Heyooooooo!!!
I love the way you chopped those veggies! My husband is a chef and he never did it that way or showed me! Now I'll never do it another way and can easily make these to save and store in the refrigerator to cook with later. I normally hate all the prep work chopping and slicing, but I think this is going to make my life a little easier. Thank you once again!🥰
Great tips! Thanks! 😊
Nice chopping skills! Basic ingredients for much of the soups made in the US Armed Forces. But we used a Buffalo chopper instead. Nicely Done!
Hi Daniella.
This is my general go to soup mix. I usually use a medium sized carrot or 2 baby and 1 medium onion. The celery depends on how I'm feeling on the day 🤔
As far as the garlic goes, we both know garlic cloves come in odd sizes depending on the variety of the garlic. I try to avoid commercially grown and if available opt for organic heirloom variety. The flavour and aroma is far more superior.
My mother would make garlic sandwiches. Just slices of garlic with a sprinkle of salt on buttered bread. Whatever she was trying to keep at bay, it worked, including me ☹️.
Thanks for the cutting tips.
Cheers 👍😀🤤😸
I love adding soffritto to my soups, but I never thought about finely cutting my vegetables like that! I’m gonna try your tip next time! Thx Dani 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love this! Can use for most anything! Thanks for the chopping tips very helpful! ❤️🐈⬛
