Made another pot of garbanzo bean soup ("Spanish Bean soup") this evening, and noticed something I missed last time: the recipe calls for 1/2 teaspoon of Tobasco sauce.See, I misread the instructions last time, and added a half cup of Tobasco by mistake. Not a half teaspoon.
I thought my first attempt at making soup just tasted a little ... "extry spicey."
But the new result is delicious and I'm 99% pleased with the results. All it's lacking is a couple of slices of Tampa-style Cuban bread, a pat of butter ... and a flan de leche for dessert.
