My stomach turned at "meat soup." What is that?
Oh, you don't want to hear about that. They lined us up in front of a hundred yards of prime rib. All of us, you know, lined up lookin' at it. Magnificent meat, really! Beautifully marbled. Magnific. Next thing, they're throwin' the meat into these big cauldrons. All of it! Boiling it! I looked inside, man, it was turning grey.
- smcl 4y agoSoup with beef in it is relatively common in the two places I've lived - UK and Czech Republic. Couple of very common examples of "beef soup" from each: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/oxtail-soup https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/oxtail-soup https://www.daringgourmet.com/traditional-scotch-broth/ https://www.daringgourmet.com/traditional-scotch-broth/ https://www.angusfarm.cz/recepty/hovezi-vyvar-698/ https://www.angusfarm.cz/recepty/hovezi-vyvar-698/ http://www.pradobroty.cz/2019/03/gulasova-polevka.html http://www.pradobroty.cz/2019/03/gulasova-polevka.html I think what the saucier in your quote[0] was upset about was cooking good quality meat very badly, not the idea that meat generally could be used in soup :) [0] - for those who don't know, it's this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbFvAaO9j8M https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbFvAaO9j8M
- crazygringo 4y agoIt's definitely an odd phrase. "Beef stew" is the normal way to say it. Is "beef soup" a common expression somewhere for the same thing, or is it something different? I don't know what your quote has to do with anything though. Beef stew is the perfect use for tough cuts, simmered for hours.
