Garbanzo Bean Soup

The First Can of Garbanzo Beans

• 1 Can Garbanzo Beans
• 1 Can Water
• Blended
• Boiled
• 2 Tablespoons Drippings
• 1 Tablespoon Schmaltz
• 1 Tablespoon Spices & Solids

A small bit of Salt bumped this up another notch. But for the most, The Grease stood on its own. And to think for years-and-years, I threw out these wayward drippings... you know, once I was through licking them up or dabbing at them with bread.

I'd call this Fancy Pea Soup and quietly move on to the next batch; in which, failed "Cheese Popcorn" is used for flavouring.


The Second Can of Garbanzo Beans

• 1 Can Garbanzo Beans
• Leftover Cheese Stuff
• ¼ Cup Dried Smoked Gouda Cheese
  • Butter
    • Maybe
  • Corn Extract Flavouring
    • Probably
• Water
• Lime Juice
• Blended
• Boiled
• Salt & Pepper
• Thick Pad of Butter

I do not believe this will be as good as the previous batch.

So, I added some Ginger to try and remedy that.

But at a preliminary analysis, only the Butter shines. Everything else is just doing time.

In the end, I can't say I care very much for this second batch. And for the most, I blame The Lime. Though, it's not like any other flavour is trying to burst forth from underneath the citrus. So, really, it's just a second rate dish.

Oh, well.

At least I can confirm that I can't taste much of a difference between Pea Soup and Mung Bean or Garbanzo Bean Soup.
