In many cultures, soup is an important part of the diet and thus there are numerous recipes and variations!
You can enhance the flavour of your soups with a bit of nuts; fresh herbs; a few drops of flavoured oil; grains; raw, braised or sautéed vegetables, etc.
Technique:
Soup can be made in four different ways:
- Mix raw vegetables with hot water or broth and serve hot or cold
- Cook chopped vegetables in water or broth, blend and serve hot or cold
- Cook finely minced vegetables in water or broth, do not blend; serve hot or cold
- Make a gazpacho by marinating raw vegetables (and fruit) with an acidic ingredient (a light, sweet vinegar, citrus juice, etc.) and blend; serve cold
