Fresh hot Italian sausage on soft wheat bread baked this morning, with Grey Poupon country style on the bread.
It's a little high fat, I'll make it up tomorrow ... but there are no preservatives and the hot spices are fab for clearing the sinuses ... <G>
I used the rest of the 1.5 lbs chopped chunky into a pot of "15-bean" mixed beans with Cajun spices and chopped baby carrots.
Sounds tasty!
I like to get some Hot and Sour soup from the local chinese buffet when I have a cold. That stuff is GREAT for a sore throat and stuffy nose! -- Peace! Om

For a nasty cold I'll buy Tabatchnick at the store. It's in the frozen food section. I usually have so much chicken/beef stock in the house I'll make my own if I'm able to. Steven brings me hot and sour sometimes too. He's had a cold and I made him soup.

Man, I thought the sandwich was good, well the soup turned out amazing! I find that just a touch of something tomato-based gives it the tang it needs. (Some recipes for 15-bean soup call for lemon juice. I am more likely to have some medium salsa around than lemon, so that is what I use. Not much, just enough to give the soup a touch of color, a little tang, and a few little pieces of tomato and pepper and onion. I cook the beans very gently and do not overcook, so they stay whole and are velvety.

Mm, I have not been to a Chinese buffet in ages. Sounds like a plan for this weekend. I have actually never had Hot and Sour soup, the name puts me off. What does it actually taste like?

It's usually chicken stock based with some tofu, bamboo shoot and other sliced veggies and some times some thinly sliced pork or chicken. Our local place uses beef stock which IMHO is even better.
The "hot" comes from red peppers and the "sour" comes from vinegar.
Might not sound too good initially, but it's quite delicious and will clear the sinuses and soothe a sore throat. ;-) -- Peace! Om

Does Tabatchnick make sweet and sour soup? I have never seen it in New York markets. Laura next door has her whole freezer full of Tabatchnick soups and such other things as blintzes and pierogi and latkes. They are made by Mrs. T, I believe but are made by the same people.

I've never seen sweet and sour by Tabatchnick. Their chicken broth and split pea is really great for colds. I don't buy a huge amount of their frozen products but I've always got a supply of the soups in the freezer. I've bought other products but found my own are as good if not better. I don't mean that as it sounds but sometimes your own just tastes better.

Tabatchnick soups are good to have on hand, everything else they make I can do without.
I saw your post about your nice lunch with Steven. I was going to eat a small piece of left over roast veal, but Tandoora came into the kitchen when I stated to heat it and meowed until I cut it into a small mince and gave it to her. She literally vacuumed it up and didn't even say "thank you, Mommy". Instead she hissed at me and screamed for more. :o(
It's almost four and Marcel just finished lunch, the last piece of Passover Matzoh made into Matzoh Brei. Just Orange Juice and black coffee with it.

Actually, it sounds great. I don't think of vinegar as "sour" exactly, though I guess that is an accurate adjective. I think of bad milk and fresh lemons as sour.
I love vinegar as a seasoning for meat-based things, especially with some spicy heat, so this is right up my alley! (I am thinking now of the dish from the Phillipines, Adobo? Which has garlic and a bit of hot pepper and vinegar. Good stuff.

Do try hot and sour next time you hit a buffet. But be careful, it's addicting! Our local place has some of the best I've ever had and I can take it home for $3.00 per quart. ;-d
With a bag of crispies....... -- Peace! Om

One of our local supermarkets makes a good hot Italian sausage. It's great cooked over a hickory fire. Add the "soft wheat bread baked this morning, with Grey Poupon country style on the bread" and it would be even better.

I would have kicked it in the guts and told it to Hiss off :-)
Having said that, my pooch has had her morning (warm) porridge so I might just give her a frozen chicken frame, seeing as she's lying there in the sun!!

Mmmm.
Freshness is key, with the sausage. The stuff that is newly made bears no resemblance to the preserved, mass-produced, packaged stuff. Do you have Fresh Markets there?
As far as bread goes--I don't eat alot of it, but what I do eat I don't want to be more than 24 hours old. We have a Panera around the corner and an even better independent bakery.
I am not really a "name brand" person, but what is it with Grey Poupon? I have tried every kind of coarse mustard and none is even nearly as good. I kind of resent paying $3 for that little jar of mustard. I like quality, but I want a value, too.
