For the soup

- 1 1⁄2 cups sugar snap peas
- 1 1⁄2 cups diced baby turnips
- 10 ramps

directions
- If using ramps cut stems into 1/2-inch segments and shred leaves.
-
broth:
- Heat the sesame oil [do not use dark] in a pot then add all remaining ingredients.
- Cook, covered, over medium heat for 5 minutes.
- Add the water and cook uncovered for 1 to 1 1/2 hours or until the stock has developed good flavor.
- Strain the vegetables out, and season broth to taste with salt.
- The broth can be made up to a few days in advance or used for other recipes calling for vegetable broth or in place of chicken, beef or fish broth in other recipes.
-
The vegetables:
- Bring water and salt to a boil in a large pot. Add the diced carrots and cook for 2 minutes, or until tender. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in an ice-water bath to stop the cooking process. As soon as the carrots are cool, take them out of the water and set them aside.
- Repeat this process with the sugar snap peas, baby turnips, ramps and fava beans.
- Once the fava beans are cooled, peel off their skins. Do NOT precook the sorrel.
-
Assemble:
- Stir the vegetables, quinoa and sorrel into the hot broth and heat for 1 minute.
- Taste and adjust seasonings.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with the sesame seeds and serve. Serves 4-6.

I WILL NOT say they are Vegetarian or Vegan any longer due to the database changes. I DO NOT WISH YOU TO RECOMMEND THEM. Consider them as faulty. It's your own fault if you trust them. Don't bother to review.
Don't ask me a question. I won't answer. I'm not here anymore.
I will NOT warrent any recipe on this site put up by me as correct due to Scripps problems. IF they claim to have fixed it, I still do not warrent any recipe as correct except the ones that I put up personally on the tripod site so use any recipe posted under my name at your own risk. Basic? Lots of luck.
Now the ones at chef.philocrates.tripod.com [see De Gustibus Veg*n in link on top], yeah, I will take responsiblity for all of them and the ingredients. I put them up and any errors are all mine.
No the door didn't hit me on the ### but the skid marks in the parking lot are mine.
