Lentil Soup

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   
1 (16 ounce) package Dried Lentils
3 quarts Chicken Stock
1 Bay Leaf
1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1/4 teaspoon grated Nutmeg
5 drops Tabasco Sauce
1/4 teaspoon Caraway Seeds
1/2 teaspoon Celery Salt
1/2 teaspoon Fresh Ground Black Pepper
1 cup chopped Carrots
1 cup chopped Onions
1 cup chopped Celery
1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Parsley
1/2 pound diced Ham
Croutons
 
   
Preparation:  
   

Rinse and drain lentils; place in a soup pot. Add stock, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, nutmeg, chili sauce, caraway seeds, and celery salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer for 30 minutes. Add water as needed, up to 2 quarts, to retain soupy texture.

Stir in carrots, celery, and onion. Cook 15 minutes more. Serve hot, garnished with croutons.
