A recent copy of "Diabetics Forecast" had a tomato soup recipe I decided to try. I misplaced the issue so I had to see if I could remember the recipe. What I remembered was:
- ¼ cup Fennel
- 1 medium onion
- 2 celery stalks
The recipe called for sauteing these items for 7 minutes and till they were translucent. I was supposed to chop the items before sauteing but I didn't bother. Instead, I put them in the blender with about half the chicken broth and ground it up good. Then, this greenish and lumpy liquid when into a big sauce pan.
- 1½ pounds of tomatoes (I had about 1 2/3; pounds
- cook with the remainder of 2¼ cups of low sodium chicken brth
The recipe calls for cooking the onion, celery and fennel in about half of the "low sodium chicken broth" and then chopping up the tomoatoes and cooking them. After letting everything simmer for about 20 minutes, blend it.
I didn't have the patience to do the chopping or simmering os after blending the onion, celerty and fennel followed blending the tomatoe (with the remaining chicken broth) and then cooking for a while.
I didn't follow the directions but so what?
