Clear Soup at Home: Consommé Basics You Need to Try

Start with a rich, flavorful broth—chicken, beef, or veggie all work. The better your base, the better your consommé. Whisk together egg whites (or try agar or gelatin for a modern twist) with a splash of cold water and some chopped veggies. Stir this mixture into your cold broth. Gently heat the pot and stir constantly until it’s just warm. Then stop stirring and let it slowly come to a simmer. Don’t let it boil! The egg whites (or alternative) will form a "raft" that traps impurities. Once the raft forms, poke a hole in the center to let the liquid bubble through. Simmer gently for about 45 minutes, skimming off any foam. Carefully ladle the clear liquid through cheesecloth. That’s your consommé—crystal clear and super tasty. Patience is key, but the result is totally worth it. #Consommé #SoupRecipe #CookingTips #Food #Cooking
