The end result: Home boiled Old Cucumber Soup

I like soups and homecooked food, so as Ian. Unfortunately, hubby only prefers soup that are clear and not cloudy or they would be labelled as dirty. *rolls eyes* I hardly do slow cooking soup on my stove to avoid having to watch fire or the pot soup runs dry.

I would usually dump in all the ingredients needed into my faithful crockpot of 15 years before I sleep and let it simmer until the next morning. That explains why my soup will always end up cloudy after the long hours simmering in the pot. My consolation is my boy still loves my soup a lot regardless of whether they turn out cloudy or otherwise.
