Favourite winter warmer food/drink
« on: 12 December 2006, 12:37:39 »
The weather round my way over the past few days has been really dreich (good Scots word, means dark, wet and windy) and prompted me to make my favourite winter warmer food - a large pot of home made broth using a ham shank (no Theo, your safe, its a pigs knee joint or part leg...) dried broth mix and a load of fresh chopped winter veg.

Just sitting down to some now...

Anyone else with a favourite?  drink, soup, main or pudding - whatever you enjoy most, generally, over the winter?

You know what I mean - if its [favourite thing] time, then winters here....

discuss......

Cadbury's Hot Chocolate topped with dozens of marshmallows, squirty cream and choco flakes. I'm a big kid at heart  :)

The ex-missus makes homemade chicken or turkey soup to die for  :y

Boils up the carcasses to get the stock and meat off the bones, removes the bones then adds loads of veg, lentils  and other good stuff - best soup in the Universe!!  :y :y :y

.........and the good thing is, she taught me how to make it  ;) .......can't get mine exactly the same though but working on it.  :)

You had better try Burton Bridge - Thomas Sykes Beer -- 10.2% draught  :o

It's got my vote .

Muligatawny soup or a big bowl of chilli, served with a granary french stick. You can't beat it for warming you up after work on a cold day.
