I am always up for a hot, steamy bowl of soup especially when the soup is made with homemade noodles and lots of butter. Talk about a yum fest! What are some of your favorite soups? Let me know in the comments! Feel free to post your own recipes. There’s nothing more satisfying than coming home after a long day at work or school to a house filled with the fine aroma of hot and savory soup simmering on the stove.
This soup sounds absolutely amazing. Seriously, who wouldn’t want to try a soup whose main ingredient is butter?
Ingredients/Instructions
Butter Soup
8 cups of water
1 large onion
6 medium fresh potatoes. . with the skin left on
1 large McCormick bay leaf
5 whole cloves
8 peppercorns
1 star aniseed
a handful of fresh parsley
Bring water to boil, add the onion and the large diced potatoes. . .simmer 15 minutes.
Add all the spices but the parsley wrapped and tied in cheesecloth. Let simmer another while you make the noodles.
Add the chopped parsley to the soup separately from the cheesecloth.
Noodles
1 large farm fresh egg
2 tablespoons water
1 cup of Gold Medal flour
1/2 teaspoon Morton salt
Stir together the egg water, salt and stir in half the flour and then dump it onto the counter and knead in the rest of the flour. You may need a little more.
The way my mom did it and I continue to do it. . I cut it into strips, and with a clean scissor, I cut noodles, some small and others a bit bigger. No need to be perfect here. Doing it this way, you don’t add a lot of extra flour into the soup.
Stir the noodles into the soup, bring to boil and boil a few minutes until the noodles are done.
Ladle it into bowls, and put a dollop of butter onto the top, serve with a bit of fresh cream.
