About Clear Soup
Clear Soup is a soup made by simmering vegetables in a liquid either stock or water along with mild seasoning salt and pepper. Cornflour is mixed with water and added to make it slightly thick just as in restaurants however if you wish you can skip it.
I am not a big fan of soups and I prefer creamy soups than the clear soups but hubby loves clear soups. But slowly my preference is changing and have started to like all soup recipes.
Sweet Corn Chicken soup and this Veg Soup both are hubbys favorites. I tried to recreate the restaurant taste which I tasted long back and it came pretty close to it as it had a thumps up from hubby. Yes mission accomplished!!

- You can use white pepper powder if you have replacing black pepper.
- Adjust cornflour according to the desired thickness consistency you want your soup to be.

No it is not nonstick not sure of what metal it is….I got it online,missed that link…will let you know once I find it. Iron is always best but to reduce oil I use nonstick pans though not often.
