Trust the Ferret, the Ferret is Wise

I would have to say my experiment in soup-making was a marginal success. It's tasty, but it doesn't look too great. It was fairly simple stuff, a thing of vegetable broth, plus a bag of "soup mix" beans, and then some carrots and a potato and some green beans and stuff. The problem was I left it alone too long, or there was just too much stuff in it, so some of the stuff on the bottom turned into basically mush. But it's pretty tasty, and now I have three Chinese food quart containers of soup to stick in the fridge and eat over the next few days. In the future, I think I'll add a little less "stuff" to it, to leave more room for the broth. This ended up being a lot like stew in thickness. Which isn't bad, but. Maybe half the bag of beans next time.
