When ;is the best tutu to eat stip?- Just about' .any'. time. Fresh ear' den vegetables are abundant economicaland nutritious. Getting a soup together can be an interesting experi- ence. It's, a good way to else up leftovers because almost anything in the refrigerator can go into it. For liquid, try seasoned. tomato juice, chicken broth. , beef stock or cooking liquid .from vegetatees. Almost; any vegetable goes. The list .is endless. - tomatoes. pleas, carrots, celery, cabbage,. mushrooms, corn, rutabaga, beans or whatever strikes your fancy. Since soup ingredients vary in their cooking times, the trick is to add the quick -cooking, ingredients near the end, so that every- thing is done at the same trate. Fnr example. whole vegetables or large vegetable pieces take from 45 to, 60 minutes, whereas sliced vegetables or small vege- table pieces need about 30 minutes. When the shape of the vegetable is important, as with mushroom and zucchini slices, just pap, them in for the last 'l0 minutes. 'Phis is just about right for frozen .t'egetables as Well. ` .Add. canned or cooked vegetables at the last minute and heat until the soup' returns' to a simmer. By adding the vege- tables at the right time. you'll avoid overcooking them and ensure that they retain most nutrients. Seasonings are also very important for successful`: soup, making.
