Making Soups and Stews 2


Charlotte: Mmm, something smells good. 


Mohamed: Hey, put down that lid! 


Charlotte: Sorry, I just wanted to see what you’re making. 


Mohamed: I’m making chicken soup. 


Charlotte: I’m really in the mood for a hearty 3 stew 1. There’s nothing more appetizing on a cold day than a good stew. 


Mohamed: Right, well, this is a simple chicken soup with a clear stock and vegetables. 


Charlotte: All you would have to do is thicken the soup and let it simmer a little longer. Then, presto 4! You have a stew. 


Mohamed: I get it. You’re partial to thick soups, but I feel like making a simple chicken soup. I don’t have time to cook a stew in a slow cooker, which is how I usually make it, not in a pot. 


Charlotte: All right, all right. Oh, a nice purée or bisque would be nice too. Doesn’t a chowder sound good right now? I could really go for a nice bowl of chowder. 


Mohamed: Fine, we’ll have chowder for dinner tomorrow. 


Charlotte: Really? 


Mohamed: Yes, and it’ll be the best chowder you’ve ever tasted – that comes out of a can.
