Cooking soups
Meats, Poultry and Fish
Cuts of meat that are less tender
should be added early in the cooking
process
Poultry needs to be added early
enough so that it cooks thoroughly
Add fish closed to the end of the
cooking process to keep it from
overcooking.
Grains and Pasta
Allow a little more time in
cooking. Beans and Legumes
Soaked beans, lentils and
black-eyed peas should be
added with the liquid so they
will fully cook
Dense or Starchy Vegetables
A small-diced cut of potatoes,
carrots, and winter squashes will
require 30–45 minutes to cook.
Green Vegetables:
These vegetables should be
added during the final 15–20
minutes of cooking the soup
Adjusting Consistency Thick soups may
continue to thicken during cooking and
may need additional stock or water added
to adjust the consistency
