Why soup tastes bad: 5 mistakes that will ruin it

There are few people who don't like flavorful, rich, vegetable, meat, and fish soups. It would seem that they are very simple and quick to prepare, but there are problems here too - often the dish turns out to be tasteless due to several mistakes.

Today, FoodOboz editorial team shares with you exactly 5 mistakes when cooking soups that will definitely spoil their taste and flavor.

1. Where to start cooking soup

It is correct to start with sautéing and prepare it while the vegetables and cereals are cooking so that it is slightly infused and soaked.

2. Intuitive addition of vegetables

If you add ingredients at random and throw everything together, you should know that your soup is doomed to taste terrible, or rather, there will be no taste, it will simply be lost.

3. Spices

They should be added at the very end, so the flavor of the dish will be fully revealed. Do not add various flavor enhancers, such as various broth cubes, as they will spoil the natural taste of the vegetables.

4. Greens

Don't throw them into boiling soup, as they will lose their flavor and all their beneficial properties. It is best to add them directly to the plate before eating.

5. How long to cook

The soup is cooked for 20-30 minutes. Do not do this over high heat, cook over moderate heat, and then be sure to cover it with a lid and let it brew.
