Soups / Re: Melon Soup
« on: September 24, 2008, 12:24:58 pm »
Afternoon Thermomixer. Leaving the soup in the fridge, obviously makes it chilled. It's a summer recipe, to help us cool down. It remains the same in thickness, before or after being placed in the fridge. Also it does not change the taste.

Never freeze melon. It kills the taste, completely. As we all know, melon has a mild taste, so better to use only fresh ones. I would change some of the sparkling water to ice so that it is cooled, when served. The bubbles from the water will stay after coming out from the fridge.

Thank you for your questions. I hope to put more recipes in here soon.

Nice community  :)

Hally: i have not heard of TVP, sounds like an internet provider

Cuilidh: t is Textured Vegetable Protein, Hally.  Comes in various forms, in this case it is probably the 'mince' version - it is used as 'pretend meat' or meat substitute and made from soya beans.  You have possibly eaten it without knowing.  If you look closely at the ingredients of some foods in the supermarket (meat pies I think are often a case in point) you may see textured vegetable protein, or similar wording, listed, so now you know what you are (or, perhaps, are not) eating.

Bedlam: You could substitute tvp with quorn  mince too

Jude59: I think I might try this but use lentils instead of tvp.  Sounds nice.
