Guest guest Posted May 17, 2003 Report Share Posted May 17, 2003 Hi Liz, A friend from another group (organic homesteading gardening) sent these instructions (it is not really a recipe) which may perhaps be useful for you. Good cooking! Mirian / Brazil " The one I made mostly was whatever dried vegetables I had on hand, a handful of chicken boullion (the granule type) and powder on high in the blender, I added two or 3 handfuls of other mixed dried veggies little and broken angel hair pasta pieces and then poured into a glass quart jar and shake it occasionally to get a good mix instead of the good stuff being at one end or the other of the jar. I posted this a week or so ago and I think it is good enough to post again, though Dee probably has them in our files already *S* Homemade Cream of Soup Mix 2 cups powdered soy milk 3/4 cups cornstarch 1/4 cups vegetable bouillon granules 2 tablespoons dried onion flakes or 1 teaspoon of onion powder 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed 1 teaspoon dried basil or marjoram, crushed 1/2 teaspoon black or white pepper Combine all ingredients and blend until mixed. Store in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 1 year. This recipe makes 3 cups and is enough for 9 cans of soup. To substitute for one can of condensed cream soup: In a 1-quart saucepan or microwave safe bowl, combine 1/3 cup of soup mix and 1 1/4 cup water. This can also be used as a quick fat free gravy, thin to the consistency you prefer. The variations are endless, use your imagination and experiment with different ingredients. For example, instead of thyme and basil, substitute 1-teaspoon dry mustard and 1 teaspoon dill weed. You might like to add up to 1/4-teaspoon garlic powder to the dry soup mix. For another option: add a couple of tablespoons of any dried vegetable flakes to the dry soup mix. Asparagus Soup--add 1 cup cooked chopped asparagus Broccoli Soup--add 1 cup of cooked, chopped broccoli Carrot Soup--add 1 cup of cooked, chopped carrots Celery Soup--add 1/2 cup sautéed, minced celery Creamier Cream Soup--add 1 tablespoon of butter to any of the variations Low Sodium--substitute equivalent amount of low sodium instant bouillon Mushroom Soup--add 1/2 cup sautéed, finely chopped mushrooms Mushroom and Roasted Garlic Soup--add 1/2-cup finely chopped mushrooms plus 1 or 2 roasted garlic cloves Onion Soup--add 1/2 cup of sautéed, chopped onions Roasted Garlic Soup--add 2 or 3 roasted garlic cloves Tomato Potato Soup--add 1/2 cup diced cooked potato plus 1/2 cup finely diced and seeded tomato Tomato Soup--add 1/2 to 1 cup finely chopped and seeded tomato Potato Soup--add 1 or two tablespoons instant mashed potatoes, 1/2 cup mashed potatoes or cooked diced potatoes Vegetable Soup--add 3/4 cup cooked mixed vegetables You can also dehydrate veggies and then reconsitute them before using " - boardinglizard <boardinglizard Tuesday, May 13, 2003 1:08 AM Hey > I'm new to this group, and I'm also a vegetarian.
