When one puts a shot of soup ...Its a shot of soup, <br />When one puts a shot of soup in a shot glass what else could it be called.<br />Custard would suffice, except for the fact you are referring to the practice caramelising the top, rather than the main ingredient. <br />Creme would be the custard, and Brûlée translates to burnt!<br />And another thing, the soup may sound drab but has an undeniable brightness, and blah blah blah! <br />Wow this is more fun than photos!mint dining roomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04932143716348825107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355529540012283134.post-2103298377430524122011-10-10T16:44:13.753-07:002011-10-10T16:44:13.753-07:00I'm not debating the validity of the word soup...I'm not debating the validity of the word soup, and in your dictionary you'll find many words for all manor of things, some with similar definitions. What I am saying and I don't mean to hurt feelings here, is "strawberry soup" sounds drab {/drab/ adj: Lacking brightness or interest}, and it needs a description that removes the notion that it's an unset jam drink. Rhetorical question: Why use the term Brûlée when custard would suffice so far a dictionary was concerned. Marketing language - calling a spade a delightfully bucolic colonial winner facing north and offering a unique opportunity to the handyman.Scotty Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377061636519756772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355529540012283134.post-39337948930940682972011-10-10T15:59:05.827-07:002011-10-10T15:59:05.827-07:00You're right, pureed fruit, finished as a plea...You're right, pureed fruit, finished as a pleasant tasting liquid........... um thats not soup????<br /><br />Dictionary.<br />Soup<br /><br />A liquid food prepared from meat, fish,fruit or vegetable stock combined with various other ingredients and often containing solid pieces.<br /><br />I need help?!
