Tips:
- Select fresh, seasonal vegetables: Look for vibrant colors and firm textures. Aim for organic or locally grown produce whenever possible.
- Wash and prep vegetables thoroughly: Clean vegetables thoroughly under running water to remove dirt and impurities. Cut vegetables into uniform pieces for even cooking.
- Use flavorful broth: Choose a flavorful broth that complements the vegetables you're using. Homemade broth is ideal, but store-bought low-sodium broth can also work well.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: Avoid cramming too many vegetables into the pot. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and can result in a watery soup.
- Season to taste: Taste the soup throughout the cooking process and adjust seasonings as needed. Add salt, pepper, herbs, and spices to your preference.
- Serve with toppings: Enhance the soup's flavor and texture with toppings like croutons, grated cheese, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil.
