Sautee Vegetables Before Adding to Soup
Sautéing vegetables in oil or butter before adding them to a soup will seal in their flavor and help keep them firm after they are added to the soup.
Sautee Vegetables Before Adding to Soup
Preparing Dense Vegetables to Add to Soup:
- Clean vegetables properly before preparing.
- Peel the skin off from vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes parsnips and turnips.
- Dense vegetables should be cut into small consistent size pieces to allow them to cook evenly and thoroughly.
- If using a slow cooker, onions are slow to cook so cut them into small pieces so they will cook thoroughly. Onions are slow to cook in a slow cooker. Sautéing the onions before adding them to the slow cooker is a good way to ensure they will cook thoroughly.
- Onions and other dense vegetables can also be sautéed for added color, flavor, and firmness before adding them to the soup, whether it is cooked in a slow cooker or on the stovetop.
