soup and a wee bit of Who rant

[somedaybitch]

it's blustery and a bit rainy outside and so i'm making chicken soup from scratch. mmmmm, soup.

and we're watching series 2 Doctor Who. it's the cat!nun episode and all i have to say to Rusty is....
your cat!nun said: "the REST OF BO-KIND..."

the.rest.of.Bo.Kind.

you wrote it. a whole species, buddy. a whole species.

this fan? ignoring your psychotic break. *nods*

Well, in that...one with the news station, there's a clip on TV that says that the Face of Boe is pregnant (again?). So I suppose there's one interpretation that the rest of Boe-kind are the Kids of Boe...but at the same time: no, I have no doubt Rusty pulled this one out of his ass, and there's no way he had it planned all along.

nope, none at all. and it's insulting to the really groovy thing he'd done to Jack. /bitter

i am in complete and utter awe of anyone who can make chicken soup from scratch. actually, i'm in complete and utter awe of anyone who can make anything from scratch!

it's cake. for srsly. well, not literally.

6-8 chicken thighs, skinned.
1/4 to 1/2 cup your favorite white wine
6-8 carrots
4-6 celery stalks

toss the chickeneses in a stock pot about 3/4 filled with water. add some salt. cook it on a high heat - but check that it's not so high that it boils over.

while that's cooking, chop up the veggies and toss them in. cook it for about 45ish minutes. if the chicken looks done-ish, take the pieces out one at a time, cut the meat off into small pieces/shreds and then toss that back into the water, along with the bone.

add the wine here, along with salt and pepper to taste, and more water if you need to, and drop the heat down to a low flame but higher than a low simmer.

cook it for about another 30ish and then add shells and let it cook till they're done. check the broth for flavor.

that's all there is to it. it's the celery and the carrots and the wine that really give the soup it's flavor.

go onnnnnnnn, make some. you know you want to.

i am writing this down. i am compiling a bunch of recipes into a binder. :)

i think i may add noodles to it. i need noodles in soup. :)

[somedaybitch.livejournal.com]

noodles are equally good. i'd go with the thicker ones though.

[lvp3.livejournal.com]

i like those fluffy egg noodles in soup. :) or big dumplings. :) mmm! soup!

Well you know, Jack is kind of a slut... ;) *winks and runs*

[somedaybitch.livejournal.com]

there's no kind of about it, :D, but he couldn't parallel populate an entire species.

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

He'd sure try, though, wouldn't he? lol I love my Jack.

[somedaybitch.livejournal.com]

he is a perfectionist, that one.
