Soooop

That? Is a whole lot of soup. In quantity and intensity both.

For the record: I roasted a raw chicken carcass, chopped into bits; and then chopped-up carrots and butternut squash in the same oil. And then stuck it all in the slow cooker and left it overnight with water to cover.

Just now, I picked the meat off the bones and whizzed everything up in the blender. It is currently heating, with salt and (lots of) pepper and a chunk of ginger tossed in to add extra warmth.

Om nom, if I may say so, nom.


ETA: bacon croutons. Crispy om-noms, hissing as they strike.

*iz ded of nomming*

[I added an extra o to the soooop of the title, just to celebrate the bacon croutons]

Ooh. Wow, that sounds like good soop!

Ooh, bacon croutons.

(In fact, I just saw this recipe, with pancetta crackers.)

(Also, now that I finally realized you're on facebook, go see the bacon apple pie I was lucky enough to eat at our work's holiday party on Thursday).

Om-nom-nom. I keep reading about bacon apple pies, and thinking "There but for the grace of a pastry chef go I." I suppose, in extremis, a man must be his own pastry chef. Gracefully or otherwise...

But will you be having blue string pudding for afters?

[desperance.livejournal.com]

Hee. I should do, shouldn't I? In memoriam, and all that...

I'm sure someone must have worked out a way to do one. Possibly involving one of those Italian desserts made with sweet pasta, and a bottle of food dye.
