Chicken trigonometry soup is a motherfucker to make, and then 98 percent of people don’t eat it, why do we have this in schools.
I can't believe you'd go off on such a wild tangent about this. It's as if you didn't see that all the sines were pointing toward it being delicious! You'd eat the whole thing in 10 secents!

A part of me wonders if people would be game to start a starter and try a sourdough loaf. But that a) requires a week of feedings and b) a dutch oven (or I suppose you could sort of cobble together an ovensafe pot and lid or cast iron pan) and is definitely more of a commitment. But maybe it's feasible with a non-sourdough crusty bread option for those who don't want a starter
I tried out the spaetzle soup recipe, though I took a shortcut and used a batch of frozen turkey stock I made a while ago. That also meant I could use one of those supermarket ready-made chickens for the meat. Everything else I went for like the recipe; I was excited to make the spaetzle; it’s somerhing I’ve only tried once before. It turned out real nice. Filling and really savory.
Also, hi. First time posting in this thread; the concept really spoke to me.
I want to say that I'm really happy for this thread. I love to cook, but sometimes it's real tough to come up with ideas for what to make during the week.

One thing I really want to make soon is bouillabaisse.
Or at least some of the rouille that goes on the bread.

I'm glad! I was falling into a heck of a routine as well. Which I do enjoy (I can eat the same thing for lunch and dinner for nearly a week straight and not get bored) but is really limited.

Ooooh yes, that sounds lovely. I'll add that to the list. Which I should probably sort into some sort of order... maybe by coin toss?
It occurred to me that there may be some people here who don't usually cook seafood, and it could be a fun thing to learn to do

If you're a meat-eater, the Serious Eats recipe for Moroccan Pot Roast is one of my very favorite things to braise. I generally content myself with mashed potatoes and spinach instead of the couscous, but it's a really delicious roast.
Another week, another SE++ cookalong. The theme this week was chicken ______ soup. I decided to make a chicken chile colorado noodle soup/stew. I would have used a wider variety of dried chilis, but the grocery store I had wanted to visit was closed, so I had to make do. Great smokey chili flavor, really rich. Definitely a recipe I'll continue to tweak. Next time I'd like to incorporate some additional fresh veggies, I just didn't think to grab them from the store.

i was going to do chicken soup
but summer has finally arrived and is in full swing and the thought of a hot bowl of soup is just, honestly, a little painful right now.

Here we go
Home made chicken n dumplings.
Came out much closer to a soup than is usual, but damned good.
The dumplings are basically pie crust
1 cup flour
2 tbsp butter
1 tbsp vegetable shortening
1tsp baking powder
1/4 cup whole milk
Mix the flour and baking powder together, mix in butter and shortening into flour to make a crumbly mixture. Add in the milk and make a dough. Rest the dough for twenty minutes while you bring your soup broth up to a simmer.
After resting, roll out to a 10x10 inch square, about 1/4 inch thick. Cut crust into 1.5 inch strips and then into 1.5 inch squares.
Add the dumplings into the simmering broth one at a time, cover and cook until dumplings are cooked through and puffed up. I'd say about thirty minutes because I did mine for twenty and they weren't quite done through.
For the broth I cheated and used bouillon cubes and water, but added in rosemary and thyme and sage. Onions, celery, carrots, mushrooms, and cubed chicken breasts.
Pie crust? In soup? SOLD. I can imagine the taste and it's awesome
And jgeis those little wheels are rotelle pasta, right? (I had to google "wheel pasta" to check ) I've never used them before, but they look tasty
I must be in a very starch-craving mood!
How's this for the next few weeks?
This coming week (Feb 8): beef bourguignon (braising request, and there seem to good mushroom bourguignon variants for vegetarians)
Week after (Feb 15): baguettes/crusty bread (a good set up for the next week - I happen to have a great gluten free version too)
Feb 22: bouillabaisse (kosher recipes exist!)
I don't want to think too far ahead because more awesome ideas keep popping up and I'd much rather go with what the group is in the mood for at the moment rather than holding to something rigid. But maybe gumbo the week or two after that?
@SilverWind they are rotelle, although the package I bought referred to them simply as ruedas ("wheels" in Spanish).

UnbrokenEvaHIGH ON THE WIREBUT I WON'T TRIP ITRegistered Userregular
so I just watched a bon appetit video on different types/preparations of eggs, and one thing they showed was egg drop soup, which I had heard of but didn't really know what it was. That got me to researching a bit, and finding stuff like Stalian stracciatella where instead of just egg, they beat it with parmesan cheese and other seasonings before streaming it into the broth while stirring to cook it into thin ribbons, and Austrian and Polish versions that do similar things but also add a bit of flour to the egg, making a sort of on the fly dumpling/noodle
what I'm saying is, I've got a science experiment coming up this weekend
Chowder update: Simmering now and soon to be ready! I did make the mistake I always make when cooking things, which is "getting lazy and putting in less than adequately chopped pieces", so this is gonna be some thick, chonky chowder.

Well, it's not quite forty cloves. But there are some pretty beefy cloves up in the mix. I'm thinking that's a reasonable pile of cloves.
The Chicken ____ Soup in the Mittens household this week was BA's Tom Kha Gai. I pretty much followed it to the letter but added a bunch of rice noodles for some bulk and because rice noodles are delicious.
I was eyeing the chicken soup with couscous recipe that Silverwind linked, but wound up getting distracted by a different chicken soup on the Ambitious Kitchen site:
It was good! I left the sweet potato out and subbed in one large poblano in place of the jalapenos so it would stay cool enough for my wife to eat it. Would definitely make this or something close to it again.

In a desperate bid to appear healthy and in keeping with this week's cook-along, I will be making this for dinner tonight:
'Feel Better' Chicken and Ginger Soup
Also I'd like to suggest a curry week some time.
I'll definitely add curry to the list

Tldr - it is delicious but was pretty time consuming.
Tomatillos aren't easy to get here and I might not have time to trek to the Latin supermarket
How spicy is it? I have almost no tolerance but I want to build it up

If you want less spice just put in a half jalapeno instead of a full one.
One thing I really want to make soon is bouillabaisse.
Or at least some of the rouille that goes on the bread.

This is something that also crossed my mind, because while it is technically winter here, the estimated high for the next two days is 80F+.
Chicken consommé?
Chicken and slippery dumplings for dinner it is!
Pictures soon.

Someone said curry?
what I'm saying is, I've got a science experiment coming up this weekend
made the stock this evening
I've been in a funk this week so it took me a while to get in gear
Well, it's not quite forty cloves. But there are some pretty beefy cloves up in the mix. I'm thinking that's a reasonable pile of cloves.
Gonna have to toss those spotty ones, though.
