How To Make Soup Like We Do Principles:
- Use more water. The biggest mistake I see is people adding too many veggies and not enough water. Use at least 2 cups.
- Use fewer vegetables. We use just 1 carrot, 1 celery, 1 tomato, and 1 garlic, for example. People at home are packing the container full of veggies and wondering why their soup is frothy and foamy. It's pure fiber that's why!
- Start with hot water. We use boiling water in the demo. This makes for a faster and tastier soup. The hotter the better.
- Be precise on your seasonings. It's easy to ruin a big batch of soup with the wrong seasonings. We use a blend from www.blenditup.com so there is no guess work.
- Be patient. You want the base of the soup smooth so give it a good 60 seconds on high.
- Use the variable speed to reduce foam. Variable speed 3 will pop the bubbles nicely.
- Use a bouillon. This is a must! It's nearly impossible to mess up a soup if you use bouillon. We use Knorr in the demo, but it has MSG. For MSG free bouillon, visit www.blenditup.com or a health food store.
