Refrigerate cooked stews and soups overnight before serving.
The fat will rise to the top and you can skim it off before
heating and serving.
In a hurry to skim the fat from the soup? An ice cube
floated in the soup will help to congeal the fat and make
it easier to remove.
A leaf of lettuce dropped in a pot of soup absorb the
grease from the top.
Freeze the liquids from canned mushrooms or vegetables;
use it in soups or stews later.
To remove excessive salt from soup, drop in a sliced raw potato.
To thicken your soup, take some of the cooked vegetables out
of the soup and puree in the blender. Then return to the
original soup mixture.
