When I woke up this morning, it was snowing. There was 4-6 inches on the ground and still snowing. I didn’t need to go out and decided to make some stone soup with leftovers in the refrigerator.
Stone Soup Recipe: 1 Bag (26 oz) Bob’s Red Mill Whole Grains and Beans Soup Mix, Water (8 quarts), Knorr Chicken Flavor Bouillon (8 tbs), 2 Chopped Red Onions, 1 Chopped Celery Heart, 8 Chopped Garlic Cloves, and all of the leftover pork roast, chicken, and rib-roast in the fridge chopped into small pieces. Brought to a boil, then simmered for 4 hours. When done enough to feed an army… More leftovers to be frozen. Someday maybe I will learn to cook for one.
Bread Recipe: Whole Wheat Flour (1 cup); White Flour (1 cup); Rye Flour (0.5 cup); brown sugar (2 tbs); dry milk (1 tbs); caraway seed (2 tsp); fennel seed (1 tsp); crystallized ginger (0.5 tsp); star anise (1 dry star ground up); salt (1 tsp); egg (1 medium); oil (1 tbs); water (7/8 cup). Above ingredients added to Panasonic Bread Bakery. Yeast (1 tsp) added to yeast hopper and the unit set for Whole Wheat Bread (Rapid) and started. Three hours later, the loaf of bread was removed and allowed to cool.
