Finally\, report on where you shared your KindSoup and spread the word: Post a picture or two of you and your soups on social media with #DoKindWorks and tag us @DoKindWorks. \nConnect to Zoom event \n\n\nTuscan Bean and Kale Soup\n\n\n\nIngredients\n\nExtra-virgin olive oil\n3 medium yellow onions\, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)\n6 celery stalks\, diced (about 3 cups)\n9 medium carrots\, (peeled and) diced (3 cups)\n6 bay leaves\nSalt & Freshly ground black pepper\n6 garlic cloves\, thinly sliced\n6 cups crushed canned or fresh tomatoes in their juice\n9 cups cooked beans\, such as cannellini\, corona\,or cranberry\, cooking liquid reserved (from\nabout 3 cup raw; feel free to use canned beans instead!)\n3 ounces freshly grated Parmesan\, rind reserved\n9-12 cups Chicken Stock\, vegetable broth or water\, or more as needed for desired consistency\n6 bunches kale\, thinly sliced\n1 1/2 small head green or Savoy cabbage\, core removed and thinly sliced (about 3 cups sliced\n\nInstructions\n\n\nSet a large Dutch oven or stockpot over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil.\nWhen the oil shimmers\, add the onion\, celery\, carrots\, and bay leaves.\nSeason generously with salt and pepper.\nReduce the heat to medium and cook\, stirring occasionally\, until the vegetables are tender and just starting to brown\, about 15 minutes.\nDig a little hole in the center of the pot\, then add another tablespoon of olive oil.\nAdd the garlic and let it sizzle gently until it gives off an aroma\, about 30 seconds.\nBefore the garlic has a chance to brown\, add the tomatoes. Stir\, taste\, and add salt as needed. Let the tomatoes simmer until they cook down to a jammy consistency\, about 8 minutes.\nAdd the beans and their cooking liquid\, half the grated Parmesan and its rind and enough stock or water to cover.\nAdd two immoderate splashes of olive oil\, about 1/4 cup.\nStirring occasionally\, bring the soup back to a simmer. Add the kale and cabbage and bring to a simmer again\, adding more stock or water as needed to cover.\nCook until the flavors have come together and the greens are tender\, about 20 minutes more. Taste and adjust for salt.\n\nNotes by Samin Nosrat: I like this soup to be very thick\, but add more liquid if you like a\nlighter soup. Remove the Parmesan rind and bay leaves. Serve with a drizzle of the best olive\noil you have on hand\, and grated Parmesan. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5\ndays. This soup also freezes exceptionally well for up to 2 months. Return the soup to a boil\nbefore using. \nVariations: To make Pasta e Fagioli (Tuscan Pasta and Bean Soup)\, add 3/4 cup ditalini\,\ntubetti\, or other small pasta* shape along with the beans. *Uncooked to thicken soup\nfurther\, or cooked al dente and added later. Stir frequently\,as the starch released by the\npasta is apt to form a crust on the bottom of the pot and burn. Cook until the pasta is\ntender\, about 20 minutes. Thin out with more stock or water as needed to desired\nconsistency. Serve as directed above \n\n\nHealth and Safety Information\nIn order to protect the the quality of our KindSoup program\, we ask that volunteers conscientiously observe the following guidelines: \n\nStart with clean hands and wash again frequently as needed throughout the cooking process.\nStart with clean kitchen surfaces and utensils (antibacterial wipes do a great job).\nKeep longer hair tied back.\nFollow other common sense procedures\, such as never returning a tasting spoon to the pot!\n\nThank you for maintaining a high cleanliness standard for our KindSoup donations! \nHow to Donate Your KindSoup\nSeal containers with a tight lid and freeze.

You want everything to be tender (especially check if the potato and broccoli are tender). Remove from heat.\nBlend the mixture in a high-speed blender (in batches) or using an immersion blender. Be careful\, it’s hot. If the soup is thicker than you like\, add more hot water or broth at this point. The most important step is next.

