Tips for Making The Perfect Soup
I make a lot of soup, and I’ve learned a few helpful tips and tricks along the way!
- Choose a flavorful vegetable broth. I like to use Edward & Son’s “Not-chicken” boullion cubes which have a lot more flavor than typical boxed vegetable broth. You can also make homemade vegetable stock, if you prefer!
- Immersion blenders are extremely helpful when making blended soups. An immersion blender allows you to blend the soup right in the pot so you don’t have to transfer hot soup to a blender. I love using it for my tomato soup, butternut squash soup, and broccoli cheddar soup. It also allows you to blend it as much or as little as you like.
- I like using a large Dutch oven, which holds heat well and makes it easy to keep the soup warm on the stovetop.

Tips for Storing Leftover Soup
Here are a few tips for storing soup:
- Cool it down first. Before storing your soup, let it cool to room temperature. If you put hot soup in the fridge or freezer, it can raise the internal temperature and compromise the safety of other food.
- Use airtight containers. Use containers with tight-fitting lids to store your soup. This will help to keep it fresh and prevent any spills or leaks. Glass or plastic containers with snap-on lids work well.
- Reheat properly. When you’re ready to eat, reheat your soup thoroughly. If it’s been stored in the freezer, thaw it completely first.
- Avoid freezing cream-based soup. it is not recommended to freeze soup that has heavy cream in it because it will cause the soup to separate when it is reheated and could change the texture. For this recipe, I don’t recommend freezing the soups in this list.

Made the street corn soup. Easily one of the best soups my family has had – my kids want me to do it again tonight! THANKS for the recipes.
I’m definitely saving this post so I can come back to it anytime I’m craving for some creamy soup! I tried to make the cheesy cauliflower soup last night and it was so amazing!
My favorites are the broccolli cheddar and enchilada soup. So good! Cant wait to try the others. Thanks for putting this list together. Its nice to have a soup list handy.
I am a creamy soup person, if I had to but myself in a box – lol! Made the creamy thai — ohmygosh, it was amazing. I’ve bookmarked to try the others later!
Personally made the Thai tomato soup and they taste amazing! They were absolutely flavorful and I love the creaminess of the coconut milk! Will definitely try the cheesy cauliflower soup next time! Thanks a bunch!
Yay! So glad you enjoyed it!
