soup making help

I'd bin it but then I hate butternut squash

hmmmm ...think strain it...take out the pinapple.... bring it up to the boil...add some double cream and served with some croutons and hope for the best !

p.s. do a small batch up first and see what its like....

good luck sir

If you find anything too hot a squeeze of lemon juice will tone it down a bit.

Drop a couple of Pigs cheeks in there .

just tasted it and the cucumber was a bad  idea imo .

fairly thickened it up though

put some lime juice in earlier ....

got any cream?

aye that went in as well

f*** me is there anything you haven't put in yet?

its no tasting too great ,will leave it for now but a think its had it ,might be better tomoz but doubt it .

served with warm cheese straws, croutons and chopped parsley ..... then chuck it down the sink

buy the wife a cook book lol

Sorry tictac  ,missed that ,a had already  liquidized .

second day soup always tastes better but a think its gone tbh  ,got some pork chops and ready made sweat and sour ,with rice and nan .

the soup is toxic tbh

dont forget to do her pancakes with lemon & sugar . No chili in it mind.

enjoy

you've got to eat it now, you have put 200 quids worth of ingredients in it

they use to call a mish mash of soups over the week in top hotels " brown windsor " always served on friday .

not sure what to call breadbutter's delight??

will think of summit ,parsley could be an idea but dont have any ....have a turnip and some parsnips though .

maybe some roast turnip and parsnips could turn it around ?

Put some potatoes in it.

According to my mrs.

I'd try oxo cubes and creme de menthe. Might just turn it around imo.

Making soup with a huge varied cast list of ingredients is great fun.

Butternut squash, Sweet potatoes , leeks , carrots , peas , onions , spring onions , mushrooms ....then add basil , chillis , mustard , Marmite .......

blend and enjoy.

Put a couple of pound of fermented dung into it. It will taste like Joe Holts bitter then..

OK cheers ,but a think its past the recovery stage  ,just has a bite to it ,maybe go down the curry route (chicken )

would still need summit to mellow it though ,coconut ? or summit ....no longer a soup imo

Sweat potato is ok ,had some for the fist time not long ago and liked it .

Flush it down the toilet.

Put some potatoes in it.

According to my mrs.

56lbs

Have you got a pet dog?

Give it the dog if you have.
Dogs will eat anything if that's all you give them.

Crippen : that would not environmentally ethical .

confident the transition to curry will prove  a success  ,otherwise  its a hazardous waste disposal job

Have you tried putting a pancake in it yet?

no but you have given me an idea ,tommy toes will be going in the s̶o̶u̶p̶  curry

coconut milk was the right answer about 8 hours ago (before you put the cucumber in).

fat and volume are the only two ways to really reduce the heat.

hehehe breadnbutter!

the cucumber was a massive mistake ,the soup never stood a chance after that ,never thought it had such a strong taste ,thought it would be more neutral.

that pot a s̶o̶u̶p̶  curry is like my betting just now

if this is a fishing thread then it is not bad, certainly seen worse,  But if that opening post is even only half truthful it is absolutely hilarious.  "Added loads of curry powder thought it was a bit hot so I added a pineapple". Wtf, Are you a proper mentalist?

if i fokked anything up i'd simply add a tube or two of tom puree to turn it into a spicy tomato soup - but not sure why you added pineapple 

stick in a load of bell peppers too  i suppose

Charlie Harper on 2.5 Men:

I WONDER WHO WAS THE FIRST GUY TO PUT PINEAPPLE ON PIZZA? I BET HE WAS GAY. NO STRAIGHT GUY IS GONNA SAY: “YOU KNOW WHAT THIS PIZZA COULD USE? A PINEAPPLE RING!” GOD BLESS HIM! IT’S GOOD.

forgot to mention  a added  chili powder/cayenne pepper/ginger powder/salt/pepper /paprika /ect ect (including a few chopped peppers )

Put some Vodka in it.

Add some Angel Delight, that'll thicken it up a bit. Butterscotch goes well with Cucumber.

I am sure there are women in Los Angeles would pay thousands for it to be spooned over their faces.

Have you got a couple of slices of cucumber left over?

sweat and sour

That is really thinking "out of the box"!

A tale of total incompetency and certainly not worth chucking any more at it.

The potatoes is a good shout but, by then you will be putting carrots, parsnips, turnip, onions, half a bottle of a good Shiraz etc,

and dumplings to finish.

