| Japanese Dish Soup. |
A hearty bowl of soup or stew is always welcome at any table. Be creative and use various leftover meats and vegetables with your favorite stock and create your own unique recipes. When preparing soup or stew, try to allow extra time for it to "simmer". This allows flavors to blend and the meat to be tender.
Helpful Hints:
1. To thicken stew, mix 1/4 cup flour with enough cold water to forma thin paste. Gradually add it to the stew and stir till thickened.
2. If using fresh parsley or herbs in your recipe, add them in the last few moments of cooking to preserve flavor.
3. Save any leftovers for the next day. The flavors increase overnight in your refrigerator.
4. Canned stewed tomatoes or water with bouillon seasoning and spices added make great stock starters for soups and stews.
