My wikidictionary says potage = a thick creamy soup.

A long time ago, Ian visited us in Columbia, MD and Gail made some of
her version of split pea soup.  The end result was a thick soup that you
could almost stand a spoon upright.  Ian was quite surprised at that,
expecting a soup to be much thinner.


MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05

     Title: Tamari Almonds
Categories: Tested, Bryan's, Vac seal
     Yield: 2 7 oz bags

     3 tb Tamari soy sauce
 1 1/2 tb Vegetable oil
   1/4 ts Cayenne pepper
   3/4 ts Salt
     4 c  About 1 1/4 lb whole
          Unblanced almonds

 In large bowl, combine the tamari, oil, cayenne and salt.  Mix well.
 Stir in the almonds and stir to coat well.  Let sit 1 hour, stirring
 every 15 minutes.

 Preheat oven to 300 degrees.  With slotted spoon, remove the almonds
 from the bowl and spread on a foil lined baking sheet in a single
 layer. Discard any remaining marinade.

 Bake 30 minutes, removing baking sheet from oven every 5 minutes or
 so and tossing the almonds with a spatula.  Shake pan to help
 distribute almonds evenly.

 When done the almonds will be somewhat dry and crusty looking and
 have a dark coating, BUT they should not be burnt.

 Spoon almonds into another baking sheet or onto a few plates to let
 them cool completely.

 Store in airtight container (or vac. seal)

 Original directions baked almonds for 20 minutes, but I felt I had to
 extend that time since my almonds were still wet looking.  The
 additional time worked to make almonds crus ty looking.

 Tested 3/9/11.

 Nice crunch - slight soy taste with a tad of kick.
