I tried to make soup today, but it didn't work out. Sometimes you succeed, sometimes you fail. I don't think of it so much as a failure, as intentionally doing something wrong and I find out what it was. Today, it was boiling the soup for too long at too high of a temperature. I am also trying this new oxo beef seasoning and I also put in unsalted broth and together even with the tomato soup it tasted poor. Then I got distracted, I added the final ingredients, the potatoes and let it on medium. Too far high medium not low medium. In the end I am left with more of a dry stew, edible but not great. I had several bites. I am still getting the hang of this cooking thing, but messing up one soup is not the end of the world. I can try again later, I might even try to just make a cup of the broth to try and go from there. Its supposed to be easy. Update: I followed the ingredients, 2 tsp in 2 cups of boiling water, and put it in my mug. Its actually pretty good as a broth for sipping from a cup.
