What each ingredient does

Clear soup
Forms the liquid base that carries the flavor of the whole dish.
Italian paste
Adds concentrated seasoning and flavor to the broth as it cooks.

The step that matters

Sprinkle the Italian paste into the boiling soup. Adding paste to a rolling boil can scorch or clump it before it dissolves. Stirring it in evenly lets it disperse and flavor the whole pot.
