Instant soup

Instant soup

Instant soups are a kind of soup. They are produced on an industrial scale. Later they are treated in different ways to preserve them. Usually they are dried, canned, or treated by freezing.

Especially instant noodles are often prepared that way.

Packaged instant soups come in several varieties:
*A packet of dry soup stock (like the ramen image below). These do not contain water. They are prepared by adding water first, and then heating the product for a short time (usually 3-5 minutes) or by adding hot water directly to the dry soup mix.
*A tin (or can) containing cold soup. To prepare those need to only be heated (for 3-5 minutes usually). Some tinned soups come "condensed" -- these require additional water to bring them to their intended strength.
*Instant soup can also be preserved into a dry powder form such as unilever's cup-a-soup
*miso paste soup generally come in two forms, one as miso paste + preserved vegetable condiments, generally of the shiro(white) kind, the other as granulated miso.
