Tips for Mexican Soup

Just like other soups, many of the Mexican soup recipes can be adjusted to be cooked on the stove top, crock pot or instant pot. They can also be made ahead of time and frozen for later. See the individual posts of more recipe tips and tricks. 

Soup in general seems to be an easy recipe to throw together. They’re often seasoned to taste and don’t need a lot of attention when cooked. To make these recipes even easier I like to have precooked chicken and beef in the freezer so I can grab a portion and just toss it in the pot.

Serving soup: Keeping soup warm at a dinner party can be easily done by using a crock pot or a chafing dish. 

One serving is between 8-12 oz. A soup cup can usually hold 8 oz where as a soup bowl can hold 12 oz.

Mexican Style Soups

Seasoning: One of the best things about soup is how easy it is to adjust to your taste. Like other Mexican food, the heat is often more than many people are used to. If you find your soup is too spicy you can simply

• Add dairy such as milk, sour cream or yogurt
• Increase the other ingredients in the recipe to balance the hot flavor
• Sweeten it with honey or brown sugar
• Add a starch like rice or potatoes

If your soup is not spicy enough, or you wish for guests to be able to add their own spice, you can have cayenne pepper, black pepper, chili powder/flakes or hot sauce on the side.
