    I make what I call “odds and ends soup” with whatever I have left just before my next 2 weekly shop. It’s a great way to make sure you have minimal food waste. I call the yellow neep a Swede and the white one a turnip. The ends of the bread I call crust. Love your vlogs they really inspire me to live as frugally as possible, so I won’t run in to difficulties when I get older and retire hopefully. I particularly like watching budget food shops that then show what you can make with the food you have. Would be good to hear about the charities you donate to, I think it is so amazing that you do this, but I also think you should keep a little bit of the money you earn you deserve it with all the hard work you put into these vlogs. I look forward to your future vlogs ☺️

    My grandma ( a Scot) used to make soup on top of her heater. It would sit and simmer all day. Basically homemade stock, onions, and whatever veg she had on hand except for lamb stock. Then she threw in barley. Always delicious.

    Freezer soup is a favourite here. Thanks to Sue (blogger) I now keep a bag of raw vegetable ends in my freezer and this forms the base of our soup when the bag gets full. I often add some red lentils to this soup. It never tastes the same twice as the veg combo varies but is mostly root veg. As the veg are chopped gradually this also helps my arthritic fingers.

    I also make " odds and ends" soups, most vegetables work, but I don't put cabbage/ broccoli type veg in, unless a standalone like cauliflower and cheese soup. I always start with sauteed onion; if I want a dark soup, I let it caramelise a bit before adding liquids. I have a stick blender, best gadget I own. Home-made soup keeping us warm on the inside, nutricious, and you know what's in it!

    Down here on the SE Kent coast we would call the ends of a the bread crusts although I think many in Scotland call that heels. Its always confusing re turnips, they are to me the smaller white mauve vegetables, the ones they call neeps in Scotland are swede. i do often make soup, mostly I blend it and really its anything left in the fridge veg wise come Monday. I like the idea of the roux and whilst hesitant might even try marvel.

    Hi Ali, I am 62, attended school in Aberdeen and at age 12-13 made "20 Minute Soup". It must have been on the national syllabus. Unfortunately mine was not as successful as yours. It was the worst thing I made in two years of Food and Nutrition as it was called then. I took it home from school and none of the family could stomach it, not even my grandad who had survived the trenches in WWI. It was so slow when we tried to pour it down the sink that we said it had got its name because it took 20 minutes to go down the drain! We were a traditional home made soup Scots family and at that age I could probably have made four or five different soups at home without needing a recipe. I think the 20 min soup that I made had too much veg for the amount of liquid, resulting in unseasoned, undercooked veg in milky water, and the roux hadn't been sufficient to thicken it. Still, it didn't hold me back and I have a varied soup repertoire. The 20 Minute Soup became one of these in-jokes that all families have.
    As far as names go, definitely turnip or neep and agree to "a wee turnip" for the other type. Also at Halloween it was traditionally a neep lantern; our only knowledge of pumpkin in the 60s and 70s was its conversion to a coach in Cinderella. I do miss the characteristic smell of a proper neep lantern. As for the ends of a loaf, they are heels in NE Scotland. It's only a few years ago that I leaned that not everyone calls them that. It was on a TV programme and a middle aged English woman said she didn't eat the crusts of bread. I thought she was too old to be so fussy, as I was thinking of a small child saying, "I don't want to eat my crusts" and leaving the top and bottom of a slice. It was only as the conversation progressed that I realised she was referring to the heels of the loaf.

      Sorry but I'm laughing at your 20 minute soup!! To be fair mine wasn't that edible either until my parents suggested adding a stock cube with some more water and bingo, everyone loved it! Yep, crusts are the top and bottom bits of bread, the end bits were 'door stoppers' or 'endy bits' in our house!

    I love the idea of grating the veggies and imagine it would be a great ways to use up the bits and bobs of veggies at the end of the week. I love all soup and eat it often.Growing up they were always called them the "heels" of the bread. I love minestrone soup if homemade.

  • @patmartin9727

    I call most of my soups bottom of the fridge soup. I make it from all the salad and veg left in the bottom of the fridge or freezer. I love soup and have it for lunch most days at this time of year. I also sometimes have it with a toasted sandwich for a more substantial meal . I never peel veg unless the skins are very poor. I just give them a good scrub and cook with the peel on. Most of the goodness is just under the skin.
    We would call the end of the loaf the crust and as children we use to fight over who would get it. My late husband use to call it ends the heel of the loaf.

