Sometimes the consistency of the first course turns out to be too liquid, which is especially critical when preparing cream soups.
In such cases, experienced housewives will always find a way to correct the situation.
What methods can you pay attention to?
Starch
If you want to significantly improve the consistency of the soup, then you should pay attention to corn starch. With its help, any soup will become thicker. Of course, you can take the potato version, but the result will not be as impressive.
The starch is first diluted in a separate container using hot water and only then added to the dish a couple of minutes before it is ready.
Vegetables
If you are initially unsure that the chosen recipe "promises" to make a thick soup, then it would be wise to supplement it with vegetables.
The best options are carrots, potatoes and pumpkin. In addition, the dish will definitely be more delicious and healthy.
Lentils
Many people who watch their diet use lentils in the preparation of various dishes. For example, soups become thicker and more nutritious.
It is best to use yellow or red lentils, as they cook beautifully.
