About Me
ciao totti...i can put very nice things in my profile about me right you will believe it?!! think about it!!...here is something better for you *LETTUCE SOUP* Ingredients:1 large head Romaine lettuce, about 1 pound (all leaves including outer ones) 2 cups milk 2 chicken stock cubes (Knorr) dissolved in 2 cups boiling water 1/4 cup butter 1 Tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 3 Tablespoons cold water 1/4 cup lemon juice Melt butter in large pan. Add torn lettuce leaves. Toss in butter on low heat until leaves are wilted. Add milk and chicken stock. Bring almost to a boil. Allow to cool, then puree in blender until no lettuce pieces remain. Return to pan and bring to a boil. Add lemon juice and cornstarch to thicken. Simmer for 3 minutes.
Soup can be served immediately, but best flavor develops if left overnight in the refrigerator. From here, it can be served chilled or reheated and served hot.
LETTUCE SOUP This soup is a great way to use lettuce's outer leaves and ribs, which usually go to waste. Any kind of potato and any salad greens, including lettuce, arugula, spinach, and watercress, will work fine. 1 cup chopped onions, scallions, and/or shallots 1 garlic clove, chopped 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 3/4 teaspoon ground coriander 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 3/4 cup diced (1/3 inch) peeled potato 8 cups coarsely chopped lettuce leaves including ribs (3/4 lb) 3 cups water
Cook onion mixture and garlic in 2 tablespoons butter in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add coriander, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in potato, lettuce, and water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until potato is very tender, about 10 minutes. Purée soup in batches in a blender (use caution when blending hot liquids) and transfer to a 2- to 3-quart saucepan. Bring soup to a simmer, then whisk in remaining tablespoon butter and salt and pepper to taste.
Makes 4 servings.
