    It's made by heating milk with sugar and vanilla and thickening slightly with beaten egg yolks. This is poured over a soup plate of cooked rice and garnished with poached meringue balls. Strawberry-Rhubarb "Nothing" Soup: Zupa Nic Recipe courtesy Wayne Harley Brachman Serves: 6 servings Ingredients * 1 pound cleaned rhubarb * 3/4 cup sugar * 2 pints strawberries, hulled and pureed * 2 cups orange juice Directions Cut rhubarb into 1/2-inch pieces and macerate in 1/2 cup sugar for 1 hour. Meanwhile, puree strawberries with remaining 1/4 cup sugar. In a saucepan, cook rhubarb and orange juice, covered, until mushy. Remove from heat and stir in strawberry puree. Make "Buttermilk Nothing"(Lemon syrup): * 1/4 cup lemon juice * 1/4 cup sugar Bring ingredients to a boil. Set aside to cool. "Anglaise": * 1/2 cup milk * 1/2 cup cream * 1/2 vanilla bean, scraped * 3 egg yolks * 1/4 cup sugar * 1/2 cup buttermilk In a saucepan, bring the milk cream and vanilla bean to a scald. In the meantime, in a bowl, whisk together the yolks and sugar. While whisking the yolks, drizzle in the hot milk. Return to the pan and cook, stirring until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Strain and chill in an ice bath. Add the lemon syrup to the buttermilk. Mix into creme anglaise. Drizzle the anglaise mixture on top of the strawberry rhubarb nothing. (Soup may be served hot or cold.) Printed from FoodNetwork.com on Sat Feb 14 2009

John, you are so great with doing the research and you even added recipes for soups - like the rhubarb one, I did not hear about! The idea of "soup nothing" is that this soup is not based on bullion, bones or meat. Here is a picture of one of the simples "soup nothing" these dumplings are made of stiff white eggs. The soup ingredients are just like your Anglaise soup - milk, eggs, vanilla and sugar o-pysznym-jedzeniu.bloog.pl/id,4127943,title,Zupa-Nic,index.html?ticaid=67812 see it here:  |
