Selecting Soups for a Menu
- If you main dish is rich and filling, serve a light or clear soup such as a light pureed vegetable soup.
- If your main dish is light, serve a hearty soup that will enrich your meal, such as a bisque, chowder, or cream soup.
- Avoid repeating ingredients or flavors in the soup that you serve in other courses.
- If your menu has many complicated recipes, choose a simple soup.
- If you plan to serve soup as a main dish, round out your meal with a crisp salad and rolls or crackers.
