That is extra fine. I want cuisine from the alley.
I’m not sure if that’s one recipe. Or two recipes. Or one and a half recipes.
This has done made my day.
Are you cooking or am I?
I’m not sure if I should use 1/2 st. of butter or 1 Butter. But when in doubt, I think use 1 Butter.
You or I cook 15 – 20 min.
And from what I could gather, consome de pollo is a complete and self-contained dish.
Hmmmnh. I was thinking chicken broth.
Never mind. Now I’m meditating on them 2 dice carrots.
Seven come eleven!
I think I could make this. I do.
It speaks to me. From the alley.
Yep, chicken broth makes sense. I also saw this.
All’s I know is next time a bunch of us get together, I’m making recipe from the alley.
You think 1 Butter or just 1/2 st. of butter?
I usually substitute olive oil for butter, but 1 Butter.
Danny makes stock with wings and thighs. Celery, carrots, parsley, a bottle of white wine and water. Salt, peppercorns. The amounts don’t seem to matter much. It fills the biggest stock pot he’s got. It simmers all day. The house smell will make you want to eat.
The pot goes in the fridge overnight. The next morning he strains it and it goes back in the fridge overnight. The next morning it is like chicken jello. Danny calls it liquid gold. We put it in bags and freeze it for future soups or (on rare occasions, gravy).
Sometimes, that pot is a bitch to clean.
Rick, I am going to copy that out in colored pencil on a sheet of ruled paper and put it in an alley.
