Little miss M sat on a toughest
0:02
eating Kurds in way long,
0:04
came a spider sat down beside
0:07
and said
0:15
Hey, what's in the bowl, bitch. sorry.
0:21
Ah,
0:21
and little miss said soup.
0:27
soup.
0:27
Soup talk because we,
0:29
we haven't talked about enough different
0:32
kinds of foods. And
0:34
I think it's time for some soup talk,
0:36
talking about soup
0:38
I'm with ya. Let's talk
0:41
in general. Jay, are you a fan of the soup?
0:46
about soup. I am. Absolutely. I think it's a great meal.
0:48
For all
0:50
seasons.
0:51
All seasons, even, maybe even
0:54
now I would have soup. Now. In fact, I just had
0:56
some ramen the other day with
0:58
a hundred and something, whatever degrees
1:02
that's soup, right.
1:03
I like a nice, a lighter soup
1:05
in, in, in the summertime. Like, and
1:07
one that I could do year round, even in the summer
1:10
is chicken tortilla soup, you
1:13
know, that's always a good one. Yeah.
1:15
I can do a, a
1:19
broccoli cheese soup,
1:22
Ooh.
1:22
That is not quite as good for you, but
1:24
I like it. I can do that in the summer too.
1:27
There's one that's fun for summer and winter.
1:29
It's a it's taco soup. It's
1:32
got all sorts of stuff in
1:34
it. Some people in
1:36
the Northeast would call it chili dumies.
1:41
what chili is. Idiots,
1:44
whether not really. Is it chill?
1:46
But yeah, I do love soup
1:49
and it the great thing about soup is
1:51
it's filling because it's hot. It's
1:54
like when you get a craving at night
1:56
to eat something like for me, I'll
1:59
go get a, a cup of tea
2:01
or a decaf coffee, and
2:03
that'll kill my craving for. And soup,
2:06
you know, you're, it's, you're eating a little
2:08
bit lighter. I mean, I, people
2:10
have done diets that are just all soup.
2:13
I don't wanna be souped out. That's why I would try
2:15
that diet.
2:16
Or
2:18
sort souped up. Although
2:20
I don't know, it might be an interesting diet
2:22
to try, but I do guess I
2:25
love soup. Jane,
2:28
do you love soup?
2:30
Yeah. I there's a lot
2:32
of. Soups to
2:34
laugh. there
2:38
was a soup familiar. I
2:41
was trying to think of the name of what this particular
2:43
soup is called. And then I
2:46
didn't think about it until we started talking about
2:48
it and I thought, oh yeah, that's one of my favorite soups,
2:50
but, and I've had it all season long
2:53
and it's the Olive Garden Tuscan
2:56
soup.
2:57
I haven't had that.
2:59
Yeah. Yeah. In fact, I'm not
3:01
being a big fan of Italian food.
3:04
Usually when we go to Olive
3:06
Garden, I'll get their
3:08
soup and salad just because I like
3:11
the soup more than I like other Italian
3:13
foods.
3:14
told me previously that you're not a big fan. Of
3:18
Italian food. So
3:20
it makes sense that you go to Olive Garden.
3:22
Well, the the wife and kid
3:25
used to love olive garden. And so we
3:27
would go a lot mainly at the like pasta
3:30
and the bread sticks. And
3:31
they have
3:31
would,
3:32
great salad and bread sticks. Yeah.
3:35
Yeah. Just kinda
3:36
And so I would get the suit just kinda,
3:39
and the Tron.
3:41
have you had. I'm trying to think a
3:43
soup that I quite enjoy is a
3:45
French onion soup.
3:47
I like the broth, but I
3:50
could do without so much onion.
3:52
yeah. Yeah. It's a lot and it's not
3:54
a, it's not a really a light meal.
3:58
Yeah. The broth and the cheese, I like the flavor,
4:00
but. And then it's also always
4:02
has that bread with it. It gets really heavy,
4:04
but I do love the flavor of the broth.
4:07
It's just, I can have it without the
4:10
Now our another soup that I
4:12
really enjoy and once
4:15
a year, maybe sometimes more than
4:17
once, but it's
4:19
MOS of all soup and
4:22
it's. It's basically
4:24
it's chicken broth, but then with
4:26
the MAA ball in
4:29
it
4:29
I don't think I've had that. I think I
4:31
remember you've told me about it before I forgot about
4:33
that, but I haven't tried it.
4:35
it is so good. And the, probably
4:37
the reason I love it so much is
4:40
the friend of ours who
4:42
she makes it it's
4:44
the broth that she makes. She
4:47
makes the broth, she, she boils
4:49
you know, in the boils, the chicken. It's
4:53
got at night, it's a bone broth. So it's
4:55
getting that, you know, the bone in there
4:57
and all that. And I
5:00
swear, it's a MI miracle
5:02
cure. Like if somebody's
5:03
Oh, yeah,
5:05
she'll make that bro. And it just
5:07
makes you feel better. It's so
5:09
good.
