I use a pound of mild Italian sausage, just pinch off small chunks and toss in.  If it was just for me, I'd use linguica. Also I get two huge russets otherwise use plenty of smaller potatoes.  I used canned white beans.  You'll need a large stockpot.


This is what I'm making today, with linguica. Thanks for posting the recipe - Mine didn't have vinegar in it, nice touch.

Thanks for the suggestion. Just tasted it and it seemed a little more bland than I had hoped. Contemplating making some sausage with a different profile to add in to it.

You bet. The recipe looks bland. I’d add some beef paste, and a couple pinches of dried red chile also. Play with it until it’s like you like.

Not a soup, but brown a pound of hamburger then toss in two or three cans
of pork and beans. That is the core. You can add onions, garlic, any spice you
want and any heat you want. Simmer it to the consistency you want. If you
need to add a bit of water, but just a bit.

Another great suggestion. I added more garlic, red wine and dried red chile flakes and that definitely helped. Beef paste incoming. I think it needs more herbs as well.

Cook time (2 hours) draws out of a lot of flavors.

I think it's fairly authentic, but the only soup my Ava would make is fish head soup.

Needs bell peppers as well.  Smoked sausage can be used instead of ground beef.

I slice the sausage into 1/4 inch thick rounds and cook on a rack in the oven to brown it and eliminate excess fat.

I'm sorry but bell peppers are a waste and should go extinct.

Anything you want to do with a bell pepper can be done better with a real hot pepper. Even if you don't want a lot of heat, you can get way more flavor out of like a poblano or something

No pics but had most of a whole roast chicken left over from Thanksgiving. I pulled all the meat off and broke up the bones and put them in a stock pot and boiled for a couple of hours, and then strained. Put the chicken meat in the broth with some celery, onions, carrots and garlic and cooked for about an hour and a half and made a really good chicken soup. I always take about 1/4 of the vegetables and put them in a blender and puree real good before adding them in, I think it helps with the flavoring.

Not so much about a recipe…
It’s all about the roux.
Make a dark roux, the color of an old copper penny.
Sauté your holy trinity in it until the veggies are soft.
Slowly add your stock to the roux so that it doesn’t clump up.

Real Cajuns will yell at me, but that was a chicken, sausage, and shrimp gumbo.
I added the sausage and chicken while the stock/roux was simmering.
Right before serving, I added the shrimp. Don’t want to overcook them.

Making a good gumbo isn’t rocket surgery, but it IS all about the roux. That’s what gives it the complex, deep flavor.

Update, for those that make try the Portuguese Kale soup, The suggestions above really improved the final dish.

The base recipe was bland, based on suggestions here I added vinegar, wine, extra garlic, crushed red pepper and beef paste. I also simmered it for a few hours.
My wife, who coincidentally returned from Portugal yesterday, loved it and she's a hard sell on soup.

Guess I missed this thread yesterday…I was busy making soup!

My brother hosted Thanksgiving this year, we had about 22 guests, one of which also brought a ham just in case the turkey wasn’t enough (I should add here that my brother is an actual chef and there was no chance of not enough food). In addition to copious leftovers, I scored both the ham bone and the carcass! Others there were a little confused about my excitement to take home the “trash.” I just looked at them and they said “I guess you guys don’t do much cooking at home, these are best leftovers of the night!”

Anyway, the ham went into the stock pot, and a few hours later we were enjoying some of the best damn red-beans-and-rice I’ve ever had.

I secured the Turkey carcass from our Thanksgiving Day feast.  Boiled it down for broth.

I'll give it a try.  I first had beans cooked this 50+ years ago.

Fairly certain poblanos weren't available around here. Buying a bell pepper wasn't really a thing either. They came from the garden or freezer, not the store.

For heat, I'm fond of Thai Dragons.

ETA I'm going to try these next summer.  My brother says they are really good.

Thai whitefish a la nage w coconut milk. Lime, chili, lemongrass, cilantro, shallot, fish sauce.

It's basically white fish poached in savory coconut broth steeped w the aromatics, but I always considered it a chowder, because I'm a Mainer. Warms you right up.

I cant even type this out without my mouth watering. It's so good.

I also make my thai chicken curry like a stew w Yukon gold potatoes and carrot, bell pepper. Household favorite.
