My Dinner With The Soup Nazi

Since I know Larry Thomas from designing his own website (www.soupnazi.tv), he agreed to answer some serious questions and some really dumb ones. The interview is found on my own website below. Enjoy! :

Next time you talk to him ask him when he's gonna put some of his recipes up on his web site. I could go for some mulligatawny.

I talk to him every day, but alas, he is an actor. He is not the actual dude that makes soup.

Hey, I looked at that web site. It has his picture on it. He *is* the Soup Nazi! I've watched that episode of Seinfeld a dozen times, I think I can recognize him. Plus, he calls HIS OWN SITE "SoupNazi"!! What more proof do you need!

I just think he wants to keep his soup recipes secret. That's why he was so pissed at Elaine when she found them in the armoire. If I knew Julia's email address I'd write to her and ask for some copies of them.

Well, I'm not as secretive as your so-called "friend". Here is my recipe for fish chowder:

Put a big spoonful of Crisco in the bottom of a big soup pan. Let it melt. Add chopped onions (1 large) Add cubed potatoes (4-5 large) Let these cook for a few minutes, until onions are translucent and potatoes are just starting to get soft.

Add fresh white fish - haddock is best, without skins. Don't break it up, just lay it on top. You need a lot so 3 plus pounds is best. If you don't use enough fish it comes out weak. You can make a smaller amount, just halve everything.

Add water...just barely cover the fish with water. (you can also add some canned clam juice or fish broth if desired and if you can find it)

Let simmer 20 minutes or until fish is just starting to fall apart and potatoes are cooked. Don't boil, and don't let the fish disintegrate.

Add a couple of cans of evaporated milk and let it heat through for another 5-10 min. Stir gently. Don't let the fish break up too much...you want big hunks.

Serve with fresh italian bread and butter.

I really hope you're joking. Right?

I just looked and I'm afraid he's right - it is the 'Soup Nazi'!

He had to close down his New York shop when his recipes were published.

Well that explains why he's gone into acting, but I still don't understand why he refuses to put his recipes on his web site if he continues to calls himself the Soup Nazi. Someone could sue for false advertising. The man is leaving himself open to a heap of trouble.

THANK YOU! Now if only the Soup Nazi would link to this page, or something.

Frankly, I don't think he's going to make it as an actor. I can see him now, in a stage play...someone in the audience will cough during one of his lines and he'll turn to them and yell "THAT'S IT, NO ACT 2 FOR YOU!" and stalk offstage.

That's true.

He'd be more suited to teaching.

Medium turkey chilly. I didnt get any bread!

Er

PS. Does anyone have the recipe for the wild mushroom? I know it starts with 5 cups chopped Porcine mushrooms, half a cup of olive oil, 3 pounds of celery, chopped parsley....
