(Formatted with All Pictures here: http://exilekiss.blogspot.com/2008/07/enchanting-pure-beef-noodle-soup-pho.html) Being a So Cal native, I’ve been lucky enough to have been exposed to many cuisines while growing up. My...

My SIL loves this dish, but I was force fed cream of mushroom soup as a child, and frankly it makes me gag just to look at it. Can I make this w/o that, and especially without mushrooms? Could I use cream of chicken soup, or...

Like many of the other contributors to this thread, I always have a few cans of soup on hand. I’m also one of those freaks that likes canned asparagus and colossal black olives. Allure is found in many places.

I was a little late in checking out of Chateau Jack-and-Thelma this morning, as was George Sape. George is one of my heroes. He has far too many interests and hobbies spilling out of his over-extended life as a top corporate...

SF Soup Co has acceptable chili, but you’ve probably tried that, too. Have you tried Soup Freaks (Pine between Sansome and Battery)? They have vegan chili and meat chili every day. I haven’t tried either yet, but...

Ham stock is freaking delicious, no? I just made a bunch from a leftover ham bone. I made split pea soup because my husband loves it, but I think I would have enjoyed a white bean soup more, un-pureed. I think ham stock would be a...

, but the taste wasn’t all that great. And it was $7 (maybe $6) for two of them. It’s one of those that looks better than it tastes. The second time I got hot and sour soup. It was $5 and it was freaking huge. I ended...

11 of us shared 35 dishes today at Green Tea 2. (some multiples). Once again everything was very fresh and tasty. Some favorites at the table included the Szechuan style beef noodle soup, 3 delight rice sticks, and the homemade...

like to freeze meatballs and soups and stews. Any other suggestions? Any tips on thawing things in a hurry? Is a Food-Sav-R really any better than just sucking the air out of a ZipLoc freezer bag? The guys on the Barbecue Freak...
