SUMMARY:KindSoup for Students - Make Winter Vegetables Soup to Share With Others
DESCRIPTION:Join us online for KindSoup for Students as we make a Winter Vegetables Soup (based on this recipe by Heidi Swanson). 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 10 quarts that can qualify for any given day (5 SSL hours). Most recipes render at least 6 quarts of soup\, 3 SSL hours.  \nIn order to receive SSL Hours \n\nTake a picture during preparation\, of the finished product\, and at delivery\nreport on where you shared your KindSoup \nComplete this SSL Form  \n\nConnect to Zoom event \n\n\nWinter Vegetables Soup\n\n\n\n\n6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil\n3 tablespoons butter\n7 medium yellow onions\, peeled\n8 medium potatoes\n15 medium carrots\, peeled\n1/2 tablespoon salt\n12 cloves garlic\, peeled and sliced\n2 inches ginger (grated)\n6 quarts vegetable (or chicken) broth\n9 cups broccoli\, florets and stems\njuice of a lemon\n\nSoup Instructions\n\n\nChop the vegetables into 1-inch pieces before the Zoom session starts. This is the most time-consuming part of the recipe. \n\nHeat the olive oil and butter in a large soup pot over medium-high. Add the onions and salt\, stir to coat. Cover and cook for 5-10 minutes\, stirring occasionally until onions soften completely.\nAdd the garlic and ginger and cook for another minute or so. Add the potatoes and carrots along with the broth. Bring to a boil\, then reduce to a simmer.\nAfter 5 minutes of simmering\, add the broccoli and boil another 7-10 minutes or so. 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. Season the soup well to your liking with more salt\, if needed\, and the lemon juice (if you like it sour). Enjoy!\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\, November 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. (long hair should be tied back\, and everyone should start with freshly washed hands and gloves if you have them) You can start peeling and chopping your veggies while you wait for us to begin. \nEveryone’s first name should identify them on our zoom screen please. \nSee you soon!!\nHow to Donate Your KindSoup\nSeal containers with a tight lid and freeze.
