It’s soup season
November 19th, 2008 @ 13:47It’s now two weeks until the big move. I have great plans for out future! I have however pretty much stopped eating cooked food. It’s been an endless period of french fries, sandwiches, burgers, mac and cheese… the list goes on. It’s soup season damnit, what’s wrong with me?
I have been eating some soup, mostly at work while cooking for the woman I care for and her guests. Tonight I’m cooking some Ezo Gelin Corbasi, a turkish lentil soup with rice and bulgur, seasoned with mint and with that some bread. I’ve eaten this soup before but hadn’t a clue what it’s called. A few weeks ago I found a recipe at Binnur’s Turkish Cookbook tried it, and it was THAT soup. The glorious delicious soup I’d had before when I was much younger and visited Turkey on holiday. You should go over to her blog and check the recipe out, and her other creations too. People don’t eat enough Turkish food in my opinion, it’s very delectable.
To fit the soup theme, look at these gorgeous soup mugs I bought at a flea market this summer.







Mmm, soup! I mean noodle soup! I mean soup! (oh god, I watch too much Friends, I guess…)

Comment by Mihl - November 19th, 2008 at 3:38 pmGood luck packing and moving. My mum used to have (maybe still does?) some soup mugs just like that and I used to love using them. I need to scout around for a set of my own!

Comment by Melisser - November 22nd, 2008 at 6:14 amHow funny! Those mugs remind me of ones we had when I was growing up. I’m in agreement about Turkish food. Delish!
