I put a couple of large chicken hindquarters and water into the
pressure cooker yesterday and let it go for almost an hour. That
wrung most all of the flavor out of the meat and bones.
Today I am making chicken vegetable soup with the stock from
yesterday. My vegetable soup generally ends up being what veggies are
available. Today was celery, carrot, onion, cabbage, frozen green
beans, frozen corn, some diced bell pepper, a couple small red
potatoes diced. I think that is all. I also put in a couple of bay
leaves and some thyme.
I would like to make this almost as thick as a stew but my husband
doesn't like a lot of "stuff" in his soup.
I'm looking forward to the soup for lunch when he gets in from
shoveling snow.
I think I will make chicken enchiladas with the meat. I know there
isn't much flavor in that meat but I hate to throw it away. Besides,
with some green onion, green enchilada sauce, cheese and a smidge of
sour cream inside the enchiladas it will taste good.
We were supposed to get 2 inches of snow and rain for the rest. So
far we have 9 inches of snow with a winter advisory through Monday for
up to 8 inches more.
We gotta fire that Weather guy!!!