5:10
yeah. We make, we have one it's called
5:12
my wife makes it it's called CDO
5:15
and we'll get some, we'll get. Chicken
5:18
will get the part. So it has the bones in it, and
5:21
then we'll get a neck bone or something like that.
5:23
And then some kind of, usually we used to use a
5:25
piece of meat, but we've not been eating beef
5:28
the past couple of years, but we'll do the same thing where we'll
5:30
boil it for a long time. Get the, the marrow,
5:32
I guess, from the bones. And then we also
5:34
Al also throw in it an onion
5:37
and a couple of carrots and a few potatoes.
5:40
Yep. I haven't done the potatoes, but
5:42
we do the onions and carrots.
5:43
And then we'll, we'll even take off broth
5:46
and put it in a separate container that will
5:48
save to just a drink cuz we'll freeze. And
5:51
then drink the broth throughout the year is like,
5:53
if it, if there's a bug going
5:55
around or if we're just tired or run
5:57
down or something, we'll have some of this CODO
6:00
cuz it's yeah. I mean, it is really good
6:02
for your immune system. It seems,
6:04
yeah.
6:04
but now see, this is gr this is awesome because
6:06
there's, there's a couple of parts to it. So
6:09
after we take out the broth, we have
6:11
it as a soup and it's got the carrots
6:13
and the potatoes and the chicken used to have
6:15
the beef in it. After we have the soup,
6:18
we'll. A little bit of the broth
6:20
that's left over and we'll use
6:22
it as kind of a, I guess, an oil
6:24
or grease. And in that we will, we will fry
6:27
chickpeas in the soup broth,
6:31
and then we'll have the fried
6:33
chickpeas with
6:35
the, the chicken and the potatoes and the carrots
6:37
and stuff that was in the.
6:40
Oh, wow.
6:41
And then there is another level to
6:43
it. the next level. And
6:45
usually the next day, I mean, it's like a three or
6:47
four day process. We'll take,
6:49
what's left over from the,
6:52
the potatoes, the carrots and
6:55
the, the chickpeas. And we'll mix
6:57
it with some flour and make what's
6:59
called a Masa. With,
7:02
with all of this stuff and then coat it in
7:04
breadcrumbs and fry it and make
7:07
cor Cortas with what
7:09
was used in the original soup.
7:11
Oh, wow.
7:12
And it's, it's a very Spanish
7:14
thing to do, but it's, I mean, every
7:16
part of the process is absolutely
7:20
the delicious, one of my favorite things to have.
7:22
That's great. So that, I mean, there is no
7:24
GI, there's no waste there. That
7:26
soup gets used as much as
7:28
it possibly can
7:30
Oh, yeah. I
7:30
different reason
7:31
yeah. I mean, even the bones are just boiled down
7:33
to nothing getting as much broth out
7:35
of it as we can. And yeah, it's, it
7:38
is so good
7:39
That is great. I think I heard
7:41
Y Y Z, which tells me it
7:43
may be time for a Shane
7:46
to do a
7:46
for a toast, which by the way,
7:49
Not too bad with soup, like a grilled cheese
7:52
with
7:53
Oh, now we're talking tomato
7:56
soup, a grilled cheese sandwich. I'm
7:59
not saying I'm just saying. So
8:05
there's, you know, be before you start
8:07
that toast, I have to open a
8:09
beer because
8:11
I am out, I, I am out of beer
8:13
and I don't want to pretend to do a toast
8:16
with you because that's bad
8:18
luck, sir.
8:19
May have done that before. Maybe that's why my luck
8:21
was oh no. Oh no.
8:23
So I'm gonna open this bottle of Kona,
8:25
which has become one of my favorite BES.
8:28
Kona
8:29
Yeah. It's the Hawaiian
8:30
RA. Oh
8:31
yeah. Yeah. Long board, Kona,
8:34
long board. So
8:37
Jay likey, Jay
8:39
I have a nice short one. That is from a person
8:41
I don't. Know who they are. So
8:44
I don't know professor Irwin, Corey
8:46
don't know who that is, but
8:47
likey. Okay.
8:48
he says something funny and I shall use it as
8:50
a
8:51
Do it. Let's do it.
8:53
Remember I before E
8:55
except in Budweiser
8:59
I like that. That's good. Cheers.
9:06
Remember the last time I drank Budweiser, but.
9:09
I mean, I can't drink that anymore. I used to drink it
9:11
a lot. I can't drink bud light
9:13
either because that, for some reason it tastes
9:15
too sweet to me, but,
9:18
tell you the last time I had bud light.
9:19
But so.
