So, I’ve got pneumonia and am the only one who can cook in my household. I was told strictly to stay in bed and basically not do anything, but I’ve gotta eat and I’d like some good veggie soup. Any suggestions for how to make something quick and easy? I’ve got some good veggie stock already in the freezer thankfully but how can I quickly add to it to make it more filling? Are frozen veggies a good option? Egg noodles? It doesn’t have to be delicious, just easy and edible
Best experience? Miso soup with winter veggies dropped in.
Easiest? Mirepoix and just throw in whatever you like. Start or finish with a dry, yeasted cooking alcohol, and top with some some fresh herbs.
What is a dry yeasted cooking alcohol? I’ve got nutritional yeast and baking yeast, but I’ve never heard of dry yeasted alcohol
Salted rice wines specifically made for cooking by fermenting with yeast. Salted Mirin, Shaoxing Wine, some types of Sherry, or what might be labeled as “Salted Wine”. Don’t get the sugary crap called Mirin in the US. It’s gross.
