What each ingredient does

Vegetables
Provide the main texture and body of the soup once cooked until tender.
Plain consommé stock
Forms the clear, savory liquid base that carries the vegetables.

The step that matters

Cooking the vegetables until tender. Vegetables cut into thin strings cook quickly and can turn mushy if overcooked. Checking them as they soften keeps their texture intact.
