thyme – Soup Kitchen Recipes

Corn Chowder

Mirepoix: red onion, celery, red bell pepper, jalapeno pepper (the “Hot Holy Trinity”). Roasted corn, cauliflower, potato, garlic, dill, thyme.

The little bite from the jalapeno did the trick. Well received.

Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Mirepoix: yellow onion, celery, poblano pepper. Broccoli, red bell pepper, cheddar cheese, hondashi (bonito bouillon), dill, thyme.

Rutherford B. Hayes was a great admirer of the power of broccoli. Or so I hear.

Mirepoix: red onion, celery, red bell pepper, carrot, poblano pepper, parsley. Beef, potato, asparagus, blue berries, chopped walnuts, fish sauce, worcestershire sauce, garlic, fresh oregano, fresh thyme, fresh rosemary, sugar.

A blueberry by any other name would taste as sweet.

Fish Chowder

Mirepoix: red onion, carrot, celery. White fish, roasted eggplant, mushrooms, red and green bell pepper, potato, milk, turmeric-ginger milk, thyme, dill, turmeric, ginger, garlic.

I think I’ve mentioned it before, but sometimes we get some pretty whacky donations. Simply had to use that turmeric-ginger milk.

Seafood Chowder

Mirepoix: yellow onion, celery, red bell pepper, parsnip, carrot. Potato, zucchini, clams, white fish, clam juice, milk, fresh basil, chive, dill, thyme.

A hit. Had clients coming back for seconds.

Manhattan Tomato Seafood Chowder

Mirepoix: yellow onion, carrot, green bell pepper, jalapeno pepper, celery. Tomato, frozen breaded shrimp, frozen breaded squid, potato, tomato paste, tomato bouillon, thyme, garlic.

When I walk in, I have no idea what ingredients will be available. Sometimes it’s a bit funky, like breaded shrimp and squid. Just gotta think, “can do”.

Almost Asian Fish Stew

Regular mirepoix. White fish (the package had no label–maybe it was cod), eggplant, yellow bell pepper, carrot, fish sauce, lime juice, sriracha, fresh lemon thyme, fresh Thai basil, ginger, paprika, garlic, cinnamon, chive.

Vegetarian Chowder with Shiitake

Mirepoix: yellow onion, carrot, green bell pepper, milk, corn starch, potato, corn, shiitake, eggplant, thyme, dill, garlic.

Pretty straightforward. Probably would have been better if I had sauteed the shrooms in butter first, but oh well.
