Heat oil in nonstick 3-quart soup pan. Brown the yam with cre-ole seasoning
while you cube the russets. Add russet potatoes and garlic and brown until
the vegetables are aromatic and slightly carmelized. Add wine and burn off
for 1 to 1+1/2 minutes. Add 4 cups of water, parsley, soy, corn and black
beans. Stir and add the two types of broth. When dissolved. Mix the cashew
dust with warm water; add to the soup. Bring to a boil, stir, reduce heat
to low, cover and simmer for 40 minutes. Mash some of the potatoes with the
back of a spoon. Stir in the chopped fresh cilantro and serve at once.

GROCERY NOTES: C&W (California and Washington Co) sells a 14-oz bag of
frozen vegetables. One medley contains Sweet Corn, Black Beand Salad with
diced red and green bell peppers and sliced celery. Knorr sells a spicy
tomato and chicken bouillon in the larger cube intended for 2 cups of broth
but so hot and spicy, we cut the cube in half. One envelop of G.
Washington's vegetarian mix for sauce, gravy and soup usually makes 1 cup.

Excellent depth of flavor. Serve with biscuits or corn bread. -Pat and Bob
