Dont have the fucking patience to cook soup. I do stews, mostly beef stew style, on occasion. I also learned how to make a spicy crab chowder from my mom. You just do it like new England clam chowder with traditional crab spices, old bay, and a little red pepper.

They're my favourite soups, but I tend to make them with a soup starter because lazy/dunno any better.

Soup is one of those dishes that's good to cook when you have any leftover meats or tons of vegetables that need to be put to good use.

I'm the type of person that uses EVERY part of the vegetable and animal. Broccoli stems, carrot shavings, carrot ends, the ends of the asparagus that are too tough for consumption... If I'm not saving it to put in a veggie smoothie, I use it all to put it in a soup.

Same with animal parts. Every Thanksgiving, I ask for the leftover bones from the turkey or ham, and I use that to make soup stock out of. Any time you eat an animal with bones, you should always use those bones to make your stock.

But I totally love this. I hate wasting food so much. I hate wasting about anything.

You just straight boil the bones for a few hours or what?

So I did that this Thanksgiving too, and after a few hours of reducing, your soup stock should look white and creamy like this

Does anybody know how to make a basic chicken noodle soup without using canned or pre-made broth?

Is it possible for it to taste just like chicken noodle using only chicken, water, and salt if you spend at least a couple hours making a reduction out of it?
