Hey orf, that sounds interesting. I'll give it a shot tomorrow. The lettuce doesn't sound odd at all in soup. Thanks for sharing.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it probably needs more time on the grill!
One of the basic skills in cooking is the making of sauce. When you can master that then it opens an enormous chapter in cooking. Gravy is in reality just a sauce. Blend a tablespoon of flour with a tablespoon of fat, cook it until it is bubbly and whisk in a cup of liquid. and cook until it thickens. This will make a thin sauce. If you use stock then you get a pale gravy, if you use milk you get a thin white sauce. if you use two tablespoons of flour and fat and a cup of liquid you get a thicker sauce. If you stir cheese into a white sauce you get a cheese sauce. If you use milk and eggs and sugar you get a custard sauce and if you boil that you ruin it.
