When we were visiting Colonial Williamsburg, my wife took a liking to the authentic colonial-style peanut soup available at one of the old-timey taverns there. Does anyone know whether such peanut soup is available somewhere closer to Washington?
The Native American museum has a large, multitribal cafeteria with delights from every part of the country. They had a peanut soup when I was there last year.
Hmm. I’ll have to check that out. Thanks for the suggestion!
Here’s a recipe. It looks pretty simple to make.
Gadsby’s Tavern in Alexandria, VA has it on the menu. Nice historical place, too.
Cool.
Ooohhh. Does anyone have a recipe? Do you use peanuts or peanut sauce? Holds up bottle of peanut sauce. I love that stuff and I’m trying to find things to do with it.
And there’s already a recipe up there. Damn this efficient message board.
I had the same peanut soup in Williamsburg when I was a little girl, and I always remember it. It was so delicious! I’m glad they still serve it!!
Here’s the actual Williamsburg recipe. It’s very similar to the last one I posted.
This sounds really good. I think I’ll put it on my next shopping list.
Mount Vernon has some good peanut soup. And The Green Tree in Leesburg, VA use to as well.
That for the recipes, guys. My mom had mentioned this soup many times after having it in Williamsburg and I’ve always wanted to try it.
This is great!