9:21
good beer and all the drinking it, instead
9:23
of all those old light beers, like
9:25
So we're talking about chicken broth. Yes. And
9:28
how great that is. Like, I'll do a
9:30
gumbo. And when
9:32
I do the gumbo, I do a RO and
9:35
it has chicken broth. The gumbo
9:37
has chicken broth in it, but
9:40
Yeah, I do the RO that's separate, but you
9:42
know, the chicken broth, I will take
9:44
the chicken boil it and
9:47
it has Caen pepper in it because it gives
9:49
it some seasoning. So it's
9:51
kind of hard to save that for a soup,
9:53
cuz it's a little bit of a spicy soup, but
9:56
if there's any leftover, I'll save
9:58
it cuz you can use it
10:00
for so.
10:02
Yeah.
10:03
it's just, it's great. You don't wanna, you don't
10:05
wanna waste your good chicken broth, but
10:07
It's a lot of flavor to not use.
10:10
we spent a lot of time on chicken broth,
10:14
but let's talk, let's go back to
10:16
soup talk, which this
10:18
is soup do. Well, let's go back to I guess
10:20
if you had to narrow down, what
10:23
would you say would be your favorite. Soup.
10:28
Another soup that my wife makes,
10:30
she worked at a bakery
10:33
in grapevine, who, I
10:35
don't know if I should say this out loud with all
10:37
of her millions of fans that were
10:39
realized this, but they had a chef
10:41
who worked at LA Madeline. And
10:45
took their tomato
10:47
basal soup re recipe.
10:50
So Karen can make a
10:52
really awesome tomato
10:55
basal soup that is super
10:57
close to what you get at LA Madeline
11:00
you send me that recipe
11:02
oh yeah. Yeah. She would probably send that to you
11:04
and it is.
11:05
that is, that is Robin's. I
11:08
think that's Robin's favorite
11:09
Oh yeah. Okay.
11:11
soup is she loves Lama. She loves
11:13
that soup. I do too. I've had it's great.
11:16
And then she even does a little
11:18
lighter version of it, too,
11:20
that if you were interested in that she could share,
11:22
because it's, it it's a lot of heavy
11:25
cream and she has a, a lighter
11:27
version of it. So, but yeah,
11:29
all for light too.
11:31
rich. And then, you know, especially
11:33
with a grilled cheese or even any kind
11:35
of bread is just fantastic.
11:37
That. Oh my gosh. That sounds good.
11:40
So my, one
11:42
of my, and I guess maybe it's probably is my
11:44
favorite soup. It
11:47
in no way is I
11:49
don't think it's
11:52
probably not really any good for you any way,
11:54
shape, form, or fashion, but it's
11:58
potato soup. Or
12:01
a, we like to make basically
12:04
a baked potato soup because
12:05
the little cheese
12:07
cheese chives bacon.
12:09
We do, we'll do when we do the potato.
12:11
So the, or the baked potato soup,
12:14
we'll do it's got sauteed onions that
12:16
are sauteed with bacon
12:18
Whoa,
12:18
and,
12:19
Diane Soler.
12:19
and we take the bacon
12:22
out. And some of the grease
12:25
and then we use that and we add the potatoes and
12:27
we, you know, we layer it and add a
12:29
little cream to it. And then we, when we pour
12:32
it, when we serve it, we it's
12:34
creamy. And then we'll throw some some
12:36
bacon bits, some of the bits of the bacon
12:38
on top, some Chis. And of
12:41
course cheese, probably
12:45
my favorite suit. And
12:48
I know it's not great for you, but you know, one bowl
12:50
of that is filling
12:51
Yeah, yeah. Only need one bowl at
12:54
a time.
12:55
Yeah,
12:57
you know, I would probably regret not
12:59
bringing up this other soup that
13:01
I enjoy unless I get a bad one
13:04
and I don't know how good it is for
13:06
your immune system for preventing getting
13:08
sick. But when you are sick,
13:11
if you have a sore throat or you're, you
13:13
need something to open you up a little bit. To
13:15
me, there is no better. So. For
13:18
that then a hot and sour soup.
13:21
Ooh, I love a good hot and sour soup.
13:24
Yes that's. Yes. And you
13:26
know what? You can find a bad,
13:28
hot and
13:29
Oh yeah.
13:30
Yeah. But yeah,
13:32
we, but we had a place when we lived in McKinney
13:35
that they had the best hot and sour
13:37
soup and we've
13:39
been trying to find one as good as that.
13:41
But yeah, I love a good,
13:43
hot and sour.
13:44
There's some bad ones out there. Easy to find. So do you eat all of the.
13:47
Stuff in it.
13:50
Yeah.
