Soup

Okay, this one I'm gonna try to jot down. For one bowl of soup (yes,
one serving):

1/4 cup chopped onions
2 TBS olive oil
1 tsp chicken rub seasoning (or thereabouts)
1 TBS lemon grass
2 pressed cloves of garlic (or finely chopped if you don't have a
presseratormajiggy)
1 cup chicken or beef broth
1 tsp lemon juice
half a steak-umm if desired, broken into bite-sized bits
1 tsp soy sauce
1/3 cup chopped scallions
1/3 cup cilantro
1/4 cup dulse

Get a little pot and dump in the onions, olive oil and chicken rub.
Cook at half-way heat, stirring occasionally, until onions are
translucent (this might be what the real cooks call "carmelized" but
I gave up figuring that one out a ways back).

Once translucent onions exist, dump in the lemon grass and garlic.
Usually I press the garlic right into the pot, stir, then go rinse
off the press while it sautees or whatever it does.

Pour in enough broth to barely cover existing mess. Let it come to a
boil. Add a little more broth and let it come to a boil. Add the
rest of the broth and the lemon juice, and let it come to a boil.
This sounds longer than it really is. It actually takes a minute or
two. Once boiling, splash in the soy sauce and put in the steak-
umms. Let it go until steakumms are brown, then you can shut off the
heat and let it sit while you do other stuff.

Arrange cilantro, scallions, and dulse on big ol' plate and put a
little glass bowl in center of it all. Dump in the soup. Have some
birch beer with it if you wish, take a picture, and write a blog.
Don't forget to put the garnishings on the plate into the soup as you
so desire!! :)
