  1. I HAVE Tested this Out. Yes! As long AS the Pot IS Heated Once per Day? That keeps it from growing Mold.
    It also IS Better, IF you have a Lid On the pot, to hold the steam in.
    Many Mothers would Do this during Wartime, etc. Ingredients were not plentiful.
    Perpetual Soup Pots…

  2. Think about how hard ingredients were to find also. If you are gathering herbs and tubers and such in the forest, you might go weeks without finding anything in the winter. Keeping that pot going would keep the flavors going.

  3. This applies to any beans really. My pantry is chockers with Bob's Red Mill. And I've kept many soups running for over a week. Not often since eating the same base for a week gets old when you have other options handy.

  4. As a French Canadian, my bloodline’s survival endorses this message.
    I’m literally about to defrost the Easter ham leftovers and make a big pot of the Soupe aux Pois that my great great great grandparents deliciously survived on.
    Some cracked black pepper, some bay leaves, mirepoix, a little bit of brown sugar, diced smoked ham, split yellow peas,
    And stock made from the bone.
    You eat that wi the some crusty bread and your body and soul say,
    I can make it!
    Survive that winter with joie de vive!

  5. Nahhhh. Its a children song saying people cany eat food in whatever way they want.

    9 days old pease porridge is supposed to sound gross

  6. I like how big he is, and his tounge almost come out of his mouth when he talks, and those glasses!
