This does look delicious, Meryl - think I'll make it this week. It also would be good with ...
big chunks of tender chicken breast (done in crock pot?). Love the blog - great photos! I'll let you know how it turns out. Thanks for the link!

Lol! I initially read that as PHeasant Soup. Thanks for the link Meryl...
it's the first hometown foodie blog I've seen! It sure is nice to be able to relate to the content and hear about grocers/producers/restaurants that are accessible to me. A couple of the ones mentioned are only about 2 blocks from my place - Yeah!

I couldn't stand it - got a pot of stock on right now - this is on the menu for tonight....
I pulled the cookbook from the lady that ran first a place called the Soup Kitchen then Old Heidelberg restaurants here in town (sadly it closed over a year ago when someone bought the building). Anyway, her soups were always so WONDERFUL and never the same twice but often looked much like this. She didn't have any of her good soup recipes in the cookbook but did have her chicken stock which was a little different than normal so I am starting wit it and will let you know how it goes.

It was a HIT w/my company & even picky DH.....
I made the chicken stock from the recipe by the lady that used to own the Soup Kitchen and the Old Heidelberg restaurants here in town (had some unusual spices - lots of peppercorns, whole allspice, and cloves). Then I proceeded with the recipe and used some South African boerewors which is what I could find and from all I can tell is very similar if not exactly like the German Farmer's Sausage - Boervors.
However, I did use a small dice russett potato rather than red skinned. For some reason, the lady that ran the OH used them and I like the creamy/mealy texture of them in her soups better than I like the waxiness of the reds.
Anyway you look at it, it was a hit and my uncle's wife and daughter had to have the recipe. The big surprise was DH liking it because he is NOT a soup person so that says a WHOLE LOT about this recipe. It's a keeper.
