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

πŸ”₯ 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! 🍜✨
