The base of soup is just like the bottom half of a delicious sandwich. It binds everything together and makes it interesting. Without a good base, your soup can taste bland or boring. That means using the right ingredients to formulate a good soup base.

Soup typically starts with a mirepoix: onion, carrot, celery. These vegetables bring an intense, savory flavor to your soup. When you cook them in a pot with an ounce or two of oil or butter, they release their natural sugars, which begin to caramelize. This gives it a rich, earthy flavor that will take your soup to the next level!

Building a flavor-packed foundation for your favorite soups.

Then, you can season your broth with some herbs and spices. Herbs such as thyme, rosemary and bay leaves can impart a fresh smell to your own soup. Spices such as pepper, garlic and paprika can help people heat it up a bit and add flavor. Just don’t go overboard or your soup might be too concentrated.

You can also boost the flavor of your soup base by adding meat or bones. For instance, if you are making chicken soup, you might begin by browning chicken pieces in your pot. It’ll create a deep flavor that will blend into the rest of your soup. P.S. You can also save bones from leftover meat to use for a homemade broth. The bones you used to boil the soup — just boil them in water for a couple of hours and you have a tasty base.