So you will have an expensive, and inedible stew, in a rancid sauce.

the sweat and sour was a sauce for the pork chops ,that was the tea ,pork chop s+s casserole served with rice and nan (not so good tbh)

although i did put the remnants in the soup

just turned the  cooker on and will taste later and will begin adjusting and  hopefully after a fine tune or two it will be ready for tea


sent a SOS (save our soup ) to my ma and awaiting a reply ,if anyone can save it she can .

That sweat and sour doesn't sound very appetising.

What do you do, wring your tee shirt out after a jog?

ok calm down

If it's good, can you put up the recipe please?

You could be the next Levi Roots, who knows? 

BBC saturday kitchen this week has two special guests, Madhur Jaffrey and our very own galloping gourmet " breadnbutter ", cooking his seasonal delights and a sprinkling of seasonings from the pantry.

Enjoy

As per jack hacksaw put plenty of potatoes in it will take out a fair bit of heat .Freeze what you have leftover

Can of coconut milk will also do the job

Was already a dead duck of a soup as soon as the butternut squash was added.  Trendy but the blandest vegetable known to man.

no wonder you wanted to spice it up

The heat isn't the problem men.  It is the fact he has chucked a pineapple and a cucumber in it.  The game is up, this is an ex soup.

Butternut squash  best if marinated in garlic with tarragon - no use on it's own .

Non veggies need to know how to get the best out of foods to get the results ,otherwise it will be a boring  meal ,just meat and 2veg

Could always pretend you are facing the eating challenge on I'm A Celebrity, plus with all the extras you've added you will achieve your 5 a day target in one hit.

I read this thread with a somewhat dry mouth.
I'm keen to know the end result, though hope it was a great success?

he's artexed his garage with it

It must be fermenting by now, stick it in a demi john for a few weeks and it'll be 40% proof.

ok lads ,amazing what a night sitting can do for a pot of soup ,was a diff mixture this morning and after the addition of some water and some mashed potato/cream/coconut milk  i now have  a gallon and a half of reasonably good tasting soup.
Needed a slight adjustment just a bit tangy on the pineapple and  have put a very small amount of tica masala powder in and a very little  tom puree and a bit more salt and a dash of mustard and vinegar .Just turned the cooker off and tasted and its nearly there .
Its a complicated taste of tangy aromas and an after heat but not too hot anymore .

Another night standing will not do it any harm .
of course you never know until you are a few spoonfuls in but seems not bad

hahahaha!

Why not stick an Aubergine in it?

They are the most useless vegetables known to man - but it just may be that they could help your concotion out a treat!

Mrs. F. puts half a packet of Grace's C0ck soup in pumpkin soup to spice it up a bit.
Tastes marvellous.

You've got a gallon and a half!!?  FFS you only set out to make two pints. How many times have you transferred it to a bigger pan?

started and finished in a  family size pressure cooker ,gallon and a half a slight overestimation ,about 6L .

Taste changed a bit today and still a tad  tangy (pinapple/peppers) just needs a very slight adjust but cant decide what would be right .

will be ideal on the fancy  smaller deco  plates ,arranged neatly around some noodles/seawead with a tomatoe garnish center piece  and some cream zig zag artwork to finish it off .

fresh celery and  dip should compliment nicely .

The nation awaits....was is served ? and is He still alive ?

Why not just strain it and use it to hang wallpaper? That way it won't go to waste.

* was it served?

a heard you the first time


this is not a gay chit chat come dine with me type fred tictac .

sorry to disappoint me old fruit ,perhaps if you hook up via pm with screaming  , buster and rob you could  arrange a nice cosy foursome and psycho analyse the use of pineapple rings and cucumbers in soups

have this horrible picture in me head of a 70+ pre op in high heels, red lipstick,black lingerie and white gloves.Screaming similar and rob and buster in superman outfits .


the soup turned out just fine and went down a treat ,tbh was one of the best i have ever made ,thanks for all  the help and support ,dont think i could have made it without you .

Another night standing will not do it any harm .

reminds me of the story of the invention of worcestershire sauce. Lea and Perrins found that their attempt at recreating a recipe brought back from India, tasted f*cking disgusting, and left their miserable swill in their basement for a couple of years. Two years later, they went back and had a taste and liked it, bottled it and sold it.
