Soup Making Tips -
Red Onion
Red onions are purple or reddish purple in appearance, have a bright dry skin covering a purple colored bulb. The flesh of the onion is white. Red onions are less pungent than yellow or white onions, and their biting, but sweet flavor
makes them an excellent choice for use in salads. Red onions are excellent in soups and stews for their color, texture and flavor and make an excellent garnish when diced finely.
Soup Making Tips -
Frozen Chopped Broccoli
Frozen chopped broccoli is excellent for soups as the stems and florets have been cut into similar size pieces and the ability to keep a bag in the freezer until needed is a nice convenience. Thaw frozen broccoli overnight in the refrigerator,
if possible.
