Equipment

Notes

  • When using any kind of canned food, I recommend using organic and salt-free when possible. 
  • Sometimes I make this soup with noodles; sometimes, I make it without. If you would like to have noodles in it, I recommend cooking them separately. Then, add them directly to your bowl of soup. This way, they won’t get soggy.
