I need your help !?

Question

I just boiled the following left over vegetable from my fridge. They are bunches of chopped celery leaves, diced onions, strips of carrots and shredded cabbages. Can I add tomatoes ? What else should I add to create a flavorful soup ?

Answer 1

that depends on what kind of soup you want.

if you want a more chicken type of soup, chop up and add some skinless chicken meat and verrrrrrrry slowly cook it (otherwise it gets tough), plus a couple of bouillion cubes, a dab of tomato paste (only for body and depth), a pinch of saffron (if you have it... mostly for colour), a bay leaf and some vermicelli noodles at the very end if you want.

for a more hearty soup, like a minestrone, add some white beans, a chopped potatoe (maybe), for sure the tomatoe, always a couple of bouillion cubes and some type of pasta.

sure you can add tomatoes! you can add anything you want! that's the beauty of soup!

my mum used to make a pan of soup every week and add whatever was left over after suppers (potatoes, gravy, meat, veggies.... you name it!). the soup only got better and better as the week went by!

Answer 2

diced tomatoes are great...also chop some onions to give it a little kick...potato cubes will break down and release some natural sweetness and also the starch will thicken your broth....salt, pepper, and a bay leaf will make a hearty veg soup...bon apetit!!!

Answer 3

Hey trying dicing the tomatos before you add them and maybe a stock cube if you have one?

Answer 4

Garlic! Tomatoes are great. Dried basil, oregano, salt, pepper. Pasta. Some kind of meat if you want it. You'll have a veggie beef or veggie soup!
