First soup of the winter

Ooooh! I've got some smoked haddock in the freezer

What does the panel think about defrosting it, making the soup, freezing it and then reheating it in portions? Safe/Not safe?

I've just made a leek and potato soup, with homemade chicken stock. I have a meringue in the oven and the scallops and bacon will be going on when Mrs R gets back. It's all a bit Delia here.

How boring!
With your avatar you should be making a melange of semi-poisonous mushrooms, chicken spleens wrapped in sycamore leaves with some beech cankers on the side

And not a single bit of offal in sight...

Thanks panel

I'm never sure on the rights and wrongs of defrosting/cooking/refreezing meat and especially fish.

Excellent 'cuisineage' longers!

Got any chocolate? I don't eat the other stuff...

Not the first this winter but just had roast dinner soup!

 

[Speck]

Had French Fish Soup yesterday, really warms you up!

 

[Rhythm Thief]

We've just had the last of the turkey, cranberry and parsnip soup I made on Boxing day with the stock from our turkey carcass. Just got a bit of christmas pud to eat now, then outr christmas dinner is finally finished! Oh, apart from the remains of the stuffing, which I'll be using to stuff a loin of pork.

Excellent, any chance of a quick outline of the recipe.


Cheese and leek is my favorite at the moment.

When you said 'quick' I assume you didn't mean two months later

This is the recipe she used in case you're still interested. My stomach recommends it. A lot.

And again, nothing if not consistent. This one's got added cauliflower cheese too.
