What soup to cook quickly and easily. How to make quick soup

Soups are an important component of every person's diet. They help you feel full and restore strength. They began to cook about 400 years ago, from the time dishes appeared. However, you should not think that the cooking process was the same as it is now. The cooking method began to be used much later.

First courses began to become widespread only at the end of the 17th century. In Russian cuisine, liquid dishes were usually called stews. The name “soup” began to be used only under Peter I.

Today there are about 150 options, each of which is divided into another thousand types, and also in several variations.

They can be hot - borscht, rassolniki, solyanka, cabbage soup, with various types of meat, fish, vegetables or cereals. Cold liquid dishes are good in the summer heat and are prepared mainly with light broth, water, kvass, and fermented milk products (okroshka, kholodnik, tarator).

However, what they all have in common is that 50% is liquid, the other half is various fillings. The ingredients are a wide variety of products: vegetables, cereals, pasta, fruits, herbs, spices, meat products. It is impossible to say which one is better. Everyone chooses according to their taste, preference and even lifestyle.

It is difficult to live without first courses, at least for us Slavs. We are used to lunch consisting of a hot liquid dish, and then a second dish, and often even dessert, is served. Of course, for some this is completely too much. The Greeks, for example, rarely eat liquid dishes, such as fresh fish soup, and sometimes light vegetable soup. But we are a different matter: pea soup with crackers and smoked meats is simply a miracle! Shchi or borscht with meat, light vegetable soup, cold soups like okroshka - these are amazingly delicious! And without a hot one, it’s somehow not comfortable, especially in the cold. That’s why our website contains various soups, recipes with photos that are simple and tasty for every day.

And how good shurpa is, which you can cook in nature with friends, and you can’t describe it; even everyone’s favorite kebab will not surpass it in popularity. The dish came from the east and gained a foothold among fishermen and hunters, and lovers of recreation outside the city, in the silence of the forest. The Italian light minestrone soup has also caught on with us; on the website you will find several options for preparing it, so see how to prepare minestrone soup in the recipe announcements. Interestingly, minestrone can literally be translated from Italian as “big soup”; you will find a recipe for making it at home in the same section.

Soups are prepared with meat, often fish, and often mushroom broths, each of which adds a special note to the first course. It is also important, if you are going to prepare soup for your family, to know the nuances of preparing food and seasoning broths. Eg:

* borscht or pickle soup is excellently prepared with meat broth, fish soup with fish soup, and soup with potatoes and cereals with mushroom broth;

* bay leaf and spices are added only at the end of cooking;

* tomato paste is never added at the beginning of cooking vegetables, as they will become tough;

* cut potatoes into strips for vermicelli soups, and into cubes for borscht;

* when preparing the frying, the flour is brought to a ruddy color, then it is diluted with a decoction.

When preparing soups, various roots, herbs, and spices are often used; they must be added correctly. For example, initially chopped onion is fried for about five minutes, then carrots are added, after 7 minutes a root of celery or parsley, greens at the end, and a tomato at the very end of frying. This way you can achieve the greatest aroma and taste of your dishes.

Many people want to know the recipe for pea soups, simple and tasty, with photos, step by step, they search on websites. Ours is no exception, you will find pea soup with delicious smoked meats, homemade croutons, as is customary for the Germans to prepare them, you can add wine and Parmesan to such a dish - and you will get Italian pea soup, spicy and tender. Or you can simply prepare a lean vegetarian soup, which will also be nourishing and tasty. But you need to add spices, herbs, and flavor it with fried onions and carrots.

Tip: When frying vegetables, consider the volume of the pan and vegetables. If the layer in the pan is more than 3 cm, the vegetables will not fry, but will begin to stew - and this is a completely different taste. And a wonderful and hearty kharcho soup migrated to us from Georgia a long time ago; you will also find a recipe for preparing it at home in our section. Traditionally ground nuts, tkemali sauce, beef and rice are added to it. It’s very tasty, although we Slavs have long ago adjusted the recipe for this dish to suit our taste; we simply cook it spicy, with tomato paste.

We also have a wide range of cold soup recipes. There are just a lot of options for okroshka, beetroot, botvinnik and so on. Whether it’s hot or cold, our site will help you prepare delicious and simple hot and cold soups; be sure to look through the sections of the site and please your household with a variety of delicious first courses. If you are a novice housewife, on our website you will find recipes for soups, simple and tasty, with photos, in abundance. Choose, treat your relatives tasty and satisfying.

