Most savory soups start with stock. As such, the soup maker should give considerable attention to stock, because this rich broth is so important to the taste of many great soups. Creating stock from scratch is a skill worth mastering, as so many recipes start with stock as the base to add and create rich flavor. Stock is the liquid from boiled meats, poultry, seafood, or vegetables, plus additional seasonings. The stock is filtered through one or more strainers, such as wire mesh or cheesecloth, the solid ingredients are discarded or set aside for later use. The resulting liquid is a rich, flavorful base ready to use in creating soups and stews.

Fresh ingredients make the best dishes. To insure the highest quality results, invest in fresh meats, vegetables, herbs and spices. While the beauty of soup is the ability to use leftovers and items in the refrigerator and pantry that may otherwise spoil, when you are setting out to make a memorable dish, head to the supermarket and purchase fresh ingredients.
