Winter soup: which ingredients to choose?
Seasonal vegetables of course, your choice (squash and pumpkin, potatoes, carrots, broccoli, kale, cauliflower, fennel, lentil, sweet potato, endive…) but also aromatic herbs, starchy foods ( semolina, potatoes, rice, etc.) and condiments (spices, coconut milk, sesame seeds, etc.).
The idea here is to have fun and vary the pleasures.
What cooking method should I use?
To save time, Raphaël Gruman advises favoring “precooked vegetables, like cans of lentils or cans of beans“.
Another possibility, opt for the pressure cooker “which cooks vegetables under pressure, very quickly“or the microwave”which cooks the flesh of potatoes or sweet potatoes very well“.
Finally, if you don’t have time to peel and cut the vegetables: “Buy Picard frozen vegetables, very practical, because they are already cut into pieces. Then just pour them into the pot“, confides the specialist.
