Real-Deal Tortilla Soup for Souper Sundays
I am
such a bad food blogger.
I made this soup three weeks ago. I had every intention of posting!
...And then I didn't.
Ah, well.
No time like the...blah blah blah.
I've become such a fan of Serious Eats over the last year. I think a third of my bookmarked recipes come from them.
And despite Matt not being much of a soup fan (I know, I cry a little on the inside, too), he was
very interested in this one.
Bonus? I finally got to use the Michael Chiarello method for slicing corn kernels from the cob!
I think the only changes made were using some already-cooked (and smoked) chicken for Matt, tortilla chips instead of frying fresh...and of course, leaving out that foul cilantro.
OH!
And blue potatoes. Come on; look at that beauty!
Really fabulous & quick soup. Deep flavor - it has a
lot going on. And so filling!
DEB!!! I AM HERE!!

Feel Better Soup
Last weekend, Matt came down with...something. I don't know if chicken soup really is the cure-all to end-all, but I'd recently made a smoked chicken stock (remains of a whole chicken Matt had smoked with many vegetables & herbs), so it seemed...
