Comment préparer Stone Soup
Fill a large pot (at least 6 quarts) with 8 cups of water and bring to a rolling boil.
While the water heats, find a smooth, clean river stone (about 3-4 inches in diameter) and scrub it thoroughly. (Note: For a modern twist, you can skip the stone and proceed directly to step 3!)
Add the stone to the boiling water.
Add 1 large chopped onion, 1 cup of dried beans (soaked overnight), and 2 cups diced potatoes. Simmer for 30 minutes.
Add 1 cup chopped carrots, 1 cup chopped celery, and 1 cup chopped rutabagas. Simmer for another 30 minutes.
Stir in 1 cup chopped turnips, 1 cup chopped radishes, and 1 pound of beef (cubed). Continue to simmer for 45 minutes.
Add 1 cup chopped pheasant (optional), seasoning to taste (salt, pepper, herbs de Provence suggested), and a bottle of fine wine (1 cup or more, according to taste). Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If desired, add additional herbs, spices, or vegetables to enhance the flavor.
Serve hot with crusty bread, cheese, and fruit for a truly memorable meal!
(Optional: For a richer taste, simmer for the full 2 hours as in the original story!)
