A variety of ingredients

Don't be afraid to add other ingredients to the standard set of "potatoes and carrots": vegetables, legumes, eggs, several types of meat, and herbs. The more varied the soup, the tastier it is.

Cooking over low heat

Do not let the soup bubble over the edge on the stove. It should be cooked over low heat. It is the long cooking time and maintaining the temperature that helps all the ingredients to cook evenly and reveal their taste and flavor. The soup is rich and balanced.

Adding spices

When all the ingredients of the soup are almost ready, you can add the spices. Then they will absorb the salt evenly, and the spices will retain their flavor. Follow the order of salt-spices-pepper. Also, if you use ready-made spice mixtures, check whether they contain salt so as not to overdo it.

Do not taste hot soup

Many people taste hot soup and decide what is missing. Here you need to take into account that in hot dishes, the salty taste is revealed with a delay. Therefore, if in doubt, let the dish stand for a few minutes, taste it again, and only then add salt.
