tammy Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Sol Food is the bomb! Big portions for what you pay so it's totally worth it. Sucks that it's not a hang out type of spot otherwise I would totally suggest an LST meet up there they deliver.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lochlan Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Marinated 13.34lbs of pork shoulder then slow cooked for eight hours in a water, jalapeno, garlic, leek broth. Soaked dried kidney and pinto beans in water for almost eight hours then rinsed and placed in boiling water until al dente. While the beans were cooking pulled the meat from the broth and cut the meat into chewable cubes as well as straining the broth to put just the broth on the side and in freezer for a future soup. Used some of the broth as a base for the chili by re-adding the meat, garbanzo beans, corn, minced garlic, jalapeno, new mexican hatched green chiles, tomato paste, salt, a chili seasoning packet and added the kidney and pinto beans after they were al dente and strained. Slow cooked for about three hours more and BLAMMO.....mmmmmm. Added cheese, tapatio, and sour cream with some sourdough to dip in it. Get some!

Lochlan Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Loch, do you use crock pot for your broths? i just bought a tiny one, and i'm wanting to experiment. any tips on making broths/stocks? yep yep, slow n low but that is for meat so don't know if you would want to do that with vegan stuff as the veggies would become mushy....hmmmmm, don't know if I can help. Tammy? Alanna? Anytime I've made vegan or vegatarian soups I've gone more on the food processor/puree side..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here were the ingredients: -Pureed corn, jalapeno's, serrano pepper, shallots, garlic -Sweated white onions in butter then reduced them in balsamic vinaigrette -Poached purple cauliflower -cooked cheese tortellini's in butter -Then mixed it all together! We all have colds right now so trying to sweat out this shit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
