Cooked this just now: -Boiled water. Added 2 small chopped onions, a sliced leek and 1 large and 1 small carrot. -Let this do its thing for a bit. Chopped tomatoes, chucked in. -Let that do its thing, added some chopped green beans. Added a splash of white wine. -Shortly after went in some cavolo nero kale, then some garlic. Let this cook for ~10 mins. -Let this boil, salted well with a dash of pepper and drizzled oil over the serving. -Served with some bread and light spread. Wowza. Genuinely amazing. "Under-engineering" food is the way forward for me now.
@@TBroomey when I do this I get around 6-8 portions. But I also buy giant GMO produce. If you go with organic, you may get slightly fewer portions unless you double up on some items.
I feel like "under-engineering" is just how most people used to cook before social media became a thing and everyone suddenly decided they need to show off.
“When you’re cooking for yourself there are no extra points for degree of difficulty” Probably the best piece of advice for young cooks I have ever heard
I realise I'm more than a year late for the video and 3 months late for this comment, but it applies to cooking for other people, too. Following a recipe you couldn't possibly have come up with yourself is something anyone with enough time can do. It's like instructions on flat-packed furniture. Turning a bunch of raw, random items into a nice meal? That impresses me when someone does it for me.
@@bered4894 I mean I guess the question is whether it's worth it to you. Is spending 2 hours cooking a meal only you will eat worth it? Maybe! If you really loved it, or if you enjoyed the process. But I think a lot of people put in unnecessary effort cooking that brings them no joy.
I have watched this video like 10 times and today I just did just what he says, I took some stuff I had in my nearly empty kitchen and boiled it. honestly was one of the best-tasting things I've made and I do cook a lot and would say I'm a decent home cook
Made this soup yesterday (meaning I threw a bunch of veggies and vinegar in a pot and boiled them) and I gotta say my veggie intake is about to increase 4000%
As a subscriber for about six months now and going through Adam’s entire back catalogue, this episode is my favourite Ragusea video. I know some people may have caught on sooner but it’s amazing how many times he got me with the “Now you must concasse a tomato…” and me actually thinking “Okay he’s really gonna get technical here now…” and then “aaaannnndddd NO! Just put it in the water and BOIL IT!” Tried the recipe, it was delicious. Hats off to Adam and his lesson in simplicity being the best recipe. Vinegar leg is on the right.

