The process of cooking soup does not seem complicated.

But at the same time, many newbies in cooking argue about whether it is necessary to cover the pan with a lid during cooking.

Many people make mistakes in this matter. In this case, the taste, aroma and quality of the first course may still suffer.

How to cook soup correctly

If you cover the soup with a lid, the liquid boils more vigorously. This means that the mass may become cloudy, and as a result, the resulting dish may not seem very appetizing.

Experienced cooks say that you shouldn't use a lid, but there may be exceptions.

For example, if only meat is added, it is better to process it in a closed pan, otherwise this ingredient may turn out too tough, which will spoil the taste of the treat.

Also, soups should be cooked under the lid, which should be thick enough (cream soups).
