That\u2019s why this article is dedicated to providing you with a how-to guide on how to make vegan condensed soup substitutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key to \u201cveganizing\u201d classical non-vegan casseroles is to use vegan condensed soup substitutes. You can make a big batch and freeze what you don\u2019t need. Whenever you do need some, simply defrost it and it\u2019ll be good to go!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is Condensed Soup?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Condensed soup is basically just regular soup that you cook or simmer down until almost all of the water has boiled out. That yields a thick soup that you can later reconstitute with water or milk. Campbell\u2019s Soup Co. created this concept back in 1897, and this revolutionized the soup industry. Condensed cream soups have been the basic recipe of butter, wheat flour, heavy cream, and whatever \u201ccream of\u201d ingredient is in the title, for example, mushroom, broccoli, or chicken. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The vegan substitutes in this article break all the conventional rules. They only contain natural ingredients and they don’t include flour, cream, and butter. Plus, you don\u2019t have to wait hours for your pot of soup to boil down!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What You\u2019ll Need To Make Condensed Soup Substitutes <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are some different recipes in this article, but the basic ingredients you\u2019ll need are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Water<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Red lentils (dried, not canned), which give the soup that almost gelatinous, \u201ccream of\u201d consistency<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Flavor, which will depend on the variation you make<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Raw cashews add great creaminess and fat to condensed soups. You can also replace raw cashews with raw sunflower seeds if you have a nut allergy. Just make sure to add one tablespoon of olive oil to the blender if you use seeds. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    How To Make Healthy Vegan Condensed Soup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The process to make the soup is very simple, but the soup can take a little while to set. You can easily make a double batch of condensed soups and freeze some for later. In general, the following steps will yield excellent vegan condensed soups<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • Step 2: Carefully transfer your soup mixture to a high-speed blender and start blending on low, slowly increasing the speed to blend the ingredients into a creamy consistency. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Step 3: Once your mixture is luxuriously creamy, transfer it to three or four eight-ounce mason jars and screw on the lids. Make sure to take precautions as the when you do this and once the soup has completely cooled, press down on the center of the lid to seal the jar tightly. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
