A Tasty Cross Between Stew and Soup
You might have seen stoup recipes on the internet and wondered about the term. This word is slang for a combination between stew and soup and it is sometimes spelt “stewp.” Stew is usually thick and chunky, whereas soup is thinner and eaten with a spoon. This is an easy one-pot meal, which can feature fish, poultry or meat, vegetables and maybe a tomato-based broth or a creamy one.
You can serve stoup with crackers or bread. A basic salad on the side can make stoup into a complete meal, which is flavorful and nutritious. Some people claim that a stoup recipe should be like a thickened soup because anything thicker is technically a stew. Other people think that it is more like a thin, watered down stew.

French Onion Soup
French onion soup is one of the most celebrated in the world, yet its full possibilities are often overlooked. It makes an excellent entree for a family supper or a fine conclusion to a late evening gathering. Embellished with freshly grated Gruyere and crusty sourdough bread, the rich beef broth and sweet onion rings make a substantial meal. All you need to add are a crisp green salad and a fresh fruit dessert. This recipe should be served casserole style. Let it brew unattended in an ovenware pot until ready for its last-minute garnish.

Most days, I need to get in, get out, and get the family fed, all in less than an hour. Read the rest of this entry »
