Adding a lot of ingredients to your soup doesn't make it a better soup, it just clouds the original flavor of the soup, which was quite tasty and enjoyable.
If I want noodle soup I want noodle soup :/. Not a what ever soup disguised as noodle soup.
"But it has noodles in it" Alright, great for the noodles. They are fighting for their lives in there, though.
And this is not to say that adding ingredients is bad adding ingredients is a part of cooking it is needed, but it should never come at the expense of the soup's integrity.
putting my "Im not sharing too much personal info" glasses on "but"
as a kid I used to ask my mom to make me noodle soup, and she would make me noodle soup. Though she always added stuff like eggs, (scrambled eggs not hard boiled) mashed potatoes, broccoli etc and what not. In the end that wasn't noodle soup anymore and that's what sucked
I still ate it and was grateful for it, it didn't taste bad but it wasn't what was asked for
it isn't not adding ingredients, because they are always needed, but the absolutely overkill of ingredients that changed the demand into something you've not wished for lmaoo. Maybe some people like overkill noodle soup mixture and I'm not taking that away from them
BUT I also wouldn't call it noodle soup anymore
I really miss the soup. I used to eat it whenever I wanted to feel comforted. I understand that I can always just make the soup and eat it how I like it, but I'll never be able to go back from eating the soup with its extra additions.
And was it bad when it was different? Was it terrible, did I refuse to eat it? No, I didn't. I ate my bowl and even though there wasn't anything terribly wrong with the soup, it made me sad because it was different.
somehow going back to the old soup also makes it taste different to be honest cause I was just having an explosion of too much in my mouth. having that boom just gone is weird
But you know the more think about, the more I'm just grateful for all those good memories have with the soup. One recipe that I disliked thankfully doesn't ruin my memories or future experiences with the soup, even if it and will never be the same again. But I agree with you. I'm scared to eat the soup again because what happens if it's not everything I remembered it to be? Or what if it is? I really do have to live in a world where my favorite soup got changed into a different soup entirely just because of a few overpowering ingredients.
Guys please you're going to make me cry 😭 This is so silly and fun and genuinely cathartic
we are all just collectively crying over soup now
Fr i thought it was a bit at first but then it genuinely began to move me
This is what I wanted from the soup btw. It's been days, I know, but I've finally placed it. This is what I was expecting from the new soup. To take me back to the first time I had the original soup, to invoke those same feelings in me.