Whether it’s saving time by using fewer dishes or offering ideas for ingredient replacements to account for different diets, Adam conveys the essence of home cooking: using what you have on hand to make something delicious, impressing guests when necessary, putting in a marginally more effort for recipes that need it, and learning about the science behind food that can improve your cooking. This kind of “lazy” but delicious dish video complements well his more meticulous recipes, and it’s the balance of ideas that I love about this channel.
I made a variant of this soup, and it was amazing. The olive oil garnish before serving is just divine.And the energy in this video is hilarious. I love the open-endedness of your recipe videos, and all of them give me a few new techniques!
All "NO!!!" jokes aside, this soup is absolutely delicious. I have been trying to lose weight for a while, and it is so nice to have a low calorie meal that actually leaves you full and not wanting more! I modified it a little bit to my liking by adding some celery with the carrots and onions, and adding some red pepper flakes around the same time I added the garlic. It gave it a nice kick, definitely recommend for any spice lovers out there!
I agree. I was a bit skeptical, but decided to give it a try and boil up potatoes, carrots, onion, celery, parsley stems and season at the end with salt, black pepper, parsley leaves, and olive oil. It is surprising how delicious, nutritious, and satisfying this simple soup is.
Another easy one to pick up is egg drop soup, with a little regular green cabbage if you want a little extra bulk. Frozen peas as a mix in is great for that, too
Love this recipe. I cut the tomatoes kinda small because the skins can get tough. Small pieces disappear better. Also, for summer supper I blend it down to a pleasing consistency and eat it cold, sometimes adding a dollop of sour cream and a shake of cayenne.
I was really surprised how good this "recipe" turned out. A bonus that I didn't consider is that I used it as a cooking lesson for my kid. Everything was easy to manage for a kid, and each step was a moment where I could ask "What do you think is missing? Do you think it needs to cook longer? Do you think it's overcooked?" I put out a lot of seasoning ingredients at the dinner table, and let everyone adjust their bowls to what they liked. It was a great way to experiment with flavor in a low pressure, safe way. Thanks Adam.
This was really good and weaned me away from my beloved chicken stock for once. I used cilantro instead of basil since it's what I had, and it brought Thai and Vietnamese flavors to mind (I used both white wine and a tbsp of white wine vinegar with savoy cabbage instead of kale). I could see a few grilled shrimp in each bowl at the end making it a nice soup to serve others. And some french bread and butter on the side for when not dodging the carbs. And of course a glass of that wine used in the soup! I'm late to the party, but thanks for sharing!
I love this recipe, and one thing I found that very easily ups the umami/salt is a teaspoon (or more) of vegemite. I'm an American down under who has learned how to use this stuff, and it is great as a meat replacement in broths.
I really appreciate these videos. I hate how complex people make things seem which just puts folk off of cooking when it doesn't need to be that esoteric
Cal Logtenberg dumbass that was a controlled fire for agriculture reasons. It was not old growth it was literally just for setting up new plant growth.
My veggie soup of choice is green onions, onions, broccoli, corn, spicy peppers (whatever I have sitting around, today was jalapenos but the first time I made it was thai chilis), and kale or spinach, whatever I have on hand.
I'm a soon-to-be college student who's trying to learn some simple, healthy recipes before I move out. Adam, I have to thank you-your channel has taught me so much and this video is no exception. I made this soup tonight and it turned out amazing. I didn't have any frozen peas, but I'd love to try them next time. I did take someone else's suggestion and add some tomato paste to the broth-it's a great way to boost flavor, especially if you add a bit too much water like I did!
This video is probably your simplest recipe of all... and I honestly found it inspiring. I stopped enjoying cooking after breaking up with my long-term partner at the start of 2022, and this was the first recipe I could actually convince myself to try again. And I really enjoy just... playing with it. I've settled on a slightly more complex variant that you actually suggest. I lightly saute onion, carrot, and celery (all diced) in olive oil until the onions are translucent, throw in a bunch of sliced mushrooms (and more oil), and keep frying until the mushrooms are lightly cooked. Deglaze with white balsamic vinegar (oh man the fumes, but it's totally worth it), fill with water, bring to boil, add a couple of medium-sized flavorful tomatoes, a clove of garlic, and a can of beans, simmer until you feel like eating it. Throw in frozen peas right at the end. Instead of salt (For an extra treat, I'll sub some of the water for mushroom liquor from dried shiitakes I have soaking in the fridge. That stuff is amazing.)
@@prwdmex I have quite the opposite feel. That teenagers put too much weight on what other people think, while mostly... They don't notice or don't care.
I'm eating this right now and it's so good! I added mushrooms and used red cabbage as my brassica. I also skipped the olive oil because i don't like olive oil. The white wine is really, really good with the honest vegetable flavor.
This make me think of how Florentine tomato soup discards the skin and insides of tomatoes but brags about using stale bread and keeping it from going to waste
The skins have tons of lectins, which damage your body's ability to absorb nutrients (just while your eating them, not permanently). Lots of cultures came to figure this out, at least the cause and effect, and peel tomato skins. Italy in particular
MyUsernameHere that’s essential to the soup. If you don’t have that then to u just have hot vegetable water that tastes disgusting. Bonus points if it’s in an Adam Ragusa impression, as it adds to the umami flavor
This might be one of my favorite videos from this channel and one of my favorite cooking videos overall. Not only it shows that cooking, just like life, can be much more practical and straightforward than most people realize, it taught me how to make a delicious veggie soup too. I've made this soup quite a few times times now with some other good stuff like zucchini and spinach, and I also like to use two tomatoes just because I love how they taste (and I tend to make bigger pots too). My girlfriend, who always preferred creamy soups with the ingredients blended together precisely because she's not a big fan of thin brothy soups, absolutely loved it, and mentioned how savory and rich the broth tasted.
It reminded me of how to blanche a peach in order to get the skin off. If you do peach jam/preserves/pies, you get to be very practiced at the little trick.
Hi Mr.Adam, I've cooked this soup around a 100 times during these 5 years, and I always open this video during cooking. This is my favorite recipe. NNNNNNNOOOOOOO!!! Thank you!
PetrosRZ actually, no? Calories are essential, but they don’t have to come from carbs, and while there are essential proteins and fats there are no essential carbs. In fact studies of pre-agriculture hunter gatherer societies would suggest that humans are intended to eat a higher proportion of nuts, greens, and otherwise more protein and fat rich sources of nutrition than we do now. Agriculture replaced the varied diet of hunter gatherers with a preponderance of staple carbs (rice, wheat, potatoes, etc) and caused not only malnutrition but for the first time dental hygiene issues (Hunter gatherers almost never get cavities!). Our diets are probably just based on carbs like rice because they’ve been cheap and easy to grow at scale since agriculture was invented, not because it best meets our nutritional needs.
@@aidanwarren4980 carbs are important. Complex hydrocarbons are an extremely good battery (you could say). A calorie is simply a term of energy. Because a food has this specific amount doesn't mean it's necesseraly better than one that has more of it. Calories are useless by them selves in food. Because it doesnt take into consideration that some foods burst immediately with energy and some others like rice and oats are complex they don't burst with energy but keep the sugar stream in the blood steady for longer. But that doesn't mean that your body doesn't only need them. The body needs a little bit of everything and yes even carbs.
PetrosRZ I’m aware that calories don’t account for glycemic index, but regardless, it is perfectly possible to survive without carbs. The Inuit traditionally subsisted purely on animals and, while they had to eat every part to get the required vitamins and minerals, they got along just fine without any starches. We should also acknowledge that while rice might be better than, say, white bread, it is still relatively high on the glycemic index. Also, calories from protein and fat don’t trigger that increased blood sugar and the insulin response in the same way. I’m not advocating for a no-carb diet, I just mean to point out that a diet centered on carbs is probably not ideal nutritionally and the idea that it is may be a result of the historical development of agriculture (not to mention the more recent controversies over sugar-industry funded research that downplayed the negative health effects of carbs)

