Well, I tried to be adventurous today. Grant got a Ratatouille cookbook for Christmas that has had some great recipes. (I'll have to post the Macaroni and Cheese one. Its almost as easy as Kraft, but tastes almost as good as Luby's.)
So I decided to make Vichyssoise - French Potato and Leek soup. I ended up making a double batch because I peeled more potatoes than necessary. Well, the last step is to puree the soup. I knew putting hot soup in a blender was not a good idea for me so we went ahead and ate. It was pretty good, but you could tell it would be better blended.
So after dinner was over I tried to blend it. Well, turns out you need the lid on all the way! Hot soup when everywhere! And mostly on me! I had to throw off my shirt rather quickly with everyone in the kitchen. Luckily it was just us. And thankfully it wasn't that hot. I have a few red patches that burn just a little, but it could have been so much worse if I had done it first. And it does taste so much better blended. I guess thats why they serve it cold....no one gets hurt that way!
