Frequently Asked Questions

What Can I Do To Have a Thicker Soup?

If you want your potato soup to be thicker and richer, it is best to use thickeners — flour, cornstarch, and other thickening agents. The thickeners will help avoid the starch from clumping together and evenly dissolves the soup, making it thicker and creamier.

Conclusion

The next time you are in need of a soup dish, consider making this easy and simple recipe. Don't be afraid to experiment if you want to add herbs into it or your spice of choice. Serve this with bread or rice and we guarantee that you'll never look for other soups again.
