Strained Vegetable Soup is made by simmering vegetables until tender, blending or mashing them with some cooking liquid, then passing the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Add the liquid gradually so you can control how thin the soup becomes.
Carrots, potatoes, onions, and zucchini are common in Strained Vegetable Soup, but the vegetables can vary with the season. Use potato or carrot to give the soup body, and balance stronger vegetables such as broccoli with milder ones.
Strained Vegetable Soup is strained to remove skins, seeds, and fibrous pieces, leaving a smooth, uniform texture. This makes it different from an ordinary blended vegetable soup, which usually keeps the vegetable pulp in the bowl.
Yes, you can make Strained Vegetable Soup without a blender. Cook the vegetables until very soft, mash them thoroughly, then press the mixture through a fine sieve with the back of a spoon; loosen it with cooking liquid if needed.
Yes, straining Strained Vegetable Soup removes some fiber because much of the pulp stays in the sieve. The amount depends on how finely you strain it; for more fiber, blend the vegetables without straining or stir some pulp back in.
Potato or cooked white beans can make Strained Vegetable Soup creamy without cream. Blend them with the cooked vegetables before straining; a little olive oil stirred in at the end also gives the soup a smoother, fuller mouthfeel.
Crusty bread, a grilled cheese sandwich, or a simple salad pairs well with Strained Vegetable Soup. For a more substantial meal, serve it alongside a grain or a protein-rich main dish rather than relying on the soup alone.
Strained Vegetable Soup generally keeps for 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it promptly after cooking, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat until it is steaming hot.
Yes, Strained Vegetable Soup freezes well in airtight, portion-sized containers. Cool it before freezing and thaw it in the refrigerator; soups containing potato may separate or turn slightly grainy, so stir thoroughly while reheating.
Yes, Strained Vegetable Soup can be served cold, although it is more commonly eaten hot. Chill it promptly after cooking, then taste and adjust the seasoning before serving, since cold temperatures can mute the soup’s flavors.

Strained Vegetable Soup is made by cooking vegetables in water or vegetable stock until tender, then passing them through a sieve for a smooth, even texture. It has no single regional origin: recipes vary with the vegetables available and local cooking habits. Unlike a chunky vegetable soup, it is served without the larger pieces.
It works as a light starter or simple meal, often served warm with bread; the seasoning and thickness vary from one kitchen to another. The vegetables give it a mild, savoury flavour, and the strained texture makes it easy to eat. It is low in calories, at 28 per 100 g. Pair it with whole-grain bread for a more filling meal, or keep the serving light and let the vegetables’ flavour come through.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
