I've just made my own carrot and honey soup and it is disgusting.
I scoured the worldwide interwebby thingy and downloaded instructions.

24 ounces coconut oil
2 ounces mango butter
36 ounces olive oil
12 ounces palm kernel oil
10 ounces palm fruit oil
12.10 ounces of lye
10 ounces freshly pressed carrot juice
1/2 tablespoon of raw honey
10 drops carrot seed essential oil
1 tablespoon mango butter
1 tablespoon rosehip seed oil
1/2 tablespoon tamanu oil
1/8 teaspoon rosemary antioxidants

Mixed it all together and boiled it up on the good old primus stove.
I didn't understand the bit about pouring it into a mould so I skipped that part and one or two other bits and just tipped it into a bowl and had it with crusty bread.

I am now foaming at the mouth.

I'm sure Campbell didn't have this problem.

Are you certain it is a soup recipe as looks more like something to turn into a body scrub product

Would keep your fleece looking lovely

Stick to grass Errol :-D

Try carrot and coriander.

3 lbs carrots.
1 lb potatoes.
Bunch of coriander chopped.
3 cloves garlic, crushed.
2 pints chicken stock.
Salt & Pepper to taste.

Boil until soft, allow to cool, liquidise.

DELICIOUS !


Its good to freeze.

! have a lovely recipe for carbolic soup that you could try.

Specsavers for sheep?

I won't get into a lather over it

I just don't understand it at all.

Double Yuck. I don't think I will be joining you for soup tonight.

:-D

Just looked at that. I think it looks really appetising but I don't think I could eat much of it. Did you eat it with spoon or a hammer and chisel?

I tried a spoon but it suddenly set with my spoon standing upright in the middle.

Still, my dish is sparkling clean now.

Only problem is.....

I'm forever blowing bubbles.

sends errol to specsavers

it says soap not soup :-D :-D

New invention-not soap on a rope...but..soap on a spoon!

Not sure if there's a market for it. :-S :-S

I do hope this is Errol's idea of a joke - the dollop of lye should frighten anyone off, it's caustic soda - did you see Allan's thread yesterday about the people given it in a salt cellar at a chicken take-away in Oz, Perth I think it was

MaureeninNY - how about soup on a rope?

Elizabeth with numbers lye is used in many foods.

Errol you should wash you mouth out with soap and water :-P

What a ridiculous idea. It would taste positively horrid.

Thought it was only rabbits that ate carrorts and bees that had honey...

Better to stick to either eating your green coat or grass....lol :-D :-D :-D :-D

I like to vary my diet every so often and get my teeth into something a little exciting

Errol that's the whole Idea *tuts* :-0

What? To get my teeth into something exciting?
