Our Best Gluten-Free Soup Recipes, At A Glance:
Tips FOr Making GLuten-Free Soup:
- Double-Check Your Ingredients. Gluten can hide in sneaky places like broth, bouillon, and seasonings, so be sure that each ingredient you choose is gluten-free. This definitely includes chicken broth and vegetable broth, but it also goes for add-ins like soy sauce, Worcestershire, bouillon cubes, flavoring packets, and more.
- Choose Gluten-Free Pasta & Noodles. Then, make sure you’re using gluten-free pasta or noodles for noodle soup recipes. We like Jovial brown rice pasta for making soup.
- Use Gluten-Free Thickeners When Needed. Many soup recipes (especially creamy soups), use roux or flour to thicken the texture. Use gluten-free flour or cornstarch for thickening soup rather than white flour or wheat flour to keep your soup recipe gluten-free.
- Dress It Up! Add an extra boost of flavor to soup recipes by finishing them with fresh herbs, a squeeze of something acidic (lemon juice or vinegar), a sprinkle of spice (like cinnamon, chili powder, red pepper flakes or black pepper) or a drizzle of olive oil.
