5. Simple Soup
Soup is one of the best possible meals that you can make in one pot, and it makes for one of the most versatile meals under the sun – or in the kitchen. The basic instructions for how to make soup tends to be the same, and as long as you get to know the basics about the science of soup, you can turn almost anything into this meal.
First, soup needs a liquid component: Usually, this is stock. Second, soup will need fat to bind the ingredients – sometimes this comes from the stock, other times people add ingredients like cream to add the fat component to their soup. What you do with it beyond this is just steeping on low heat, stirring occasionally, letting it reduce and blending after an hour or two of good simmering.
Soups are versatile enough to contain almost anything, so have some fun!
