Transforming the idea of soup

Online, you can find newly created soup recipes every day as well as numerous sources of inspiration from other countries and cultures. Soups are increasingly becoming part of an eating culture that values quality and healthiness.

Nowadays, soups are no longer boring or colorless: Instead, they’re lively, original and delicious!

 


Why soups are so healthy

The invigorating effect of chicken soup has even been scientifically proven. A summery alternative to chicken soup is the Thai coconut soup Tom Kha Gai. With ginger as one of its ingredients, it is also a good immune booster. Soups provide us with plenty of important vitamins and minerals. Depending on which ingredients are chosen, they can also be very healthy. If you prepare the soup yourself instead of getting a ready-made soup from the supermarket, you can also be sure what’s in it: no hydrogenated fats, extra sugar, or additives.

 

If you cook soups with lots of vegetables, you’ve got a guaranteed vitamin supplier. The high proportion of vegetables in soups fills us up through their dietary fibers.
