Traditional Matzo Ball Soup - Apron Warrior - This should be a soup blog :)

Okay, I noticed for some reason I basically only post soup blogs. I didn’t even realize I ate that much soup until I glanced over my previous posts…then looked at the imaged I posted on Flickr. It might just be the current time in my life, because I don’t recall eating this much soup ever. Then again, I could be wrong. Here are a couple more soups that I’ve made recently, both being Matzo.

This is the traditional soup, made with vegetable broth, carrots, matzo etc.

The second soup I wanted to play around with a bit and add a bit of an Asian flavor. This flavor I was able to obtain simply by adding shitake mushrooms and a little bit of hot spice.

I actually really enjoyed the flavor of this a lot!

Other things in life:

I’ve been working on the concept of the children’s book I’m working on. Image should soon be finished and posted sometime during this week. Originally, I was debating between working in watercolour or digital paint. My conclusion was digital paint. I wasn’t sure the best way to scan watercolours in, not to mention the loss of colour that sometimes happens in the scan. Also, the ease of changing your image, fixing mistakes, etc, are a thousand times easier to do digitally. My problem is that it takes me a lot longer to do digital painting since I’ve just recently started and am slowly learning the techniques. Overall, it should be a great learning experience.
