Easiest thing about soups is you can build theflavor as you go, tasting often and adjusting. Never any need to throw in all the flavoring at the beginning and risk overdoing something.

My best tip for soup is if you are using garlic put it in at the end, you'll only need a few cloves for a strong flavour in a huge pot. The allicin in garlic is so volatile that it simply decomposes at boiling temperatures.
Cooking garlic longer develops a different flavor, depends what you are going for. If I make a rich garlic cream sauce I saute the garlic well at the beginning and then near the end add more fresh garlic.

That VP probably thinks you're just as poor for making your own soup as you were if you ate it out of a can. What, you don't eat all your meals at exclusive restaurants where you need a reservation? You peasant!
If anyone believes a word of what that overpaid IT guy jackass said has never been inside a facility that makes Campbell Soup.
Their attention to product safety, quality of ingredients, and plant sanitation borders on fanatical. Everything gets inspected, everything gets documented, QC is everything.
Now what he said about having to work with retarded jeets, well, he might have a point, but he never had anything to do with actual food production.
I'm a VP too (just not at Campbell's, I knew someone who was a Director there and from the stories she told me, it's a horrible company) and I'm not a pajeet so I know he's not talking about me.

I like boiling a corned beef brisket, then reducing the broth, adding more beef broth, and adding potatoes, onions, carrots, and spices. It's delicious.
This is so true. Soup is also the easiest thing to make in the world. Take some animal bones (ie. chicken, cow, etc), roast them in the oven for flavour, drop them into a crock pot with water, some vegetables and a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar and walk away for 8 hours. Strain it and you've got a killer bone broth that forms the foundation for any type of soups, stews or dishes.
My poor ass eats past’e fagioli as often as I can during the winter. Sometimes I’ll cook it with pancetta. Always gotta throw the parmigiano rind in there, too.
shit so simple that even the retarded and the mentally impaired (women, niggers) could do it.
pro tip: if you're using creamy soups, remember the fatter the cream the better the result
i personally use 39% cream, and incase i don't have cream just use butter (its literally the same thing)
Yes butter is good but there is nothing quite like fresh cream for soup.
