Stinking Cilantro Soup! Arrrggggggg…
 
Well this one has been festering for a year and I am finally going to get my revenge! Yea that is right, I am looking for food revenge!

Last year our college and career class sponsored a chili cook off. Turkey Cilantro Soup won! Can you believe it??? SOUP!
Now I like soup as well as the next person and given a competition in which we were asked to cook soup, the offering might well have justified being mentioned with the rest of the good ones…. Though I am not even sure it was worthy of a win in a soup competition either! Harump!
Well these same wonderful people have decided to make it an annual event and this Sunday we will convene for a second round of Chili making and poor judgment. YES I SHALL enter the competition. HOWEVER, my offering will be styled

“REVENGE CHILI”

Yep that is right. It has been a year of “Turkey Cilantro Soup” comments and now I shall have my revenge!

I shall make a pot of Tomato Basil Soup with just a touch of cumin! Ha! Lets see who has the last laugh!

Felicity 01-22-2008 02:29 PM

LOL!

I love soup! I love cilantro! And I love turkey! So this sounds like a winner to me. However I am NOT a fan of chili. Never have been. I mean I like it. It's okay. But it's definitely not one of my fave things. However, I also love tomato & I love basil. So Tomato Basil soup sounds wonderful too!

I wish you great success Ferd! :thumbsup

Now don't be a sore loser IF, IF, IF you were to happen to lose. And don't let PRIDE keep you from posting it either.

Now I think I covered all the bases. :):carrot:

Ferd 01-22-2008 03:32 PM

soup!

Ferd 01-22-2008 06:09 PM

No soup for you!

Ronzo 01-22-2008 06:32 PM

I made spicy beef and lamb soup a couple weeks ago for church lunch... I didn't allow myself enough time for the chili I was attempting to make to reduce and thicken (since I don't cheat and add thickeners).

It was still a little watery and I was disappointed in it.

Felicity 01-22-2008 06:38 PM

I made a good Chicken Tortilla soup a couple weeks ago!

That is the beauty of tomato basil! dont take "chili time" and all I got to do is heat it, put a boat motor to it and spike it with cream!

Well I must say, I made a mean pot of Gumbo for a work day at the church last saturday.


I mean, MEAN. People that dont like Gumbo had 2 bowls. Pastor kept grumbling about eating too much.

I did my job.. hee hee.

commonsense 01-22-2008 09:22 PM

It's all good eats!!
I like Chili but the Chicken Tortilla soup sounds like a winner too.

Cindy 01-22-2008 10:35 PM

Texans know how to make some chili. In our little town we have chili cookoffs every year. People come from out of state just to eat........lol
Ronzo I imagine y'all do make some good chili in Austin too.
I won first prize for my chili recipe some years ago.
Just don't make it anymore.

Are you kidding? You don't give out your secret recipe for chili.

Cindy 01-22-2008 11:09 PM

Cindy 01-22-2008 11:09 PM

You are quite correct to feel slighted and indignant about this outrage, Brother Ferd! I find the selection of "Cilantro Soup" in a Texas Chili cook-off as being the work of sinister forces.

However, the Tomato Basil Soup, if fear, will only add to the backsliding. :theyareontome:

Felicity 01-23-2008 07:36 AM

The problem with chili is the beans. I don't care much for beans unless they're home baked beans with brown sugar and molasses and a little mushy. :thumbsup

Hey Ferd Ratatouille, in my family whenever it is cold or we are sick we make my mom's version of tomato BAY LEAF soup, you add grilled steak tips and potatoes, then dip rolled-up homemade flour tortillas that are lightly buttered, mmmm. I always add crushed chilies to mine. Works EVERY time. We call it Caldio.

My Grandfather used to eat a chili soup, but first would put a towel over his head and breathe in the toxic chili fumes????!!!!! He lived to be 102 so either that worked OR it was his drinking lots of tequila until his conversion at 65...lol.

I'd love to know how Turkey Cilantro Soup could possibly win a CHILI cookoff??? That's soup, not chili!! Someone needs to educate your judges.

So how do you make it without the beans?

Just the same as with the beans, except you leave out the beans! :heeheehee

Beans? No beans in my chili. I like baked beans too, and pinto with hamhock, cornbread and green onions, butterbeans, but do not put beans in chili. That's just wrong!

Felicity 01-23-2008 11:00 AM

The only kind of beans I really care for are home baked beans but I don't like them firm. I can't stand the texture and the "bite" for some reason. And I can only eat baked beans with bread. I have to have bread to go along with each spoonful of beans.

Haha! :)

Serious? Then what do you serve it with? Because without the beans it's just tomato sauce and ground beef basically. You have to serve that with or on something I would think.

What do I know? Sheesh! :mal I'm not a chili expert and hardly eat it. LOL. :)

StMark 01-23-2008 11:04 AM

what is the fascination with all of this ?

My son hates beans, so I just make it like I make chili all the time and just leave the beans out.

I will use sausage instead of ground beef, brown it with onions and green peppers, spices, chili powder, tomato sauce, Rotel, water and simmer. It's the same consistency as chili with beans.

You eat it in a bowl with crackers or cornbread or my kids favorite is to make cornmeal pancakes and serve the chili on top of them. Yummm!

One's fascination with chili is as one's fascination with Tulsa.
