one story that watso recalls from some primary school (so almost 60 years ago) class reading material was about a magic pebble used to make soup..
one just starts off with the magic pebble in some water - then add carrots etc etc etc ..
watso makes plenty of soups . and they tend to be super thick .. but very rarely is the starting point just some water... a soup needs a good stock as a starting point - beef brisket bones or chicken .
watso just bought a couple of kilos of rtc ($2/kg) chicken drumsticks - and after cooking and eating the drumsticks - will use the bones to make a stock .. could always use some chicken frames at 99c/kg from the local store