If you don't mind the color, I recommend red beets. They're tough enough to still have some bite after cooking and they have a unique flavor that pairs really well with carrots and other root vegetables. Other favorites include spinach, leeks, and celery root.
don't know if you'd answer lol, but I have 2 cans of beets that have been ominously sitting in the back of my pantry for forever, can I use those do you think?
@@a-bird-lover I always use fresh, but canned is probably fine for a soup. They've likely been pre-cooked as they were canned, though, so be careful not to overcook them.
Ingredients: -water (looks to be about 4-6 cups) -heat -time -1 Onion/Shallot -1 Carrot -1 tomato -White wine (looked like ~1/4c - 1c); OR white balsamic vinegar (a splash at the end; ~1tbsp) -Cabbage, any brassica (a couple stalks/leaves) -1 clove garlic ~1/3 cup frozen peas Bring 4-6 cups water to a boil. Chop an onion, then peel and chop a carrot. Add to the water. Chop up tomato into random pieces and add to water. Add wine if desired, boil for around 20 minutes until hard vegetables have softened. Chop up cabbage and throw it into soup. Cook for a couple minutes then kill the heat. Add in fresh garlic and frozen peas. Season (with salt) to taste. Add in balsamic vinegar if desired. Optionally, tear in fresh basil/herbs and a small splash of olive oil.
Made this at least 10 times since originally seeing this video (with minor adaptations). Every time I get asked for the recipe, and every time I text a link to this video. The broth is from another planet, even though I just made it (most recently) this morning with ingredients I snagged from the local Farmers Market yesterday. I add protein after everyone has had 2 bowls - just for me. Well done sir!
this is one of my favorite videos and also a great example why adam, of all the food youtubers i follow, is the only person who will have actual comments under his videos of people who ACTUALLY MADE THE RECIPE. ive made so many of his recipes because theyre simple, delicious, and realistically achievable. not knocking other youtubers, some do it for entertainment purposes but it really is great to have a some realistic and interesting new recipes to try.
@@bocahdongo7769 not to spit on joshua weissman but i REALLY dont like his videos where he's cooking something and then shows his ass the next like pls dont
I will say, I’m new to this channel and I like how he’s not pretentious in his cooking. I love good food and learning how to cook but sometimes I just really don’t care for the UA-camr cooks and “the RIGHT way” to cut, dice, or cook something for 2 hours. I just want a meal. It may not be the best meal but damn, just show me how to cook vegetable soup without making me feel like I’m some talentless schmuck who can only cook good food if I cook it for 3 hours using a very specific technique. >.
But it takes energy and time, which doesn't do all good to your ingredients. And purely practical, it's easier to freeze a small batch of more concentrated soup and add water then use a, larger container.
@@shotgun6X ? jokes are about the subversion of expectations, angle changes etc *soup* "replies" , *soup* laughed its not from a point of person doing things anyway 🤷
I actually make a veggie stock out of stored veggie scraps. The (cleaned) stumps of celery, carrots, onions, the hard core of tomatoes, ect. Any part of a veggie that would normally get thrown out. Not the world's greatest stock, but decreases my food waste :)
This is one of the cooking tutorials I have watched that changed how I make a thing I frequently make for the better. Especially throwing in garlic and frozen veg right near the end and the final drizzle of oil.
Love the comments about avoiding acidity in soup. I often add lemon juice to my soups to increase acidity. Otherwise the soup will lack bright flavor. My other go tos for finishing off soup are sake, fish soy, white pepper and Chinese cooking wine.
Love this food video. First, it's brief. Second, it's hilarious. Third, "when you're cooking for yourself there's no extra points for degree of difficulty."
My housemate Saves up excess onion peels, garlic skins, bits and pieces of vegetables (things that you would normally cut off and toss, but are perfectly edible) and when we've amassed enough (usually a day or two, a lot of home cooking on the farm) you boil all of them together for a few hours and it makes the best vegetable stock I've ever had.
When I had freezer space, I did that exact same thing. I remember making huge batches of stock and having the flat smell amazing for a short while after
Made it with a couple small adjustments: used a bit of spicy Hungarian paprika paste I accidentally bought three days ago thinking it's tomato paste, some actual tomato paste, browned the onions for a bit, added celery, leak, parsnip and some red skinned potatoes I had lying around, used Brussels Sprouts instead of regular cabbage and added a bit of raw baby spinach and a splash of heavy cream to round off the flavors (it was a bit too spicy than what I was going for so a bit of dairy helped with that) into the bowl. Also added a good bit of fresh herbs like Lovage, Sage, Savory, Tarragon, Rosemary, Thyme, Mint that I have in kitchen and minced half a thumb worth of ginger. It's stupid how easy it was to make that pot of soup and how absolutely DELICIOUS it is! I ate two bowls of it in a row and so did my Dad. The only immediate side effects I observed is that literally an hour after finishing I started getting gasses and bc my bowels aren't used to eating so much vegetables in one go I have this uncomfortable feeling in my gut, which is probably my bowels getting the biggest surprise workout of past couple months...

