CHORIZO AND PARSNIP SOUP



Chorizo and Parsnip Soup image

This is based on a recipe I found in a supermarket magazine. The original recommends serving this semi-chunky so if you don't want to puree the whole batch at the end just do half to keep more texture in the soup. A great use of those winter vegetables. The topping is optional.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your soup. Look for good-quality chorizo, parsnips, and chicken broth.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many ingredients to the pot, the soup will be watery and bland. Add the vegetables and chorizo in batches, and cook them until they are softened before adding the next batch.
  • Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop. The longer you simmer the soup, the better it will taste.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream to brighten up the flavors.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for chorizo and parsnip soup include shredded cheese, diced avocado, and crumbled tortilla chips.
