Quick Tips & Ideas

Thicken Soup with Potato Flakes

Other Soup Making Tips:
  • Fresh herbs may lose their flavor when cooked for a long period time so add more herbs shortly before serving to boost the flavor.
  • Soup too salty? Try adding a teaspoon of sugar and a teaspoon of cider vinegar to combat the saltiness, or try adding a raw potato to the soup to absorb some of the extra salt.
  • Soup too sweet? Try adding a little salt to tame down the sweetness or 1 teaspoon of apple cider or white vinegar. Taste test after each addition so that the taste of the soup doesn't change too much or become too salty.
  • To remove fat from soup or stock, add ice cubes to the soup, stir to allow fat to collect on the ice cubes, and then remove before they have melted.
  • Another method to remove fat is to allow the soup to cool by placing it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. The fat will have solidified on top and can then be easily scraped off.
