Chicken soup without a roasted chicken

chicken soup

Making stock and soup usually takes a lot of prep and time. But if you're itching to get a fully made and finished soup pronto, Pim is once again coming to the rescue with an easy and quicker way to get results. First, tomato sauce. Now, chicken soup!

The recipe isn't nearly as speedy as the sauce, but it definitely cuts down on the time usually allotted to stock and soup making. Her twist is to combine the two into one recipe. She starts the soup, cooks the chicken in it, takes it out when done, and then re-adds the bones to simmer for a half hour.

Having soup ready for the table in just a few hours sounds downright perfect to me. Maybe it will get me out of my habit to stock pile turkey soup each Thanksgiving.

Chez Pim does Pad Thai for beginners

Pim, of Chez Pim, is not exaggerating when she says that Pad Thai is one of the most popular and well-know Thai dishes out there. But despite its popularity, the noodle dish is often simply eaten in restaurants, picked up from takeout places or even cooked from a mix instead of being cooked from scratch at home. Pim has generously provided her readers with a complete and detailed how-to guide for making Pad Thai at home. She guarantees that it is just about foolproof if you follow her specific directions, and since she has a photo to go along with every step in the recipe, doing so should not be difficult in the least.

Pim also mentions several common Pad Thai mistakes that you should avoid, just to ensure you get perfect results, and reassures readers that the sauce can be made in advance, which provides a shortcut for later preparations of the dish.

Chop Talk with Pim in the NY Times

Last fall, the UK Observer christened her Queen of the Bloggers in their monthly food section, and today, food blogger Pim Techamuanvivit, who blogs at Chez Pim, was featured in the Style section of the New York Times. There is a short and sweet blurb about her blog and love of Thai cooking, followed by four of her recipes: Khao Soi, Shrimp Tiles With Cucumber Ajaad, Lychee and Orange Loy Gaew, Kanom Jeen Nam-Prik.

Recipes? Food blogging? You might ask yourself why this is in the Style section. The answer is that Pim loves fashion nearly as much as she loves food and is prominently featured in a slide show in which she (and people who are presumably her friends) are noshing Thai food in designer clothes.
