopped fresh parsley (with the largest stalk removed)
1 1/2 litres of good quality vegetable stock or bouillon
Black pepper
150g of medium-sized pasta, such as Spirili, Macaroni, Fusili, etc
Grated Parmesan (optional)

Heat a couple of good glugs of oil in a saucepan, on a low heat, and then add the finely sliced onion.
Fry gently for a few minutes, and then add the finely chopped garlic, and half the parsley.
Continue to gently fry for about 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
Add the roughly chopped tomatoes. Increase the heat a little, and continue to cook for 5 minutes, while stirring.
Add 1.5 ltrs of hot stock, and gently bring to the boil, while stirring.
Season with black pepper.
Reduce the heat, cover, and gently simmer for 20 minutes.
Increase the heat again, and add the pasta.
Continue to cook, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes (the pasta should be al dente).
Add the remaining chopped parsley, and stir.
Serve sprinkled with grated Parmesan, if using.
 
so I imagine there are good vegan sausages to be found
Contradiction in terms. To quote the Right Honourable Jim Hacker MP. ;) in Yes Minister on the topic of the British Sausage or as he stated " Emulsified High Fat Offal Tube". Make one of them out of Vegies and your either a genius or a liar. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜
Not quite sure I want to go through a load of bad ones trying to find them though!
The path of history is littered with such failed ventures. Think of all the people world wide who uprooted and left everything in the search of Gold. 99% went broke and returned home to nothing, same principal. ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿคซ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ.

I not an espresso expert by no means but it tastes pretty good.
If you like the coffee get one. A lot cheaper than going out and buying a coffee which can be very ordinary at best. It is 6.30AM here on Monday morning and i'm having a coffee out of an Aldi machine. Works out at about 40 cents US, better than paying $3.40 US which is what you usually pay over here in a Cafe. And it is pretty good coffee. Have a good week.

I hope it works out for your buddy, feel free to mess around with it :) I don't add salt because my stock has some salt :) The better the tomatoes, the better the flavour :thumbsup:

Because of the pasta, it's really a meal to eat at one sitting. I have had it a second day, and it's nice, but different. You need to cool it down fast to try and stop the pasta cooking, (I transfer it to a smaller pan, then stand the pan in ice water), but it'll still soak up some more of the liquid :thumbsup:

Great to see you here! ๐Ÿ˜Š Along with your well-used '19 :) It's been a long time my friend, I hope we're going to be seeing a bit more of you :thumbsup:

Thanks Jack Black Jack Black ! I never was a proper poster of this super '19 but maybe I'll improve (can't get any worse!). It has been refreshing to spend some time back on The Porch, and this thread's a main contributor to that. Appreciate all that you do here and elsewhere. Good luck with the meatless month!:thumbsup:
