The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

- #110546

ingredients
1/4 cup full-flavored olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
5 cloves garlic, chopped
1 pound lentils
4 ounces sun-dried tomatoes, cut small pieces
1 medium fennel bulb, including stalks, cut 1/2" pieces
3 quarts water
2 teaspoons coarse sea salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 teaspoon fennel seed
directions
In a 6 quart pressure cooker, warm oil over medium heat and saute onions until they begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute another minute. Add remaining ingredients.
Cover pot securely and bring to high pressure and cook at high pressure for 30 minutes.
Allow pressure to reduce naturally, about 15 minutes.
Uncover pot and, with a wooden spoon, smash the large pieces of fennel against the side of the pot. Taste and correct with salt and pepper.
Serve hot with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Or serve topped with a slice of toasted bread rubbed with garlic and drizzled with oil.

Pizza night is always a favorite, especially when you have great tasting pizza from some of the most popular restaurants.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I chose to make this in the crockpot. It was very tasty. The kids loved it! I served the soup with a crusty bread which was perfect. Thanks for the great recipe!
