How To Make A Good Soup For Low Fat Diet? Healthy Living-Part 3

By Haiyan Lai-Heskin

Healthy diet is not only about restricting self towards food which is unhealthy but eating a balanced diet which comprises of all the necessary nutrients which also includes adequate amount of water. Soup is a really healthy habit to get into.

Soup is such a versatile vehicle for aromas and flavours that opens up many possibilities for the cook. Soup is fantastic for warming the cockles on these cold and lonely evenings, and is great even in the summer for that hunger gap that needs filling in minutes.

By removing the fat from the soup, it will be healthier and taste better. Fat-free vegetable soups, vegetable broths, and soups made with skimmed milk are very healthy soup. It is imperative to get rid of all visible fat and grease from the soup. Here are some adept ways to do this:

1. You can cover and refrigerate the soup or broth for 6 to 8 hours or until the fat rises through liquids and solidifies in a layer at the top. Then use a spoon to lift off the hardened fat.

2. If there is not time for refrigerating or cooling the soup first, use bread slices by direct application to the top layer of the soup, in order to blot up or absorb the grease.

3. A few leaves of lettuce dropped in a pot of soup will absorb grease from the top. Remove them after the fat has been absorbed onto the leaf or leaves. The lettuce leaf may also impart a slight flavour to the soup, helping to lend a little zest.

4. To remove the last spots of fat floating on the surface, drag a clean, unprinted paper towel across the top. It will oak up most of the remaining oil. When it is fat saturated, discard the towel.

5. Boil the meat and rinse it under the cold water before you add it into the soup. It not only rid the fat off the soup , but also make the meat much quick to cook and more tender.

Vegetable and vegetable-beef canned soups, yet, are very low in fat content and are the good substitutional choice for the low-fat diet. As Some soup producers make canned soups that have almost a half-teaspoonful of fat per serving of soup when diluted evenly with water. so the dry soup mixes are rather low in fat and are very enjoyable. - 17269