I made this soup tonight and it turned out amazing. I didn't have any frozen peas, but I'd love to try them next time. I did take someone else's suggestion and add some tomato paste to the broth-it's a great way to boost flavor, especially if you add a bit too much water like I did!
I made this recipe, I would recommend reducing the salt and adding soy sauce for more flavor
I'm going to try that next time. I just made it with some Cajun seasoning, and it was pretty good!

This video is probably your simplest recipe of all... and I honestly found it inspiring. I stopped enjoying cooking after breaking up with my long-term partner at the start of 2022, and this was the first recipe I could actually convince myself to try again. And I really enjoy just... playing with it.
I've settled on a slightly more complex variant that you actually suggest. I lightly saute onion, carrot, and celery (all diced) in olive oil until the onions are translucent, throw in a bunch of sliced mushrooms (and more oil), and keep frying until the mushrooms are lightly cooked. Deglaze with white balsamic vinegar (oh man the fumes, but it's totally worth it), fill with water, bring to boil, add a couple of medium-sized flavorful tomatoes, a clove of garlic, and a can of beans, simmer until you feel like eating it. Throw in frozen peas right at the end. Instead of salt
(For an extra treat, I'll sub some of the water for mushroom liquor from dried shiitakes I have soaking in the fridge. That stuff is amazing.)

