everyone define what a soup is in the comments of this post I need some data on the human food that people eat that is called ‘soup’
meat, bones, and plants boiled until it’s all soft and flavorful.
Me, drinking the Labrea Tar Pits: Mmmmm! Soup!
Liquid Aspic
savory foods cooked in, and submerged in or pureed with, a thin savory liquid = soup.
savory foods cooked and submerged in a thick savory liquid = stew by default, chili if contains tomato and hot pepper, chowder if contains seafood and cream.
savory foods added to rice cooked to softness in a thin savory liquid = congee.
neutral flavored grain cooked to softness in water or milk = pottage or porridge, whether savory or sweet flavorings are used.
sweet foods cooked in sweetened, thickened liquid = pudding.
dessert soup = an abomination.
hope this helps.
