Soups Making Tips
1. Why We Need Saute Vegetables For Soups?
Some people don’t saute onion and carrot before adding to soups. It up to personal taste preferences. I just going to share what I learned a long time ago. I found a detailed explanation in my Russian textbook for cooks and try my best to translate why better to saute root vegetables before adding to soups. If we saute root vegetables in oil (fat) before adding to soup, flavors hold in oil and not steaming away. By sauteing onion we reduce harsh taste (amount of disulfides) in the vegetable. Tomato paste and carrots better saute in oil (fat) before adding to the soup too. Lycopene (red color of tomato paste) and carotene absorbed in oil and make soup’s liquid pretty. Important to saute carrot before adding to soup for another reason, this simple step helps transition carotin to vitamin A.
2. How To Add Salt To Soups
Just a simple tip about salt. Add salt but give time before taste the soup for salt. If we taste soup immediately after we added salt, some salt maybe not completely dissolve and this way easy oversalt soup.
3. Don’t Let Soup Boil Rapidly
The soup should be cook on slow or moderate boiling. If we let the soup boil rapidly, flavors evaporate very fast and soup will be much lower quality.
4. What Important To Know When We Make Soups With Acids
When we make soup with tomato paste, pickles or other ingredients with high contains acid, the best way at first cook potatoes and after add ingredients with acid. This is important because acid slows down the cooking process of potatoes.
