Expert Tips
- Double if Needed: To make two servings, simply double the ingredient amounts.
- Make It Creamier: Stir in a little heavy cream or plain yogurt for a richer texture.
- Freezing Tip: If your soup includes pasta, leave it out before freezing. Add cooked pasta when reheating to avoid mushy noodles.
- Add a Garnish: Try toppings like crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, or fresh herbs for extra flavor and color.
Frequently Asked Questions
Gradually stir in small amounts of cream, broth, or water until the soup reaches your desired consistency.

Your recipes and great and I thank you but where can I get that soup bowl shown in the French Onion Soup??
Hi David,
I’m glad you are enjoying the recipes, thank you! That beautiful bowl came from a gallery/shop in England. I fell in love with it and actually bought the same bowl in three colors. The website for the gallery is http://www.newashgate.org.uk/.
