[17:01] <naze_youka> i'm attempting to cook soup
[17:01] <@Morgrim> How's it going?
[17:01] <naze_youka> using some leftover broth, mixed with water and a ramen seasoning packet, mixed in peas
[17:01] <naze_youka> i'm letting it simmer, while i'm cooking bacon
[17:02] <naze_youka> going to add in bacon and some noodles once thats done
[17:02] <naze_youka> also crushed red pepper on spices, but i'll do that to taste
[17:02] <naze_youka> i've never made soup before, so this is all experiemental
[17:03] <naze_youka> i decided if it doesnt work out, i'll go out to eat instead
[17:03] <naze_youka> but i figure its hard to go wrong when i start from what is essentially a premade base
[17:03] <+Jim> soup is a good thing
[17:03] <naze_youka> ramen seasoning packets are like a soup in a pouch anyways, so i figured with the broth and add ins, it should work out
[17:04] <naze_youka> if the broth tastes good, i'm going to try making egg drop
[17:05] <naze_youka> i have no idea what i'm doing, but on the up side, it does smell like soup at least
[17:06] <naze_youka> i assume i'm on the right track
[17:07] <Shoe> bacon's not really good to put in soup cooked
[17:07] <Shoe> if you're going to add bacon, put it in raw.
[17:07] <Shoe> the flavor will get into the soup by cooking, not by being already cooked.
[17:07] <naze_youka> what about adding in the bacon grease
[17:08] <naze_youka> that has a lot of flavor
[17:08] <Shoe> bad idea
[17:08] <Shoe> that'll just make your broth all greasy.
[17:08] <naze_youka> but if i was going to cook the bacon in the broth anyways, wouldnt it be the same thing?
[17:08] <Shoe> hold on
[17:08] <Shoe> i gotta go do chores.
[17:08] <naze_youka> ok
