Chez Shamecca 😆 👍

Yes to soup. Yes to schmaltz. I’ll try those tips. I usually add fresh thyme, cumin seed, fennel seed and fenugreek but lots of room to experiment as I make bone broth pretty regularly. Thanks!

What a great recommendation. I decided to start making soup in 2020 at the Martin Luther King park right outside from scratch right on the park grill. I would love to talk to you about it some day and my reasons why. I love you ♥️🙏🏿 SB

What a beautiful and day-brightening essay Mecca, thanks so much! Hope you're feeling better now, and you couldn't be more right about soup and its profoundly restorative power -- especially if it's made by someone who loves you <3 Since the Husband and I are still coughing and sniffling our way through the butt-end of RSV, I think soup will be perfect for our dinner tonight! Now, what kind will I make...? :)

Thank YOU for the kind wishes and recipe link! We do have an Instapot but no mushrooms -- but next shopping trip I am getting some and totally making this in the near future, it sounds delicious! Tonight I think I've settled on minestrone/pasta e fagioli.
