what is the difference between thick soup and clear soup?

Answer 1

thick soup is more cream based and heavier than clear soup which is more water/broth based

Answer 2

I would say that "thick soup" as it compares to "clear soup" or "clear broth" is that thick soup is clear soup with some additive such as corn starch which would make it thick. You might consider thick to also mean that pieces of chicken, for example, have been added along with noodles and whatever else you can drop in there. Usually, the only times you generally have to deal with this issue is when a doctor prescribes this "clear soup" diet for digestive reasons, or before some types of testing.

Answer 3

Cream, pureed, made with a rue and stew would be a "thick" soup. Clear soup has broth as it's base, like items boiled in water, or a stock of some kind.

A thick soup is where you leave all the meat and veggies in and a clear soup is when you strain all the meat and veggies out. It is also called consomme or broth.