Instant soups can and should be delicious. Making soup quickly from familiar ingredients is not as difficult as it seems at first glance.

Instant Russian folk soup - okroshka. It prepares very quickly - you just need to chop the vegetables and herbs and pour kvass on them. There are as many options for okroshka as correct pizza recipes. That is, they are all correct and differ only in the set of ingredients, but not in the principle of addition. Try to find real bread kvass - this kind is sometimes sold in yellow barrels, or at least do not use soda with a dozen ingredients, which is sometimes passed off as our ancient drink. Okroshka can be vegetable, meat, fish, with or without pickled vegetables, with sour cream, horseradish, mustard. And kvass is sometimes replaced with liquid kefir or ayran.

Ingredients (1 serving):
1 egg,
½ fresh cucumber
2-3 feathers of green onions,
1 radish,
50 g bread,
dill,
1 tbsp. spoon of sour cream,
1 teaspoon mustard,
200 ml bread kvass,
pepper,
salt.

Preparation:
Boil the egg for 5 minutes. Cut the cucumber and radish into small cubes. Chop the onion and dill. Dry the bread (you can use a toaster) and cut into cubes. Cool the egg, cut into large pieces. Place sour cream in the bottom of a bowl, add vegetables, egg, bread and mustard on top. Pepper and salt. Pour in kvass and sprinkle with fresh chopped herbs.

Spanish soup is no more difficult to prepare and no longer takes okroshka. By the way, the ancestor of gazpacho - a simple stew of water, oil, spices and bread - is found in all traditional cuisines of the world. For example, in Russian cuisine the closest analogue is prison. Despite its unimpressive name, prison- this is a very interesting and simple soup, a relative of the famous stew of Roman legionnaires. But let's return to modern times - tomatoes appeared in gazpacho only at the end of the 19th century, which the Spaniards were very happy about.

Gazpacho

Ingredients (2 servings):
100 g bread,
4 tomatoes,
1 cucumber
1 sweet pepper,
1 onion,
2 cloves of garlic,
3-4 tbsp. spoons of olive oil,
greenery,
black pepper,
salt.

Preparation:
Soak the bread in water, rinse and peel the vegetables. Peel the tomatoes and remove the seeds. Blend everything in a blender, add ice water or ice, run for a few more seconds, and your soup is ready.

The only thing simpler than cold soups are instant vegetable soups. By the way, fashionable lately Bonn soup for weight loss prepared from vegetables. The principle of its action is based on the fact that our body requires more energy to digest vegetables than they give us. Of course, we get more fiber, more vitamins and nutrients, and all sorts of deposits and fat gradually melt away, the body puts itself in order. Benefits, vitamins, weight loss and new fresh taste in one plate.

Ingredients:
100 g green celery,
2-3 onions,
4 tomatoes,
¼ head of cabbage,
1 sweet pepper,
greenery,
pepper,
salt.

Preparation:
Wash the celery, bell peppers and tomatoes, chop large or medium, chop the cabbage and onion, add salt and boil for 10 minutes in boiling water. Add chopped herbs to the finished soup, pepper and serve.

Soup for weight loss can be made from any vegetables. The main thing is not to let the vegetables turn into an unpleasant watery mush. Use spices, color the taste the way you want, make it spicy or bland, try different combinations of vegetables, conditionally dividing them into “white”, “green-yellow” and “red”, and remember that potatoes contain a large amount of starch and none does not promote weight loss.

Sometimes you just want soup, without using recipes at all and without a specific desire for any special ingredients. My grandmother made this soup in 10 minutes, when on another damp autumn day I caught a cold, and everything seemed gray and gloomy. But this soup restored the joy of life and faith in beauty. Its composition is mystically simple: 1 potato, ½ carrot, 1 clove of garlic. To make cooking faster, it is better to cut the potatoes very finely, and grate the carrots and garlic. Cook for 10 minutes and crush the potatoes with a potato masher. Don't forget to salt it! Of course, if you eat borscht or kharcho every day, this soup will seem simple, but if after a series of main courses with heavy ingredients you forgot the last time you made soup, then this is a godsend. Serve it in broth mugs - it’s more cozy.

