The weekends are a great time to not only pick up some new (sometimes decayed) food at Hollygrove, but also find out what has been decaying since the week before. Eating is a constant battle in our house, as food is constantly dying (but aren't we all?). This week past week was a great success: I had eaten almost everything from the week before. However, I had some herbs that had dried up within a day of taking them home, and six days later they were more like dried herbs than fresh. Never fear, I decided they needed to be re-constituted in some kind of broth, so I decided to make a soup. Fortunately, I also had some leftover lasagna noodles, and a dying purple onion, so I managed to kill off a lot of things.
Spring-Herb Soup:
- chopped herbs (I think I had some rosemary, basil, tarragon? They were so dead it was hard to tell)
- onion, chopped
- 1 Tbl butter
- 2c beef broth
- 1 egg
- cooked noodles (i.e. lasagna)
1. Cook the onions in butter until soft and browning, add the garlic and stir for a few minutes.
2. Deglaze the pan with broth and add herbs
3. While pot is simmering, crack and egg into it while stirring.
4. Add noodles, season with salt and pepper.
Considering my roommate took one look at my ingredients and said "Now THAT is offensive!", I'd say it turned out pretty good. I probably should have added some more stuff like siracha or soy sauce or...something.
