Notes
Proteins
No matter the protein being added, weigh out 1 lb.Choice of herbs can be added in depending on the protein being added. For Chicken, Savory or Sage are excellent. With Pork, you may want to use Thyme and for Beef, maybe some Rosemary. Keep it light, only adding in about 1/2 tsp. Optionally use Parsley no matter the type of protein added. Beef Snow Soup: Add small diced Beef. Ground Beef can also be cooked, and then the soup base added. Pork Snow Soup: Add small diced Pork. Ground Pork can also be cooked, and then the soup base added. Ground Chicken Snow Soup: Just like ground Beef or Pork, cook before adding in the soup base. Sausage Snow Soup: Precooked Sausages like Chourico can be chopped and added, or uncooked sausages like Italian Sausage cooked first and then chopped, or the casing removed and cooked like ground Beef, Pork or Chicken before adding the soup base. Meatball Snow Soup: Small Meatballs anywhere from 1/2 tsp portions to 1 Tbl portions can be cooked before the soup base is added.
