Soup Base<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whenever I make soup I always start off with a base of onion, carrots and garlic  (occasionally leeks or celery too). Then I select whatever spices\/seasonings I think will compliment the main ingredients of the soup I am making. As I was adding chicken and butternut squash, I decided a curry type flavour would be perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulking out Soup<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Usually when making soup, if I am not adding protein or some sort then I will usually add a grain or some legumes to bulk it up, but this one really doesn't need any extras. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
