OLD-FASHIONED VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP



Old-Fashioned Vegetable Beef Soup image

Better than Campbell's but just as comforting! Loosely based on a gourmet cooking magazine's recipe for Beef Barley soup, I didn't have any barley or okra, so I added root veggies to make it more hearty, like a rich broth with the chunkyness of stew. It turned out to be the best soup I've ever made! DH, stepson and baby girl kept coming back for more.

VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP - BASIC RECIPE



Vegetable Beef Soup - Basic Recipe image

My mother never made soup from scratch so I never learned how. After trying a number of soup recipes from Zaar, I came up with this recipe as a guideline for a basic veggie beef soup. I often throw in whatever veggies I have around so the soup is never exactly the same two times running; however, soup-making isn't an exact science as is baking. I'm posting the recipe so that I can give it out easily; evidently, folks seem to really like it!

Provided by Impera_Magna

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h5m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb ground round
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped carrot
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 cups tomato juice or 3 cups v 8 vegetable juice
2 (10 1/2 ounce) cans condensed beef broth
2 1/2 cups water
1 (15 ounce) can cut green beans, drained
3 cups vegetables, of choice (yellow corn, shoe-peg corn, lima or butter beans, green peas, large potato, peeled and diced, whatev)
1 1/2 tablespoons parsley flakes
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Brown meat in large pot along w/ onions, celery, and carrots.
  • Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat, cover and simmer 30-45 mins til veggies and barley are done.
  • Note #1: I've been adding ½ cup pearl barley to the soup, which will be done in the amount of simmering time. Quick barley takes only 10 minutes to cook so you could add later.
  • Note #2: I've found that adding pasta, while good at first, it continues to absorb the soup liquid and get really big and the soup becomes more like a stew. If you'd like noodles, I would cook them separately and add them to the bowl just before ladling in the soup.
  • Note #3: You could also add rice, if you would like.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

14-ounce piece lean salt pork or 1 tablespoon vegetable or canola oil
3 marrow bones
1 1/2 pounds beef stew meat (rump or shoulder), cut into 2-inch pieces
1 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, drained and coarsely chopped
3 carrots, peeled and sliced
2 onions, chopped
2 celery ribs, coarsely chopped
2 small parsnips, peeled and sliced
2 cups fresh or frozen baby lima beans
1 cup fresh or frozen green beans
2 cups fresh or frozen okra, sliced thin
2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
1 cup fresh or frozen green peas
Generous pinch sugar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy 6-quart pot over medium heat. Add the salt pork and sauté until golden. Remove it and set aside. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of the drippings.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high (add vegetable oil, if using). In batches, brown the marrow bones and stew meat. Add 3 quarts of water and the salt pork. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 2 hours, skimming off any foam.
  • Add the tomatoes, carrots, onions, celery and parsnips; return to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Add the lima beans and green beans. Cover and simmer for another 30 minutes. Add the okra and simmer 20 minutes. Remove marrow bones and salt pork. Add the corn and peas and cook for about 10 more minutes, until cooked through. Skim off the fat from the surface and discard. Taste the broth and add sugar, salt and pepper as needed. The soup is ready but improves with age. If not serving immediately, refrigerate after it cools. Before reheating, skim off any congealed fat. If it is too thick, thin with a bit of water.