Puree soup is not much more difficult to prepare than okroshka, except that it requires a food processor or blender. There are two ways to prepare vegetables: stewing and boiling. When stewing, vegetable oil and pre-frying are used, which makes the taste somewhat clearer and more contrasting, but also adds extra calories due to a few tablespoons of oil. Cooking is easier, but some people will find the taste of boiled, pureed vegetables bland and want to add either butter, or hot milk, or maybe some bright spices.

Ingredients:
800 g pumpkin,
200 ml water,
200 ml milk,
salt to taste.

Preparation:
Wash and peel the pumpkin. Cut into medium pieces and pour boiling water over it. Bring to a boil and cook for 3 minutes. Warm the milk and pour it into the pan with the pumpkin. Add some salt. Transfer the pumpkin pieces and liquid to the bowl of a food processor and puree. Serve with croutons or toast.

Ingredients:
1 carrot,
1 turnip,
1 celery root,
200 g green peas,
1 potato,
1 onion,
3 cloves of garlic,
500 ml water,

pepper, salt to taste.

Preparation:
Peel the vegetables and cut into medium-sized pieces. Boil the water. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a deep frying pan and fry the garlic, then the onion and the rest of the vegetables. Pour in boiling water and cover the pan with a lid. Add some salt. Simmer for 10 minutes and transfer to a blender cup. Grind into puree. Serve hot. Serve in broth mugs. Sprinkle rye bread croutons on top of the soup.

There's nothing simpler than chicken soup. Let's say more - chicken soup is simple, quick and surprisingly tasty. Chicken goes well with carrots, celery, potatoes, rice and herbs, such as dill.

Ingredients:
200 g chicken fillet,
1 carrot,
100 g rice,
½ celery root,
1 onion,
4 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil,
bunch of dill,
black pepper,
salt.

Preparation:
Rinse the rice in several waters. Heat oil in a frying pan. Place a saucepan with 2 liters of water on the fire. Cut the chicken into small pieces, chop the carrots and onions, chop the celery finely. Fry the chicken first, add the onion, celery and carrots. Place the roast in boiling water and add salt. Cook for 15 minutes over low heat. Pepper 3 minutes before readiness. Turn off the heat. Let it brew for 5 minutes. When serving, sprinkle the soup with chopped dill.

Another component worthy of attention is mushrooms. Porcini mushrooms or champignons are best suited for soups. Dry porcini mushrooms are sold in any supermarket; you can simply add them to vegetable soup to get a charming mushroom aroma. But if there are no white ones, then you can use champignons or, as a last resort, frozen honey mushrooms.

Ingredients:
200 g champignons,
1 potato,
1 carrot,
1 onion,
5-6 heads of Brussels sprouts,
50 g butter,
Bay leaf,
black pepper,
salt.

Preparation:
Wash, peel, and dry the mushrooms. Peel the vegetables and cut into small pieces. Cut the Brussels sprouts in half. Place potatoes and cabbage in boiling water. Cut the mushrooms into large slices. Heat butter in a frying pan, fry mushrooms, add onions and carrots. Add the stir fry to the pan. Season with salt, add bay leaf and pepper. Cook for another 10 minutes.

The greatest culinary inventors and the most sincere connoisseurs of good simple cooking are students. Anything a student can come up with to speed up the cooking process. But no concentrates or artificial additives - health is more important than speed!

Ingredients:
100 g vermicelli,
1 carrot,
3 cloves of garlic,
4 tbsp. spoons of vegetable oil,
1 potato,
1 bunch of green onions,
1 bunch of parsley,
black pepper,
salt.

Preparation:

How to cook soup

To make the broth rich, the meat should be filled with cold water. The broth is quickly brought to a boil and then simmered over low heat.
If you cook the broth over high heat, the meat will be tastier and the broth will not be as rich.
When cooking soup, after each addition of vegetables, quickly bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat.
Stir soups using slow circular movements. Only in this case the integrity of the vegetables in the soup is not compromised.
Do not add water to the broth; it greatly affects the taste of the broth. If it is necessary to add (too much salt or too little liquid), then use boiling water.
To prevent the soup or broth from losing its beautiful transparent color, always remove the bay leaf from the soup after cooking.
Any soup will be much tastier if, after cooking the soup, you let it brew for a little while.
Heat the broth over low heat, uncovered. This way it will better retain its transparency and taste.
