Vegetable Soup Recipe with Rutabaga

03/05/202005/26/2018 by Chef Buck

Try a tasty vegetable soup featuring rutabaga. Rutabaga is a healthy root vegetable you can use like a potato, but with less than half the calories and carbs of potato. Rutabaga is like a larger version of a turnip, only sweeter. It’s related to cabbage, and has a mild cabbagy taste, but not the “scary” cabbagy taste. Rutabaga is great in soups, and I love it simply seasoned and roasted in the oven. Like most produce, when buying rutabaga choose one that’s firm and seems heavy for it’s size, because that means it’s not too old, or dried out. Next time you’re at the market, pick up a rutabaga and give this vegetable soup a try and let me know what you think.

What you need for this Rutabaga Vegetable Soup Recipe

1 large RUTABAGA
1 ONION
2 stalks of CELERY
2 CARROTS
4-6 GARLIC
HOT PEPPER as desired
OIL for sauteing
CUMIN and FENNEL 1-2 tsp
(seeds optional)
1 Tbsp GARLIC POWDER
1-2 Tbsp CURRY POWDER
1 Tbsp SMOKED PAPRIKA
SALT and PEPPER to taste
(I use water in the soup if making ahead of time, or ready-made broth if eating soon)
Also, it’s soup; so add whatever else you want and clean the odds and ends out of your fridge.

How to make a Vegetable Soup with Rutabaga

Slice the ends off the rutabaga and cut away the outer skin with a knife.
Chop rutabaga into large cubes, approximately 1/2″ squares, but err on larger pieces.
In a large soup pot, heat oil on medium heat.
Add seeds and cook about 20 seconds.
Add garlic, hot pepper, and onion and saute for another 4-5 minutes.
Add in seasoning and mix well.
Add carrot, celery and rutabaga and mix well.
Fill pot with enough broth or water to cover veggies (use veggie or chicken broth instead of water if eating soup the same day, use water if sitting overnight), cover with a lid, and bring pot to a
boil.
Reduce heat and simmer on low for 40-50 minutes until rutabaga is fork tender.

That’s it!
Give this easy rutabaga soup recipe a try and let me know what you think, and bon appétit!

Liver Recipe for People Scared of Liver

01/20/202303/31/2018 by Chef Buck

If you ever wondered how to cook liver, then this liver recipe is an easy place to start. Growing up in the southern USA, I ate a lot of liver and onions. I know it looks like a scary prop from a Freddy Kruger movie, but it’s nutrient dense and delicious. If you didn’t grow up eating liver and onions, then the idea probably doesn’t sound very appealing, but it’s worth giving a try if you’re at all curious. Here’s a simple liver recipe with just a little oil, seasoning, hint of flour, and a whole lot of onions. Liver cooks up quickly. The onions take a little more time, but even so, it’s a quick and easy dish to prepare. And liver is a protein superfood, for reals.

What You Need for This Liver Recipe

BEEF LIVER (buy skinned and deveined liver, and thicker cuts are easier to handle)
ONIONS (lots of onions)
FLOUR (just a light dusting, use almond flour for a gluten free recipe)
SALT
PEPPER
(add other seasonings as well, if desired)
OIL for cooking

How Cook Liver and Onions

Wash and pat dry the liver.
Cut liver into palm sized pieces for easy handling in the skillet.
Bread liver lightly with seasoned flour.
Heat oil in a skillet on medium heat. Check current prices for a non-stick skillet on Amazon.
Add liver and cook about 2 minutes on each side, or until liver if firm, but still slightly pink inside.
Remove liver and place on a paper towel.
Add onions to the skillet and saute until carmelized.
Return liver to the skillet and heat through with the onions.
Plate liver and top with onions.

That’s it!
Give this liver recipe a try and let me know what you think, and bon appétit!

Tips for Buying and Cooking Liver

Buy paler liver for milder flavor. The darker the liver, the stronger the flavor.
“Calf liver” is milder, but more expensive than “beef liver”.
Buy “de-veined” liver; this will reduce some of the chewiness.
If you can’t find liver in your butcher’s meat case, check the frozen section. Beef liver is often sold frozen.
You can marinate beef liver in milk for a milder flavor.
Cook liver until it is firm, but still slightly pink inside. Overcooked liver can be chewy.

Benefits of Eating Liver

Liver is a nutrient powerhouse: a protein superfood.
It is packed with vitamins B12 and A.
Liver is high in iron, zinc, copper, and folic acid.
Liver is an excellent source of protein.
Eat liver to prevent or treat anemia.
Does liver sound gross? Remember, liver does not store toxins, but acts as a filter, and eating liver will benefit your own liver function.

Try a no potato hash browns recipe with rutabaga. Rutabaga is a root vegetable you can use just like a potato, but it’s a healthier choice with less than half the calories and carbs of potato. Rutabaga is like a larger version of a turnip, but a bit sweeter. It’s related to cabbage, and has a very mild cabbage taste.

What You Need for a Rutabaga Hash Browns Recipe

2 cups shredded RUTABAGA
2 chopped GREEN ONIONS (separate white bottoms from green tops)
some chopped HOT PEPPER

SMOKED PAPRIKA, GARLIC POWDER,
CHIPOTLE, BLACK PEPPER, etc. …use flavors you like
OIL for sauteing

How to make Hash Browns Recipe with Rutabaga

Slice the end off the rutabaga and cut away the outer skin with a knife.
Shred about 2 cups of rutabaga using a hand grater or food processor.
Place rutabaga in a colander and lightly sprinkle with salt. Mix and let sit for a few minutes while you prepare the other ingredients, this will give the salt time to draw out the water.
Squeeze excess water from the rutabaga and place in a bowl.
Add green onion bottoms, peppers, egg, and seasoning. Mix well.
Heat a skillet and oil on medium heat.
Add in the rutabaga mix and cook until browned, turning occasionally.
When near completion, stir in green onion bottoms and cheese.