13:51
Okay. I will usually, if it's
13:53
bigger pieces of tofu, I
13:55
don't eat it, but all of the mushrooms, chicken,
13:57
or whatever else is in it I'll eat, but
14:01
I can only take so much tofu
14:03
and get pretty turned off by it.
14:06
Usually when we get it least
14:09
the ones that I've had has have hadn't
14:11
it hadn't been too much tofu. So
14:14
it's not overly food.
14:17
I'm I'm
14:20
almost anti tofu.
14:23
I'm not profu toe Fu
14:26
toe.
14:27
I don't even know what tofu is.
14:30
It's some kind of soy bean
14:34
substance, cuz I do
14:36
like. What's the other
14:38
tofu, there's
14:40
another food and it's like fermented tofu.
14:43
And I can't think of what it's called. Dang it. What
14:46
is it called? Because we use it all the time.
14:48
We'll use it to make tacos.
14:52
know what you're talking about and they,
14:53
that called?
14:54
So, so, so does it start with
14:56
an S. So
14:59
free
15:00
Mm, well, so that's
15:03
kind of a, a Mexican or Spanish
15:05
version of it. I think this is
15:07
a oh my gosh. And the name is just escaping
15:12
me and I can't think of what it's
15:14
called. Maybe it's not fermented. I could have
15:16
sworn it was fermented tacos, not
15:18
kimchi, cuz that's not tofu.
15:22
Cabbage, you know what? We'll probably just have to
15:24
think of it later because I just remembered
15:26
it when you brought it up the tofu
15:29
Hmm,
15:29
and it's not really a suit, it would be disgusting
15:31
in a suit because we try to make chili out of it once
15:34
because it, we've used it for tacos. It's
15:36
a little, it can be a little crunchy and
15:38
a little nutty. And so we
15:41
thought, you know what, maybe it would make a good chili and
15:43
it was
15:44
not
15:44
disgusting cuz it got kind of spongy
15:47
in the chili. And it's not
15:49
Satan. Cuz that's the O that's like
15:52
the wheat type version
15:54
of it. Yeah. It's called
15:56
Satan S E I T a
15:58
N or something like that.
16:00
well,
16:01
Yeah. Oh my gosh. And I can't
16:03
th I can't think of the name of it. And everyone
16:07
listening now is probably going idiots.
16:10
It's called this.
16:13
That's how do you print? How do you spell that?
16:16
Use it in sentence.
16:17
this there's and
16:20
I don't even think we have any
16:23
left that I could run to the fridge and go, oh, it's
16:25
called this.
16:27
well, why don't we package that?
16:30
And then maybe perhaps
16:33
we'll do a related round where
16:36
you can bring it up. Tofu
16:40
leads me to other things that make me think
16:42
about other stuff. like,
16:47
when we're talking about TOFI TOFI
16:49
tofu, I was just thinking about reason, I was
16:51
start thinking about Mexican food. I would
16:53
cuz I guess because of Chipotle
16:55
the Soritos or whatever they, but
16:58
and we went to a Mexican restaurant this
17:00
week. It's been around for like 50, 60
17:03
years. And they had,
17:06
they called them west Texas
17:08
style enchiladas, but
17:11
they were basically pretty
17:13
much the new Mexican stacked
17:17
enchilada. I
17:19
know it's not soup, but it
17:21
relates to soup in that your
17:24
mom made that chili, that new Mexican
17:26
chili.
17:27
Yeah.
17:28
Which still to, to this
17:30
day, it's still one
17:33
of my favorite things on earth and
17:36
I had this and it was not like that.
17:38
It wasn't,
17:40
that spongey or
17:41
yeah, it was still good, but
17:43
it wasn't, you know, it wasn't that,
17:46
but it, it made me think of that. I'm
17:48
like, this is good, but could
17:53
always be better.
17:54
Tempe it's called Tempe, T
17:56
E M P E H. Yes.
17:59
All right.
17:59
is what it's called and it'll come in little
18:01
squares and you can fry it up and you kind
18:04
of break it up just like you would ground beef. And
18:06
it's great on tacos. It's
18:09
pretty good in case ad is.
18:11
but ain't good
18:11
And yeah. And it's decent protein source.
18:14
I think it, I think it comes from maybe it doesn't
18:16
come from tofu, but it's,
18:18
I know it's fermented. So it's got that little
18:20
extra stuff for your gut bio in it.
18:23
So our favorite brand
18:25
of it is at sprout. So
18:28
if you go to Sprouse and you
18:29
LL sprouts.
18:30
Tempe, they're with it's with their vegan
18:32
stuff, it's it's pretty good. If you wanted to have
18:34
a meatless Monday or
18:37
something like that, some. Because
18:39
you can mix whatever else you put up with tacos,
18:41
you could do that. But with Tempe
18:43
instead of beef
18:45
I I'm writing it down cuz I wanna
18:47
check it out.
18:49

18:51
