I was raised on beef tongue so getting used to it was never a problem. In fact, as kids we used to fight over who got the tip,( it was the equivalent of the wishbone). If you don't like the look of it whole, then you can cut it up into two or three sections before cooking. I use a pressure cooker. This way it not only cooks faster, you don't have to look at it while it's cooking. After cooking, let it cool completely, you can even refrigerate it to chill even more. Once it's cool, the skin will peel off like a banana skin. This too need not go to waste as my dogs love it. Once peeled, it looks like any other form of beef. Place it in a bowl and cover with the strained cooking liquid to keep it from drying out. You can slice it up immediately or as you need it. Makes excellent sandwiches or you can reheat it and serve as you would a pot roast.

I love vegetable stew!

I love minestrone soup with garlic breadsticks.. MM! I could eat that every.single.day!

I'm a simple kind of lady, so my favorite soup is homemade chicken noodle. I like to make it with escarole and egg noodles. It's just so delicious.

homemade soups, starting with meat bones and ending with seasonal vegetables....the best! takes hours to simmer on the stove...but the end results are used in so many meals...the simplest being laddled into a big bowl and with a crusty bread on the side.

Wild rice soup. A thick, creamy base with vegetables and chicken added. Top with parmesan cheese and homemade croutons.

My favorite meal worthy soup would be homemade bean soup with ham and bacon in it. I make it with a ham bone and let it simmer for about 3 hours. Very tasty and filling. I also like my mom's homemade vegetable soup with fresh veggies from the garden! Mmm good!

My Momma liked to make big ol pots of soups and stews. All us kids and our kids would come over and eat. Sometimes she'd be creative and add different things. My Daddy would smell it and come in and ask what she was cooking. She would tell him she was making "stuff". It was funny. She was a great cook.

Minestrone :)

My fav. meal worth soup is a big bowl of old fashioned home made chicken stew with veggies

I love to make a Korean soup made with fresh chicken cooked in water and spiced with plenty of grated fresh ginger. The chicken is shredded, and a cup or two of cooked rice is added to the broth and cooked until the soup has the consistency of "chowder." Serve in Oriental bowls and garnished with sliced green onions and Korean sesame salt. Delish, and very healing if you are suffering from respiratory "flu."

I'd have to say Split Pea and Lobster Bisque, my favorites! Thank you!

We make a mean minestrone!
