Soup dishes can be considered as comfort food to cook at home. Soup can be filled with various ingredients, such as vegetables, chicken, beef, and many more. Soup dishes are simply served with rice to make them more filling.
You can also make soup seasoning to stock in the kitchen. So, if you already have a stock of soup seasoning at home, automatically the duration of cooking the soup dish will be much shorter. One of the recipes was shared by a YouTube account user Dapur Cantik Channel.
The mothers on the YouTube account Dapur Cantik Channel also have a trick for making soup seasoning so that the results are tasty and last a long time when stored. Let's take a peek at the trick.

Then, add 1 onion and 3 stalks of sliced leeks. Stir again. The onions and leeks will add a savory taste and fragrant aroma to your homemade soup seasoning. "Saute until these two ingredients (onions and leeks) are wilted," said the owner of the YouTube account Dapur Cantik Channel, quoted by BrilioFood on Monday (8/26). When the onions and leeks are wilted, add 1.5 pieces of nutmeg, 1 tbsp of salt, 2 tsp of granulated sugar, 1 tbsp of mushroom stock, and 2 tsp of ground pepper. Stir again until the spices are evenly mixed.

Continue cooking the soup seasoning while stirring until it smells good and the seasoning looks separate from the cooking oil. If it is like that, it means that the soup seasoning is completely cooked and will not go stale quickly when stored later. Turn off the stove and transfer the seasoning to a container. The owner of the YouTube account Dapur Cantik Channel explained that one soup seasoning recipe that he shared can be used with 3 liters of water or soup stock. How, the results can be a lot, right? You can adjust the measurements for each cooking later according to your needs. If you want to store it, this soup seasoning can be left at room temperature until cool, then transfer it to a container with an airtight lid. The soup seasoning can be stored directly in the refrigerator.
