I made delicious vegetable soup.
I started with stock I made last week. I roasted carrots, onions, parsnips and garlic from our farm share and when they were nice and brown,
I covered the roasted veggies with water in a huge stock pot, and cooked them until I was tired of smelling the broth. I ended up with two gallon size freezer bags of stock.
Tonight, I roasted two butternut squash, sauteed cut up leeks in olive oil, and threw everything in a large stock pot with one freezer bag of stock, a cut up head of cauliflower and five diced potatoes.
I used my new stick blender to blend but not puree the veggies, and it was a little bland, so I added a nice big hunk of mild white miso.
Pete bought us a small wheel of camembert and a loaf of crusty bread, and we had a delicious dinner.
