Soup Without a Recipe
1. Prepare your broth. Choose one of three ways:
a. Make your own
b. Use powdered
c. use canned
2. Chop your vegetables – onions are in most soups. Find whatever you can from the fridge.
3. At this point nothing has been made in the soup pot. If you are using raw meat – cook it now!! Cook up the meat in the pot being used for soup.
4. Take the meat out of the pot and add a small amount of oil and sauté the vegetables.
5. Once the vegetables are cooked add the meat to the pot along with the spices and seasonings.
6. Pour the broth into the soup pot. Add additional liquid (usually water) to cover what is in the pot.
7. Add starchy foods – i.e. potatoes, corn, rice, etc. Cook for 20 minutes.
8. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, cream and/or fresh herbs.
9. Thicken soup now by adding cornstarch or flour. OR add noodles and cook for 5 minutes.
