Helpful Tips:
Bottle your soup it will keep in your fridge for 7 days, this recipe will make 12 one cup bottles. You must bottle while your soup is hot, pour hot soup in your bottles seal on caps let set on counter until room temperature then store in fridge. If you like to freeze soup , after your soup have cooked let pot of soup cool to room temperature then scoop up in freezer containers , date each container store in freezer.
If you are using leftover turkey from your roasted turkey, cut off pieces to use for your soup. But if you like using the bones and dark meat boil first and remove any bones before adding vegetables.
I love making soups they are one of my favourite meals to make because to me it’s like comfort foods. Starting my soups from scratch building on those big flavours to create a delicious boiler of soup. Then having a slice of homemade bread with butter melting over it to soak up the last drop of soup in my bowl. Mmmmm
Those of you that have never made soup before this is the recipe for you and of I also have a step by step video there for you to cook along with me. You will need a boiler, ingredients and iPad or laptop to take into your kitchen and start your first homemade turkey soup.
But for those of you that is saying, I’ve made lots of turkey soup before I don’t need someone elses recipe or to show me how to make soup. I’m saying, just give it a try and then after you have made and eaten this delicious soup send me a message to share with me how you enjoyed it. Plus you can share with me your favourite soup recipe to try. ?
