Literally, in 'The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess' There is a 'Superb soup' that is made, and it refills all your health.
It sounded so yummy, I wanted to try and make it..so here is my take on it. But you don't have to be a nerd to even a fan to try this delicious, hearty stew!
I crave it every winter.. It's a fishy soup with salmon, potatoes, squash, pumpkin, leeks, and cheese. A winter wonder.
This recipe has undergone many tweaks, so if you find a measurement you'd prefer to do differently, or add something else, feel free. I hope this copy has the best reflections, lol, I tend to tweak and add dashes of this and that, so here goes. Spices aren't exact, and I usually go in dashes, so if something seems too much or too little, use your judgement.
I also recommend going for low sodium, organic chicken broth, and organic veggies whenever possible:
INGREDIENTS:
Butter for sauteing (2 T.) (REAL BUTTER. Don't eat plastic.
)1 T. Olive Oil (also sauteing. I suppose you could use either or..some butter has OL in it.)
1 C. Chopped onion
1 C. Chopped celery
3 or more Garlic minced(more if you love it)
16 oz. real canned pumpkin
1/2 acorn squash or about 1.5 cups (you can find it frozen and cubed at store)
2 yams/sweet potato (yams are sweeter)
3 carrots chopped/cut small
2 C. low sodium, chicken broth
salt and pepper(1 tsp. black or white pepper)
5 Tsp. nutmeg (and or Chinese five spice.)
1 Tsp. dill or small package fresh Dill
1 T. Parsley or 1 Package fresh parsley
1 (8 oz.) AND 1 (6. oz.) CANS Salmon (I use bones, skin and all.. just dump it right into the pot from the can. The bones are soft and full of flavor.
)1 (12 OZ.) Fat free evaporated milk (I bet coconut milk would also be good too or full cream if you'd like.)
2 (8 oz.) cans of creamed corn
(you can also add whole corn from can or frozen)
1 C. Shredded cheddar cheese/ Goat cheese
1 Leek Chopped
-=-DIRECTIONS-=- STIR IN SALMON, MILK, CREAMED CORN, AND CHEESE LAST.
(first time I made this I almost just dumped it all into the pot)Melt butter in large pot over medium high heat; Add OL oil and saute onion, leek, celery and garlic until onions are translucent(a few mins.)
Stir in chicken broth, all other veggies which have been chopped, canned pumpkin, all spices. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat.
Cover simmer 20 minutes.
STIR IN SALMON, MILK, CREAMED CORN, AND CHEESE LAST. Cook until heated through, and serve.
Some things to add to this to make it more fishy would be fish sauce (like for fried rice, and curry. You can get it in Asian section.)
You can add more pumpkin, or other squashes if you like.. of course more cheese if you love it like I do.
Let me know what you guys think if you make it.. It's uniquely tasty.
Lobster base sounds great too. I didn't think of that. And I'd love to get into using real pumpkin, it's probably a lot more healthy for you because it's more 'alive' then canned. Infact, this soup baked inside one of those little single sugar pumpkins would be delicious I bet. 
:facepalm:: 
Meditation is very hard for me too, unless it's guided, but then I usually fall asleep. LOL I set the oven on fire, gee what was it.. I believe it was new years but I'm not sure. something dripped to the bottom and there was a mini campfire in there. It was surreal seeing fire where it does not belong. LOL I have had nightmares since I was a little kid about the house being on fire, so much so I knew exactly what to grab if there ever was one.. So It left me really shaky. lol
