Blend It for a Velvety Finish
Blending your soup with avocado oil mayo creates a rich, smooth texture that enhances both flavor and creaminess. This method is perfect for spicy or tangy soups that need a silky, well-balanced consistency.
Best Soups to Try This With:
✅ Spicy Tomato Basil Soup – Creamy with a slight kick
✅ Roasted Red Pepper Soup – Naturally smoky and vibrant
✅ Buffalo Chicken Soup – A smooth, tangy take on a classic
✅ Korean Spicy Tofu Soup – Balances heat with a velvety finish
How to Blend for the Perfect Texture:
1. Let the Soup Cool Slightly
π₯ Avoid blending boiling hot soup—it can splatter and create a mess. Let it cool for 5 minutes before blending.
2. Use an Immersion Blender or Stand Blender
-
Immersion Blender: Blend the soup directly in the pot for easy cleanup.
-
Stand Blender: Blend in batches, ensuring the lid is vented slightly to release steam.
3. Add Avocado Oil Mayo While Blending
-
Start with 1-2 tablespoons of mayo and blend until fully incorporated.
-
For extra creaminess, add a little more to taste.
4. Adjust the Consistency
-
If the soup is too thick, add a splash of broth or coconut milk while blending.
-
If it's too thin, blend in a little extra mayo for a richer texture.
5. Finish with Toppings
Once blended, pour the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs, chili flakes, or a drizzle of extra mayo for a gourmet touch.
Pro Tips for a Perfect Velvety Soup:
✔ Use room-temperature mayo to prevent clumping.
✔ Blend in small amounts at a time to avoid over-thinning the soup.
✔ Enhance flavor by mixing the mayo with lemon juice, smoked paprika, or garlic before adding.
This technique transforms your soup into a luxurious, restaurant-quality dish. Give it a try and enjoy the velvety goodness! π✨
