Spices for my soup Hi Jane

[Guest guest]

Hi Jane, first off get a good salt. It's well worth the investment, it really

brings out the flavor. I use Celtic sea salt. Believe me you will notice a

difference and now I know why a chef told me to do that 20 yrs ago.

Saute a little finely chopped celery, chopped cilantro, chopped shallot and

minced garlic and toss in the soup. When I make a veggie soup I always include

a little chopped fresh cilantro, it won't make your soup taste like raw

cilantro. A dash of white pepper will help too.

Hope this helps you..............Donna

The thing that I'm the very worst at, is figuring out what to add to a recipe

if I think it needs a " kick " in flavor!

Last night I made broccoli cheese soup but I was disappointed that the soup

didn't live up to what I expected.

I used:

broccoli

cheese

onion

potato

milk

veggie broth

garlic powder

salt

 

Does anyone have any suggestions to kick up the flavor of the left overs?

thanks

Jane

I will look for my Celtic salt site for you. Believe me, it only takes a pinch

and our food will burst with flavor. I can't cook without it.

Thank you for all the help you've offered to make my broccoli cheese soup

better! I added MORE garlic, celery, hot sauce and pepper. It was much better!

I've never used cayenne, that's pepper, right? I didn't have cilantro but I

do like it and will try next time.

Donna, I did look in two different stores for celtic salt, last time you

mentioned it, but didn't find it. I'll probably have to go to a store with a

bigger specially section. I agree, a good salt would have helped.

I love this group! You are always there with help!
