I realized in doing so that I hadn't made this Zucchini Garden Chowder in years. I had everything on hand that I needed, and best of all it would neatly use up those two zucchini. What a good choice! This is such a delicious, comforting soup.
In my 2010 post I noted that my dad, instead of simply telling me supper was good, as he so often did, surprised me by exclaiming that this soup was delicious. In tasting it again, I think I know why. The flavor bears a good bit of resemblance to a "Welsh Rabbit" that my mother used to make occasionally -- a combination of cheddar cheese and tomatoes that she served over toast. Not a classic Welsh rarebit by any means, but it was a warm and tasty quick meal on occasion.
When we had the soup this week, my hubby also proclaimed that this was a very good soup. I hope you'll enjoy this too, if you try it.
It is so helpful when your own blog becomes such a rich resource complete with those wonderful memories. I could enjoy this soup immensely as long as I blenderized it. My texture issues prevent me from even trying many things, but I have discovered that I enjoy all soups with that method. Alas no zucchini languishing in the fridge.
ReplyDeleteYes, isn't that so helpful? I've found it such a blessing, especially when away from home, to be able to access recipes through my blog. And yes, the memories too.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize about your texture issues. I'm thankful you can still enjoy soups!
