All; Overlooked tubers; Turnips are good in stew and soups. You can slice noodles made of rutabaga and use them in your soups or stews. And of course are great springtime prepper food that grows quickly!
And a link works fine. Whoever wants can just download the book. Right now storage is cheap. I just downloaded it to my computer and it will end up on my backup.
"Looks like the fireworks’ ‘ground show’ is having some issues, LOL!"
I know, it looks like dropped cluster munitions or a heavy firefight, but its just New Years Midnight celebration in "Littleton" Town Center with a 2" tall rock band and their laser light show!
I’ve been switching more and more to canned carrots. Not as good as fresh, but they’re easy to use and widely available.
What a RELIEF, LOL!
I’d hate to see the whole fireplace mantle go up in flames!
My project was making ham stock to make a ham/bean soup recipe so I wanted carrot/celery trimmings for the stock. I didn’t really drive 8 miles out of the way just for a bag of carrots because I wanted to go to walmart to get a wireless mouse for work and that grocery store is on the way. It was more a commentary on the sad state of the closer store. The whole carrots were a better deal though too.
We ate canned veggies of all sorts for 20+ years but I’m getting sick of easy button foods. That was the ex-wife’s thing. Canned, boxed, fast. If we had a really good meal, I was the one who made it but it probably wasn’t a cheapo meal.
I’m working on cheap and yummy.
Just perusing the wikipedia pages for List of Soups and List of Stews and saw Booyah or Booya. You know anything about that? It’s a Wisconsin thing.
Couple of days to cook, multiple cooks, stirred with canoe paddles, feeds hundreds.
Fundraiser for fire departments, etc.
The Move! Congratulations! And you are moving away from the not well taken care of house next door and those “odd” shooty neighbors up the road!
It’s s Northern Wisconsin Thang. While we DO have a cabin ‘Up North’ I don’t think the guys do this at Bear Camp.
If and when I get recruited as Head Cook (it’s coming; I’ve avoided it SO FAR) I’ll make sure it’s a Bear Camp Tradition.
Here’s more info and a scaled-down recipe that feeds TENS, versus HUNDREDS:

Its a good plan. You can refrigerate carrots for a long time, but cans of carrots last even longer. And if you lose electricity you can power up the can opener to access part of a meal!
Note to self; The 6 qt instant pot is not quite big enough for 2 lbs of beans plus soup veggies and meat. The 8 qt would be just about right.
Yes!
Wikipedia actually said hundreds or even thousands which I thought was a bit over the top. Unless it was done as a perpetual stew back in the day. Sounds kinda the same anyway.
Booyah sounds a lot like French prounounced "bouillion", but its not broth, but an actual Stew.
Booyah. Probably a lumber camp thing along with buckwheat pancakes.
My wife cooks soups then cans them. They taste great years after.
Yeah my wife’s potato soup is exactly like this except she uses canned potatoes produced from our garden.
Yummy
That’s a great idea. When I get some canning jars back I might do that. I noticed when I can stocks it becomes even more flavorful. Soups would probably be the same.
