Whats Your Comfort Food

[noboundaries]

I've made potato soups that included bacon, cream, half n half, cheese, carrots, a variety of spices, etc, but I cannot call them "potato soup." My wife ate the soup above so often when young that the words "potato soup" create an expectation against which anything I make is measured. After hearing "that's not potato soup" too many times to count, I now name any potato soup I make something else, and she loves it with no comparisons.

It pays to pay attention.

Quite some time ago I had a craving for goulash...but not the type with alot of liquid. What I ended up with was very thick...could stand a fork up in it...it was perfect! My wife nicknamed it " slump"!

I love a hearty bowl of potato chowder. Here's my take on it.

Potato soup

Since there has been a bit of talk in regards to potato soup I got the urge for some for dinner tonight. I conjured this up quite a long time ago after. Believe it or not. Campbell's beans and franks soup from when I was growing up. This time I only made 2 changes. The fixings: 1 pound thick...

First time I made it I used lamb. Loved it! Emily prefers beef and that's all we do now. Lol

My wife made a pan meal last night. Same ingredients as stew except she doesn't like gravy.

I have formed an addiction the these. Hot dogs made from pork loin and brisket trim, homemade New Orleans French bread buns, homemade chipotle Mayo, Cincinnati venison hot dog chili, homemade pickles and pickled red onions with cheese!

Tamales, or a nice Italian deli cold cut sandwich on a sourdough hard roll.

Trader Joe's Dark Chocolate Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz bar

I will give you one. These are the bomb. I love them on Deviled Eggs. I would show you the ones I just did but they kind of fell out of my over full fridge! They where sitting on a Brisket I smoking and giving to a friend next week. At least they still taste good.

From scratch...

Chicken-n-dumplings (with FLAT dumplings, not biscuits!)
Vegetable Beef soup and fried hot water cornbread
Biscuits and sausage gravy


NOT from scratch...

There is only one...Cheeseburger Macaroni Hamburger Helper (beat me, stomp me, I've loved it since the first time I ate it MANY years ago)

 

[pit 4 brains]

Today is a prime day for a bowl of soup or chowder. Thinking about my bean chowder.
