Freezing Soup??

Hi everyone!

As you can probably tell from my recent posts, I am no Jamie Oliver lol!

I made my Spicy Cumin & Pumpkin soup tonight - it is soooo yummy! I made four portions, and now I'm thinking I may freeze it.

So......a) does this kind of soup freeze well, or does it come out really watery when you thaw it?



All soups freeze fantastically. If you are making a creamy soup I would reccommend adding the cream after you have thawed it out. Creamy soups freeze better without the cream.

I am so glad you are not a Jamie Oliver . He is my least favourite chef lol.


b) do you have to defrost it thoroughly in the fridge before cooking again? c) can you microwave it to heat it back up again?




It is always advisable to thaw out frozen food but I do just bung mine in the pan from frozen and cook it to boiling point.

Sorry for what are probably daft questions!!!

Your questions are far from daft. Very sensible in fact.
