christine lavin - peanut butter soup lyrics
when you’re in a certain mood
for a certain kind of food
nothing else will satisfy
like if you’re hankerin’ for pie
(but i’m not hankerin’ for pie)
i like a certain soup a lot
i always make a giant pot
i hope you will be thankin’ me
i’m giving you the recipe
4 tablespoons peanut oil
3 cups sweet onions chopped
2 teaspoons grated ginger
6 celery stalks, sliced
2 cups of water or vegetable stock
5 cups sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoons cayenne
1 teaspoons salt
4 bay leaves – but it’s ok if you don’t have em
i once left em out by accident – n0body found fault
8 cups canned tomato puree
1 jar of peanut b+tter – smooth
(16 ounces)
the secret ingredient is 2 cakes of firm tofu
cut into cute little cubes
but first press some of the liquid out
you’ll dig this soup i have no doubt
sauté the onions and the ginger
in the oil for 8 minutes or so
add the celery sauté for 8 more
stir in the mushrooms cover
and cook for 20 minutes
mushrooms are a vegetable i adore
stir in the cayenne, salt, bay leaves
(if you got ‘em)
add puree and the stock or water
simmer covered for 30 minutes
then stir in the jar of smooth peanut b+tter
finally add the cubes of tofu
simmer 40 minutes on low heat
so it don’t burn
a bottle of white, a bottle of red
sourdough bread
oh the compliments
you’re about to earn
it’s a variation on the moosewood cook book
the moosewood restaurant in ithaca new york
been in business for more than 40 years
home of the happy spoon and happy fork
please don’t mention the tofu to children
or any paranoid right wing group
the best thing to call it to get them to try it
is peanut b+tter soup
peanut b+tter soup
peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter soup is non+dairy
packs a whole lot of protein
this soup is what you might call
high end post hippie cuisine
when you’re in a certain mood
peanut b+tter
for a certain kind of food
peanut b+tter
nothing else will satisfy
peanut b+tter
llke if you’re hankerin’ for pie
(but i’m not hankerin’ for pie)
i like a certain soup a lot
peanut b+tter
i always make a giant pot
peanut b+tter
now you’ve got the recipe
peanut b+tter
i hope you will make some for me
peanut b+tter soup
peanut b+tter soup
peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter peanut b+tter
peanut b+tter peanut b+tter soup
mmm, tasty
