Re: Make your Own (soup)
In my previous (well) life I used to make huge stock pot of soup .. some to have that day, some to freeze, and some to give away. These days living alone it isn't worth making such quantity for me, and am not able to stand around for long in kitchen. So, a few weeks ago I bought a soup maker. It makes just a nice quantity for me a couple of portions ,and some to freeze.Of course, one only gets out of it what one puts in it .. but the machine does most of the work. I'm pleased with it.

I make lots of soup wouldn't dream of buying any. No stale bread croutons though I like homemade bread rolls or olive and tomato baguettes
It is nice to know that some people still like to cook and eat fresh food

Use the stems of broccoli and the leaves of cauliflower. ..too good to throw away.
Chop everything up stick in a large pan of water with a couple of stock cubes and a generous splash of passata and a teaspoon of sugar, bring to boil a simmer for an hour or so.
Thicken with cornflour and water mixture, check for seasoning.
Easy peasy and delicious!

When slow cooked the stock is full of calcium and turns into a jelly when coldl
Also if you make friends with the Butcher he will give you a bag of bones free.
