Turkey And Chile Soup

Recipe By : fnsjc@aurora.alaska.edu
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories :
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
16 ounces tomatoes
7 ounces green chiles -- diced
1 onion -- cut into chunks
3 cups chicken broth -- or homemade turkey
stock
3 cups cooked turkey -- bite sized pieces
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 10 ounce wh kernel corn, frozen
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon chili powder

This is a recipe that I like to use for turkey leftovers. I use the
carcass to make the stock first. I throw in any vegetables I want to use
up in the fridge into the stock pot except cabbage and broccoli and carrot
greens which smell too strong if I let the stock boil too hard by
accident. I simmer the stock about 2 hours or so. After straining the
stock and discarding the bones and vegetables I use the following recipe
from the Sunset "Fresh Ways with Chicken" cookbook, which I usually
double. I also use more broth and less turkey than they call for, I
really don't measure the ingredients, I just add what I've got until it's
as thick as I want it and the proportions look right. In a blender or food
processor combine tomatoes and their liquid, chiles and onion; whirl until
smooth. Pour into a large pan, add broth and bring to a boil over high
heat. Add turkey, rice, corn, garlic and spices. Reduce heat and simmer
until heated through. Serve with fresh cilantro, sour cream and tortilla
strips, their recipe calls for strips made from flour tortillas, but I use
corn sometimes too.

1 1/2 pounds chicken -- cut up
1 onion -- chopped
1 pound mushrooms -- chopped
1 bunch collard greens -- or spinach or other
6 ounces tomato paste

Stem and chop greens. Put chicken, onion and mushrooms in soup pot. Add

Cover and cook while you're washing and chopping the greens, about 10
minutes. Add salt, red pepper and tomato paste. Boil for about another 5
or 10 minutes. Add greens and replace lid, steaming greens and stirring
them in. Variations: sometimes we add some exotic ingredients like smoked
fish and/or ground egusi (which is a kind of melon seed), but it's
perfectly tasty without these additions. This is traditionally served with
"fufu" which is a doughy starch made variously from gari (roasted,
fermented, ground cassava), or from semolina flour or from various
combinations of Bisquick, potato Buds, potato starch, etc. It's also good
over rice.

Winter Tomato Garlic Macaroni Soup

Recipe By : "Jessica Litman" <p01046@psilink.com>


Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories :
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 garlic bulbs
2 large yellow onions
2 leeks -- white part only
4 tablespoons olive oil -- butter, or
butter/oil
26 ounce tomatoes -- chopped, or 1 can pl
1 dried ancho peppers -- optional
1 quart tomato broth -- see note
1 quart chicken broth -- or vegetable broth
or
6 cups water
rosemary
basil
parsley
sea salt
pepper
8 ounce macaroni
parmesan cheese -- optional

Separate the garlic bulbs into cloves and peel. Divide garlic cloves into
three piles. Mince onions with one third of the garlic cloves (I use a
food processor). Heat oil or butter in large (6 quart or more) pot and
saute onion and garlic until soft but not brown. Slice leeks thinly with
another third of the garlic cloves (I use the food processor again, with a
#2 slicing disk, but any slicing disk works fine, as does a knife), and
add to the pot. Saute until soft. Remove the stem and seeds from the
ancho peppers. Add the tomatoes, broths and water to the pot; then add
the herbs and ancho peppers. (I always have cheesecloth around, so I
usually chop up the fresh herbs and put them with the dried ancho pepper
in a piece of cheesecloth that I tie up like a bag; this makes it easy to
fish the herbs and ancho out at the end, which makes the soup prettier.)
Bring to a boil, cover the pot, lower the heat and simmer for two hours
until the onion and leek have pretty well melted into the soup. If
fishing the herbs and ancho pepper out of the soup isn't too messy, do it
now. Slice the reserved garlic very very thinly, and add to the soup pot.
Add water if it has gotten too thick. Simmer covered, for 30 minutes. If
you are going to save the soup and serve it tomorrow, stop here, cool and
refrigerate it. Otherwise, keep going. 10 minutes before serving,
uncover the pot, taste the soup, season with salt and pepper and bring to
a rolling boil. Add the macaroni, and cook for a couple minutes less than
you usually would, because you aren't going to drain it. Or, cook the
macaroni separately and add it just before you ladle the soup into bowls.
Grate a little parmesan cheese over the top, if you like.
NOTE: Tomato broth: I use a recipe adapted from one of Molly O'Neill's
Sunday New York Times Magazine columns: for one quart of tomato broth,
chop four pounds or more or fresh or canned plum tomatoes (or use 4 lbs of
Pomi tomatoes in the box, which come already chopped), and put in a 4
quart pot with 1 teaspoon sea salt, 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh basil, 1
Tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, and 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary.
Bring just to a boil, stirring, and then strain immediately through a fine
mesh strainer (stirring the mixture from time to time with a wire whisk
will help it get through the strainer.)