DESCRIPTION:Join us online for KindSoup for Students as we make a Lasagna/Shell Soup (based on this recipe from Jamie Cooks it Up). After completing your soup\, and sharing some with your family\, freeze and label the rest for donation\, then drop off at one of our participating food assistance providers. \nStudents can earn 1 Student Service Learning Hour for every 2 quarts of frozen soup made with the group and delivered to others.  There is a maximum of 8 quarts that can qualify for any given day (4 hours). Most recipes render at least 6 quarts of soup\, 3 SSL hours.  \nIn order to receive SSL Hours \n\n take a picture during preparation and at delivery\nreport on where you shared your KindSoup \nComplete this SSL Form  \n\nConnect to Zoom event \n\n\nLasagna/Shell Soup\n\n\n\n\n4 cloves garlic\, minced\n1 pound sausage (optional)\n6 Cups hot water\n2 Tb beef bouillon granules\n4 (14.5 ounce) cans diced Italian tomatoes\n2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce\n1 tsp thyme\n3 Tb brown sugar\n1 Tb Italian seasoning\n3/4 tsp salt\n1/4 tsp pepper\n3/4 tsp garlic salt\n1 tsp fennel\n1 1/2 Cups parmesan cheese\, grated\n2 (16 ounce) packages medium shell pasta OR lasagna\n2 Cups mozzarella cheese\, grated\n\nSoup Instructions\n\n\n\nInto a large soup pot place the garlic and sausage. Use a spatula to break up the sausage and cook on medium high heat until the sausage is no longer pink. Drain the fat.\nAdd all other ingredients\, except for the parmesan cheese\, mozzarella cheese and pasta shells. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and let it cook for 30 minutes\, stirring occasionally.\nCook the pasta in a separate pot\, according to package instructions. When your pasta has cooked pour it into a strainer in your sink and run cold water over it.\nWhen the soup has simmered for the 30 minutes\, add 1 1/2 C parmesan cheese and give it a nice stir. Remove the pan from the heat. The soup should be hot enough to melt the cheese quickly.\nAt this point (if I’m taking the soup to a party of some kind) I transfer it to a large 7 quart crock pot (without the pasta) and turn the setting to warm.\nJust before serving add the pasta. If you add it too soon it will get a bit soggy and soak up a lot of the broth.\nScoop the soup into individual serving bowls and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.\n\n\n\n\nHealth and Safety Information\nIn order to protect the the quality of our KindSoup program\, we ask that volunteers conscientiously observe the following guidelines: \n\nStart with clean hands and wash again frequently as needed throughout the cooking process.\nStart with clean kitchen surfaces and utensils (antibacterial wipes do a great job).\nKeep longer hair tied back.\nFollow other common sense procedures\, such as never returning a tasting spoon to the pot!\n\nThank you for maintaining a high cleanliness standard for our KindSoup donations! \nSTUDENTS:  \nPrior to our Sunday\, March 1st cooking session:  \n\nConfirm your participation by signing up at the bottom of this page\nGather your ingredients\nMake sure that you have either a Soup Pot large enough to hold all of this soup\, or two smaller ones that will together hold it all\nHave 6 quart sized plastic soup containers with tight fitting lids (ask your neighbors if you could have theirs rather than them recycling them – they will be thrilled)\n\nHave all of your ingredients and cooking tools out and ready for when you sign on to our zoom at 5pm.

SUMMARY:Make Broccoli\, Barley and Cannellini Bean Soup to Share With Others
DESCRIPTION:Join KindChef Carol to make a Broccoli\, Barley and Cannellini Bean Soup (based on this recipe from New York Times.) After completing your soup\, freeze and label it for donation\, then drop off at one of our participating food assistance providers\, with a person or family that is in your heart\, or anyplace that you prefer\, when convenient. Finally\, report on where you shared your KindSoup and spread the word: Post a picture or two of you and your soups on social media with #DoKindWorks and tag us @DoKindWorks. \nConnect to Zoom event \n\n\nBroccoli\, Barley and Cannellini Bean Soup\n\n\n\nIngredients\n\n1 cup pearl barley\nSalt\n3 heads of broccoli (about 3 pounds)\n½ cup extra-virgin olive oil\, plus more for serving\n4 ½ tablespoons chopped garlic\n3 cups cooked cannellini or other white beans (from 3 15-ounce cans)\, rinsed and drained\n3 beef bouillon (vegetable stock or bouillon) cubes or 3 teaspoons beef stock concentrate \nFreshly ground black pepper\n\nInstructions\n\n\nPut the barley in a large saucepan with enough water to cover by 3 inches and ½ teaspoon of salt. Bring to a slow\, steady simmer\, then cover\, and cook until the barley is fully tender\, 30 to 45 minutes. Drain\, saving the water in a large bowl for the soup.\nWhile the barley is cooking\, detach the florets and any small leaves from the broccoli. Peel the main stems and the florets’ stems. Rinse the broccoli well.\nFill a large soup pot with water and bring to a boil. Add 5 tablespoons salt and the thick\, main broccoli stems. (The salt is to keep the broccoli green and it will not make it too salty.) Cook for 7 or 8 minutes\, then add the florets. When the water returns to a boil\, cook for another 10 minutes or so\, then drain. Chop the broccoli rather fine and set aside.\nPut the olive oil and garlic in the soup pot\, turn on the heat to medium\, and cook\, stirring frequently\, just until the garlic turns a deep ivory\, about 1 ½ minutes.\nAdd the broccoli and cook for 2 or 3 minutes\, turning it over from time to time to coat it well. Add the cannellini beans and cooked barley and stir once or twice.\nAdd enough of the barley cooking water to cover by at least 2 inches\, using fresh water if you need more. Put in the bouillon cube and several grindings of pepper\, and stir for 15 or 20 seconds. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes. Taste and correct for seasoning. Serve with a trickle of olive oil in each bowl.\n\n\n\nHealth and Safety Information\nIn order to protect the the quality of our KindSoup program\, we ask that volunteers conscientiously observe the following guidelines: \n\nStart with clean hands and wash again frequently as needed throughout the cooking process.\nStart with clean kitchen surfaces and utensils (antibacterial wipes do a great job).\nKeep longer hair tied back.\nFollow other common sense procedures\, such as never returning a tasting spoon to the pot!\n\nThank you for maintaining a high cleanliness standard for our KindSoup donations! \nHow to Donate Your KindSoup\nSeal containers with a tight lid and freeze.
