Dad and I were discussing the "soup" that I made this morning for lunch,
it was basically a chicken and oriental veggie soup, but I like to leave
stuff in fork sized pieces... so he said it was actually a stew.
Hmmmm...

It included cubes of chicken thigh, celery, bok choy, onion, scallion,
garlic, and 3 different types of mushrooms including button mushroom,
straw mushroom and oyster mushroom. I then stirred some egg into it when
it was done and added some bean sprouts.

This makes me wonder, what defines a stew vs. a soup?
What is the difference between pan frying and pan broiling?
What is the difference between stir frying and sautéing?
