Clear Vegetable Soup with Egg Noodles

Every vegetable keeps its shape here: large carrot and celery cubes and wide egg noodles in a clear liquid. First cook a stock from the vegetables and strain it, and only then add the cubes, so the soup stays clear.

  1. 1

    ⚙ SimmeringStove
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  4. 4
    Strain through a fine strainer into a clean pot and discard the vegetables.
