Who doesn’t love a comforting bowl of soup, especially in these winter days? However, we often discover that making soup isn’t as easy as it seems, especially when it comes to getting the right consistency. If you want a thinner soup, the trick is simple: just add a bit more liquid. However, making it thicker is a different story. Luckily, the latter doesn’t have to be complicated if you use one of these three methods.

Add Flour

Perhaps one of the simplest methods is to simply add some flour or a similar starchy ingredient to the soup. What you want to do is to pour some soup broth into a bowl, add flour, and mix it until dissolved. Then, pour the broth and flour mix into the soup. This will make the soup thicker while helping you avoid lumps.

Add a Creamy Ingredient

Adding a creamy ingredient like milk, yogurt, or cream will immediately thicken up your soup. Granted, this might change the taste, but it won’t be for the worst.

Use Your Blender

This method works great if you have a chunky soup filled with veggies on your hands. Simply take a few cups of the soup, veggies included, and put it in a blender. Blend until smooth, and then reintroduce it to the rest of the soup. This way, you won’t compensate for the flavor while achieving your primary goal.

Have you ever sat down at a diner, a restaurant, or even someone’s house, and got ready to eat some soup, only to find out that the soup isn’t hot? We’re not talking about cold soup, by the way. We’re talking about soup that’s lukewarm, almost as if the one serving it truly believes it’s hot, but wasn’t exactly on top of things. This, believe it or not, happens more often than you may think—and here’s why you should avoid it at all costs.

It Changes Everything

Soup, like tea or coffee, gets much of its appeal from being steaming hot. If it’s anything less than that, it lowers in value substantially. If you eat a burger, pizza, or plate of chicken that’s simply warm but not hot, it wouldn’t be such a big deal. But soup doesn’t have the luxury of being “warm”. It must be piping hot because otherwise, it’s a dealbreaker for most people.

Ensure That It’s The Right Temperature

So if you’re preparing a meal for a group of people, make sure your soup is the right temperature. It would be a shame for you to work so hard on your soup only for it to suffer for something that could’ve easily been prevented.

French onion soup is made with a long list of delicious add-ins, ranging from onions to croutons, but it simply wouldn’t be the same without its cheesy topping. If cheese is the reason why you love this soup, here are three tips that will help you turn it into a cheesy delight.

Right Cheese

The choice of cheese can make or break your French onion soup, so choose carefully! The recipe you follow will probably give you all the instructions you need, and most of them call for Swiss cheese. Gruyere is the safest possible option due to its rich texture and delicious flavor.

Melting Technique

If you’ve ever tried melting cheese before, you already know that it’s a time-sensitive matter where every second counts. Multitasking is not an option when you’re melting cheese because you have to keep a close eye on it and remove it from fire once it gets golden brown and bubbly.

Last Ingredient

French onion soup comes with a long list of ingredients and you shouldn’t mess up their order. “Save the best for last” is the rule you should live by here, and always use your cheese as a topping over bread or croutons once you’ve added all the other ingredients to the mix.
