Decided to trial run a recipe for Creole Chunky Vegetable soup. Saute'd a bunch of julienned onion, bell pepper, celeriac, cabbage, and carrot with a handful of toasted oats before adding crushed garlic and sauteing another minute, deglazing with a splash of bourbon, adding ham stock and a tin of chopped tomatoes, throwing in my usual cajun spice mix, some salt and pepper and some MSG, hot sauce, worchestershire sauce, a half teaspoon miso and a glug of soy and cider vinegar as well as a squirt of homemade ketchup, and leaving to simmer with a bay leaf for half an hour, stirring every five minutes.
The result I literally just finished as I typed the above was fucking amazing. Perfectly spicy and had all the flavour I could ask for, and while my decision to julienne the vegetables was peak culinary autism on my part, I think it really does help the texture of the finished soup stand out from other chunky vegetable soups.
