z-no-archive: yes

I'll start off by apologizing to Wendy for all the traif.

I started out planning this, because I believed I had all the
ingredients in the house:
http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/fo...-Bisque-104123

I had bought U.S. shrimp instead of Costco's from Indonesia and all I
could get raw was peeled already, so no go this time.

I can't wait to try it that way next time. It inspired me to modify my
winter pumpkin andouille sausage soup, and instead I made pumpkin and
shrimp bisque with chorizo, which is fabulous with shellfish, IME.

I sauteed some garlic, two chopped shallots, chopped celery and two
cubed chorizos (about 6" long each) and adding some white wine when they
were softened a bit.

Brought that to a boil briefly, then added two cans of organic pumpkin
puree, some really lousy store bought chicken stock (I had to add a lot
of Better Than Bouillon chicken paste later, out of home made stock). I
tossed in two bay leaves and a couple of sage sprigs and some salt and
black pepper and brought it to short of a boil, then set it all teh way
to the lowest heat and let it sit, covered on low until Tom got home,
worked out, and felt like eating.

I then sauteed the lb of shrimp with a small handful of chopped fresh
sage leaves in EVOO and dumped them into the soup, after adding a cup of
heavy cream. Let it sit a few, then we ate.

Very warming, rich and wonderful meal on a cold, rainy NY day after
Memorial Day with the heat on and grey skies.

Sounds good, and I envy you the cold, rainy day. Hasn't been too bad these
past few days but his San Joaquin Valley is hot and supposed to be 100 by
Friday. I hate the heat. :-)

Hi Cheri,

This stuff helps you take extremes of hot and cold. "Suppose"
to help with Diabetes too (haven't confirmed). But I can
confirm on the hot and cold.

I will mind my own business now. (Perhaps.)

I heard that too Cheri. I can't say I'm looking forward to 100
degrees though.

It has been weird. Going from this cooler temp for this area to that in a
day or two.
