What is a Soup?

Soups are basically liquid food served warm or Cold. It can be a thick or clear soup. There are many varieties of soups and varies from region to region. Some ingredients like vegetable puree , mashed lentils ,flour etc are used as thickening agents. These days canned or dried soup is commercially available. My preference is always to prepare soups with fresh ingredients at home. In some countries Cold soups are even served as desserts. When you research on soups you can find a large list with so many varieties.

  • Coriander:Fresh coriander imparts a nice flavor and taste to the soup.It is rich in antioxidants and aids digestion.
  • Cherry Tomato:Rich in Vitamin A,C and E.It is rich in lycopene, which is great at fighting free radicals that cause disease.
  • Tom Yum Paste: You can use home made or store bought paste. It adds a nice flavor to the soup. it is also used as a marinade.Each ingredient used in this paste has numerous health benefits. I have used the vegetarian tom yam paste.
  • Coconut Cream: I love the coconut flavor in the soup. You can add coconut milk instead of cream.
  • Red Chilli: Adds some spice kick to the soup.
  • Salt: Most Important ingredient .
  • Lemon Pepper Seasoning: I am in love with this seasoning. Add a nice tangy and spicy taste to the soup.
