Turkey Soup

by Brad Keeton » Thu Dec 03, 2009 4:33 pm

Anyone have a good turkey soup recipe?

I've looked at the few options at FoodNetwork.com, but does anyone have anything better? I have the carcass (with bits of meat still attached) in the freezer to make scratch stock.

I know it's late (likely too late), but that's one dish for which I never use a recipe!

1. Simmer the carcass lightly for 2 hrs or so along with a quartered onion, some carrots (tops included if you have them), leftover celery, and any seasoning you like

2. Strain & save soup, tossing carcass & veges . . . refrigerate broth, & next day skim fat (if any)

3. Then, just use it, freeze it, whatever - sort of like chicken soup . . . for turkey we tend to add any leftover veges from the holiday, assorted pasta, maybe white beans, leftover meat, whatever - just go for it!

Andrew, your recipe sounds remarkably akin to mine.
