RE: MyTurn on @leelektrik's Lettuce and Courgette Soup - Vegan Version
Your photographs are once again superb and make me really feel like this soup once again @offoodandart.
Thank you for presenting your spin on @leelektrik's soup and elevating it. Between you and Lee we could make this soup quite famous and a favourite in the future.
Adding the bread instead of potato is something new for me. Interested to know if that changed the texture or taste in any way
Thanks @pandamama! And thanks for sharing this recipe.
The bread serves as a thickener. To answer your question, it does change the texture of the soup. It has a lighter effect than potato. And like @chefsteve stated on his comment on this post, it’s an option for a thickener when used with delicately flavored ingredients.
As for taste, it didn’t change much as I used plain baguette. If I had used flavored breads, it could have. Other than the fact that plain bread is what I had on hand, I didn’t want other flavors to overpower the lettuce and zucchini, so it was perfect for the soup!