You cook like I do, measure with your eyes more than measuring tools. The soup you made looks good, I will try it soon, maybe will use coconut milk instead. And a heel of bread, is the best part and what we call it.

    We call the loaf ends crusts and of course you have to eat them if you want curly hair . As you can see from my photo mine curled right off ! I like this recipe and think I'll try to include some cubed pumpkin as well. We had nothing but minestrone soup on the ship we sailed over to Australia on circa 1964 ( the old Sitmar line) - so I have had my share of minestrone and don't want any more,. Do you have a separate pumpkin soup recipe ? The one I use is virtually pureed pumpkin with a touch of curry powder - but I'm in the market for a better one !

Having said that, I do eat it sometimes, though never make it myself (I don't have a hob, and only a small tabletop oven - plus a microwave and now an air fryer). I don't hate Minestrone soup but I wouldn't choose it over others - hmm, I think I'm really saying that I don't actually like it! One soup I used to enjoy at work, though, was spicy parsnip, with a nice bread roll.

I am 63 and I learned how to make a good cottage pie at school and used the same recipe over the years. Along with cooking with my mum, my nana I think cooking at school taught me such a lot in the 1970s. Thank you so much for sharing your soup recipe I am going to make it tomorrow.

However, I remember some time ago I found a recipe that I did like, but I can't find it again. I actually made some this week (using a random recipe) and we had it yesterday for dinner - but the rest has been frozen for my husband's work lunches!

      I was GF for about 6 years as gluten gives me digestive pain. I was dairy free as well! It took work but I managed it. I've switched back to using organic flour and limiting it and so far it seems to be working. I found that GF products with xanthan gum and other preservatives still upset my stomach so I switched back

      @ interesting. No tummy pains for me. Just fatigue like a hangover and tinitis and tingly face. I can have a bit here and there. But a wheat based meal, or a pie . No way

    Mouth watering for that soup😋 We call them turnips in the North East of England too. I think calling them swedes mightn't start till further south, maybe beyond Sheffield?

    What a simple but great idea. I'd love to have a go at making it. Must find something to chop/grate veg with. It's become more difficult with having arthritis in my fingers. How do you store the rest of it? Do you use soup bags for the freezer or just tupperware?

      Just buy a stick blender. Roughly chop the veggies and when soup is ready blitz it in the saucepan.

    In Canada we calls turnips turnips as well. Heel for the bread ends, and I love them toasted. I love your soup recipe and will try it. Once fall comes I could eat soup everyday. Split pea and ham is a favourite. I am not a minestrone fan but I don’t hate it. I just would not order it or make it.

    Thank you for sharing this...soup is always a welcome treat on winter days! Ali just a question. What spices did you use in it? Just salt and pepper?

    • @aliliveswellonless
      @aliliveswellonless  Месяц назад

      No spice, just the stock powder or you can use a cube. No salt or pepper needed unless you want :-)

    Happy Friday Ali and Luna! So glad to "hear" that Luna is back on her mischievous path. God bless her. I think grated beet root or yam would be lovely as well in your soup. We have what we call " bits and bobs" casseroles at our house as well. Have a blessed weekend.

    Do you have a good recipe for GF sourdough bread, which you can recommend? I think you mentioned GF in some video a while ago… 😊

    • @aliliveswellonless
      @aliliveswellonless  Месяц назад +2

      To be honest I didn't have much success with GF sourdough. There are loads of great GF channels but the one I used is Fresh is Real. She has some videos on making and maintaining a GF starter. Worth trying!

    I often make what I call 'veggie soup', but it differs in taste depending on what veg I have! Usually onions, potatoes, carrots and whatever else is hanging around, plus some stock/water.
    I also dislike minestrone soup!
    Thanks for the video 😊

    We love soup, and we're now into soup season so I'll be bubbling up a lot of cauldrons from now on. Here in Dublin, my family always called the ends of bread, the heels. The yellow turnip was always just turnip to us, and to be honest I rarely ever see white turnip these days. Our favorite soup is veggie, I chop up as many root veg as I have, sweat it in a little oil, cover with greaseproof paper and the lid for 20 mins to release the flavours, then add stock, bring back to the boil and simmer for another 15-mins or so then whizz it until it is smooth, and just add salt and pepper - boom! Gorgeous! I never add flour, as I let the potatoes do the thickening, but I do add cornflour to Chowder, another family favorite using milk instead of cream.
