Hey there, foodies! Today, I'm super stoked to share with you how to make a soup mold using parsnip soup. As a soup mold supplier, I've seen firsthand how these molds can transform your soup - making and storage game. So, let's dive right in!
What You'll Need
First off, gather your ingredients. For the parsnip soup, you'll need about 4 - 5 medium - sized parsnips, peeled and chopped. You'll also need one onion, finely chopped, two cloves of garlic, minced, a tablespoon of olive oil, a cup of vegetable broth, a half - cup of milk (you can use dairy or non - dairy), a teaspoon of salt, a quarter - teaspoon of black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
As for the equipment, besides the usual pots and pans, you'll need a blender or an immersion blender. And of course, you'll need a soup mold. We've got some great options like the 3 Pcs Soup Mold and the 2Pcs Soup Mold. These molds are made of high - quality materials, perfect for freezing and storing your delicious soups.
Making the Parsnip Soup
Let's start with making the parsnip soup. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, which usually takes about 3 - 4 minutes. Then, toss in the minced garlic and cook for another minute or so until it's fragrant.
Next, add the chopped parsnips to the pot. Stir them around so they're coated with the oil and onion mixture. Let them cook for about 5 minutes, until they start to soften a bit. Pour in the vegetable broth, cover the pot, and let it simmer for about 15 - 20 minutes, or until the parsnips are fork - tender.
Once the parsnips are soft, remove the pot from the heat. If you're using a blender, carefully transfer the soup to the blender (be careful as it's hot!). If you're using an immersion blender, you can blend the soup right in the pot. Blend until the soup is smooth.
Now, add the milk, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg to the blended soup. Stir well to combine all the flavors. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed. You might want to add a bit more salt or pepper depending on your preference.
Preparing the Soup Mold
Before pouring the soup into the mold, make sure it's clean and dry. You can wash it with warm, soapy water and then dry it thoroughly. If you want, you can also line the mold with plastic wrap. This will make it easier to remove the soup mold later.
Filling the Soup Mold
Slowly pour the parsnip soup into the soup mold. Fill it up to about three - quarters full. This gives the soup some room to expand when it freezes. You don't want the soup to overflow and make a mess in your freezer.
Once you've filled all the compartments of the soup mold, cover it with the lid if it comes with one. If not, you can use a piece of plastic wrap to cover it tightly.
Freezing the Soup Mold
Place the filled soup mold in the freezer. It usually takes about 4 - 6 hours for the soup to freeze completely, depending on your freezer's temperature. Once it's frozen, you can remove the soup molds from the freezer. If you lined the mold with plastic wrap, simply lift the wrap to take out the soup molds.
Using the Soup Molds
These parsnip soup molds are super convenient. You can use them in a few different ways. You can reheat the soup molds in the microwave. Just place the soup mold in a microwave - safe dish and heat it on medium power for a few minutes, stirring occasionally until it's heated through.
You can also add the frozen soup molds to a pot on the stove. Add a bit of water or broth to the pot and heat it over medium heat, stirring until the soup is thawed and heated.
Benefits of Using Soup Molds
Using soup molds like the ones we offer has a bunch of benefits. First of all, it's a great way to portion your soup. You can make a big batch of parsnip soup and then divide it into individual servings. This is perfect for busy days when you don't have time to cook.
