Turkey Soup

[Reel 224]

Ruth and I are making Turkey soup today with the carcass and basically we cooked onions,carrots,parsnips and added parsley,dill,bay leaf, pepper and thyme in chicken broth. I added white wine and reduced it,and added some rue to thicken the broth and brought it to a boil and it's simmering right now.  

Does anyone have a favorite recipe for Turkey Soup?

Yes..... Yours. Lol.  I took a turkey to the outlaws and brought back the boneses for TNS.  No kidding I like sandwiches the day after and soup better than the whole turkey / dressing deal.

Search for a pa-ke recipe for turkey jook.
Pake is chinese in Hawaii. Jook is a rice soup using different types of poultry or using beef. Top with green onions.
Lots of family recipes for this.

I had a large saimin bowl of chicken jook just last week at Duk Kee restaurant on 12th Ave in Kaimuki.  My grandson had a small saimin and we shared a plate of Lup Cheong Chicken with vegetables.

Making myself hungry.

I have ussed Emerils Turkey Bone Gumbo several times.  Basicly you boil the carcass with some veggies, remove the meat from the bones stir in a rue to thicken and serve over rice and top with some file powder.  I look forward to it throuhout the year.

Mine is about the same.

Simmer carcass for several hours, shred meat, discard bones.
Add veggies and what ever else floats your boat.
Spice to your liking and chow down.

The next time you all make turkey soup put the carcass and all the leg bones along with a carrot, onion and celery in a roasting pan toss with olive oil, salt pepper and place in the oven at 425 degrees.  Keep a close watch on everything so it does not burn.  When it all gets nice and brown use it as you otherwise would.  It makes a richer soup.  Dominick

My lemon chicken soup recipe.  Works great for colds and you could substitute turkey for the chicken:

Ingredients:  1 cooked, skinned and deboned chicken
         4 fresh lemons
         Lemon pepper - to taste
         Cumin to taste  - (dash)
         1 large chopped onion
         3 sliced carrots
         3 stalks of celery chopped
         1 cup of rough chopped mushrooms   
         2 tablespoons olive oil
         2 - forty nine oz. cans of chicken stock
         1/2 cup uncooked rice

Sauté vegetables in olive oil until tender.  Add chicken stock, juice and zest of 4 lemons, rough chopped chicken and seasonings.  Cook covered for 20 minutes.  Add rice and cook covered for another 20 minutes.  Red pepper flakes may be added for an extra kick.   Serve with crusty bread or hard rolls.

Here is one jook recipe. No need too many ingredients. Last time, other than rice, water, rock salt, ginger, and turkey bones, I used raw peanuts, green onions, and shoyu.

With all of these great recipes here, please do one thing

Rapidly cool all soups in a metal lasagna pan from 135F to 70F in 2 hours or less and from 70F to 41F in another 4 hours or less. This prevents Clostridium perfringens toxin formation as well salmonella and other pathogens.

I second the roasting the bones and the veggies. Another thing is to brown the turkey fat in the bottom of the pot and then add the bones, veggies and water.

When you are done with the stock skim the fat and save it,then toss the bones, etc.

The fat is good to roast potatoes and sauté veggies.

Take the stock, add the veggies that you want in the soup and then add chucks of raw turkey breast once the veggies are soft and fully cook the turkey breast to a minimum internal temperature of 165F or higher. Serve over spaghetti squash and put a tablespoon of course ground mustard in each bowl for a kick.
