We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Gratitude is an offering precious in the sight of God, and it is one that the poorest of us can make and be not poorer but richer for having made it.

INGREDIENTS

4 c Finely diced fennel; (1 large bulb, about 1 1/2 lb) ((we got one pretty large bulb, didn't weigh it, came to 2 cups))
1 lg Bunch leeks; (3 large leeks), enough to make 4 cups finely diced ((yup))
1 c Uncooked orzo; ((pasta that looks like rice))
8 c Water

INSTRUCTIONS

I just tried this from a cookbook I got for Christmas: a totally FF recipe
in the middle of a SAD cookbook (Recipes 1-2-3, Rozanne Gold). Here, with
my comments in (()):
Cut off the fennel fronds from the fennel bulb and reserve for ganrish.
Remove any brown spots from the fennel bulb, dice. Clean the leeks
thoroughly and dice finely--you should have 4 cups. Put 8 cups of water in
a large, heavy pot and bring to a boil. Add the fennel, leeks, and orzo and
1 1/2 tsp salt. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer
50    minutes.
With a large ladle, remove 4 cups of soup from the pot and puree until
smooth in a food processor. Return the soup to the pot and continue to
cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Add salt and freshly
ground black pepper to tast. Chop the fennel fronds aund use them for
garnish ((we skipped all this, but did find some salt and a couple drops of
hot pepper stuff were good in it. They also suggested Parmesan cheese; you
could add FF Parmesan but I don't think it needs it)). Makes 10 servings.
Well, obviously you could cut the recipe in half. It gets thicker the next
day.
