What spices will ruin any soup: never add them

Homemade soups are the best dish for lunch and even dinner. It is always best to make them with seasonal vegetables and herbs. It is also important to add spices to soups, which will give the dish an original taste and flavor. But you need to remember that some spices are not intended for first courses and can even spoil the taste of any soup.

The FoodOboz editorial team shares culinary tips and a list of 2 spices that should not be added to soups to avoid spoiling their taste and flavor.

Mint

According to culinary experts, mint is only suitable for desserts, drinks, and summer salads. But the specific menthol flavor will spoil soups, giving them unnecessary bitterness.

Lavender

It is ideal for making tea, some desserts, and ice cream, but lavender is not suitable for soups and will even spoil the taste of the dish, as it has a rich aroma that can muffle the aromas and flavors of the main ingredients in the soup.

Culinary experts advise adding salt, ground black pepper, paprika, as well as celery root, onions, and garlic to soups.
