Here’s an easy recipe for a nourishing and comforting soup.
Look no further!
Now is a good time to use those of veggies sitting in the back of your veggie crisper tray. Turnips, peppers, tomatoes, green onion etc add a lot of flavour to the base of your chicken broth.
Cook vegetables along with onions, garlic, sea salt, black peppercorns & bones for 4-6 hours at a simmer.
Strain the broth. Remove meat from bones, discard bones and any vegetables you won’t add to finished soup.
Sauté 2 chopped carrots until you see a bit of the carrot 🥕 colour seeps into the olive or avocado oil.
Add a chopped parsnip,celery, 🥔 2 chopped potatoes, 1/4 cup rice or barley and any veggies you’d like to enjoy in your soup.
Add strained broth + meat to veggies pot.
Cool until veggies are tender. About 20 minutes.
Finish with chopped parsley, and adjust the seasoning with garlic sea salt, thyme, and a black pepper as desired.
TIP: Are you thinking of adding pasta to your soup? Add cooked noodles to your bowl if desired, not the pot of soup! This prevents soggy noodles.
Want a helping hand? Send me a DM and we’ll cook together. It’ll be fun!

Reduce // Reuse // Recycle
I’m always looking at ways to limit the amount of garbage I put out into the world. All Muskoka Pantry Gourmet Sea Salt and Spice Collections, teas and tea blends, and accessories are shipped using recycled materials whenever possible.
All my packaging is also reusable and depending on your local regulations, recyclable!! I hope when you receive one a spice set or tea from one of my collections, that you find a way to reuse the packaging or even re-gift it!
So, what I hope is that you don`t mind that you will probably get something from me that might not be brand new wrapping. Just a happy fyi. 🙂

Not just for your tea drinking pleasure! Are you hooked on Matcha yet? I was hooked on Matcha at first sip. I totally had Matcha fever. I feel in love with the beautiful deep green colour, how smooth it went down and it’s vegetal flavor. What could be better?
Then, my amazing find. Matcha infused sea salt. I don’t recommend adding it to your cooked foods.
If you’re ready to add a gourmet flair, sprinkle Matcha Sea Sea on top of steamed or baked fish, and vegetable dishes and of course Tempura. I love adding chopped parsley and Matcha to rice dishes to give it a bright green finish. Some of my Besties tell me they can’t eat eggs without it!

Hello over there! I’m interrupting your holiday programming to wish you a Happy New Year … and to share a photo of a gift that my In-Laws made for me this year. 🙂
I hope that you were able to enjoy some special moments with your special people over the holidays, and if you couldn’t be together maybe you were able to Skype, Facetime or text.
For 2020 I wish that everyone can get what they need. Good health and happiness most of all.
Okay, so I had to share this photo of my pressie because I thought it was so weird … Leading up to the holidays I seemed to have had a little saying that kept coming out of my mouth.. It was “It’s not what’s under your Christmas tree that matters, it’s who is around your tree.” Though having said that it can be who’s around your table, your campfire, or who’s around in your life. So, when I opened this gift I was blown away. What do you think? Coincidence or I just didn’t know that I was a HUGE Charlie Brown fan?!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Hope you are surrounded by love, light and happiness!!

What’s your favorite winter memory? Not necessarily a Holiday memory.
One of my favorite winter memories is my whole family driving up to our farm in the winter. Our parents didn’t usually take us in the winter. 🥶 It was so beautiful and cold. The farm had the typical super long driveway and it was a deep cold Canadian winter and much to our chagrin, the driveway hadn’t been plowed before we arrived and my Dad had to park “the suburban” at the end of the drive and walk in to the house. We grabbed all that we could carry and walked and walked and walked. I think I made snow angels along the way and though it was cold, everyone was happy and laughing. When we finally got through the door it was all smiles and glasses clinking.
After that I just remember sharing my room w my cousin and thinking how cool is this?! How about you? What’s your favorite winter time memory?