I'm eating this right now and it's so good! I added mushrooms and used red cabbage as my brassica. I also skipped the olive oil because i don't like olive oil. The white wine is really, really good with the honest vegetable flavor.
This make me think of how Florentine tomato soup discards the skin and insides of tomatoes but brags about using stale bread and keeping it from going to waste
Good point.
The skins have tons of lectins, which damage your body's ability to absorb nutrients (just while your eating them, not permanently).
Lots of cultures came to figure this out, at least the cause and effect, and peel tomato skins. Italy in particular

It won't be unless you undersalt it or add way too much water.

This might be one of my favorite videos from this channel and one of my favorite cooking videos overall. Not only it shows that cooking, just like life, can be much more practical and straightforward than most people realize, it taught me how to make a delicious veggie soup too.
I've made this soup quite a few times times now with some other good stuff like zucchini and spinach, and I also like to use two tomatoes just because I love how they taste (and I tend to make bigger pots too). My girlfriend, who always preferred creamy soups with the ingredients blended together precisely because she's not a big fan of thin brothy soups, absolutely loved it, and mentioned how savory and rich the broth tasted.
I love how he's mocking us about cancassay ing a tomato yet is probably also teaching hundreds how to do that
to be fair, sometimes you might want to do that
when you're not making a low-effort soup, you might want to do that

NO NOT THE CARBS
YOU FOOL
@@gaigedude carbs are a required nutrition. Rice is one of the best carbs you can eat.
PetrosRZ actually, no? Calories are essential, but they don’t have to come from carbs, and while there are essential proteins and fats there are no essential carbs. In fact studies of pre-agriculture hunter gatherer societies would suggest that humans are intended to eat a higher proportion of nuts, greens, and otherwise more protein and fat rich sources of nutrition than we do now. Agriculture replaced the varied diet of hunter gatherers with a preponderance of staple carbs (rice, wheat, potatoes, etc) and caused not only malnutrition but for the first time dental hygiene issues (Hunter gatherers almost never get cavities!). Our diets are probably just based on carbs like rice because they’ve been cheap and easy to grow at scale since agriculture was invented, not because it best meets our nutritional needs.
@@aidanwarren4980 carbs are important. Complex hydrocarbons are an extremely good battery (you could say). A calorie is simply a term of energy. Because a food has this specific amount doesn't mean it's necesseraly better than one that has more of it. Calories are useless by them selves in food. Because it doesnt take into consideration that some foods burst immediately with energy and some others like rice and oats are complex they don't burst with energy but keep the sugar stream in the blood steady for longer. But that doesn't mean that your body doesn't only need them. The body needs a little bit of everything and yes even carbs.
PetrosRZ I’m aware that calories don’t account for glycemic index, but regardless, it is perfectly possible to survive without carbs. The Inuit traditionally subsisted purely on animals and, while they had to eat every part to get the required vitamins and minerals, they got along just fine without any starches. We should also acknowledge that while rice might be better than, say, white bread, it is still relatively high on the glycemic index. Also, calories from protein and fat don’t trigger that increased blood sugar and the insulin response in the same way. I’m not advocating for a no-carb diet, I just mean to point out that a diet centered on carbs is probably not ideal nutritionally and the idea that it is may be a result of the historical development of agriculture (not to mention the more recent controversies over sugar-industry funded research that downplayed the negative health effects of carbs)

If you don't mind the color, I recommend red beets. They're tough enough to still have some bite after cooking and they have a unique flavor that pairs really well with carrots and other root vegetables. Other favorites include spinach, leeks, and celery root.
don't know if you'd answer lol, but I have 2 cans of beets that have been ominously sitting in the back of my pantry for forever, can I use those do you think?
@@a-bird-lover I always use fresh, but canned is probably fine for a soup.
They've likely been pre-cooked as they were canned, though, so be careful not to overcook them.

good comment
Ingredients:
-water (looks to be about 4-6 cups)
-heat
-time
-1 Onion/Shallot
-1 Carrot
-1 tomato
-White wine (looked like ~1/4c - 1c); OR white balsamic vinegar (a splash at the end; ~1tbsp)
-Cabbage, any brassica (a couple stalks/leaves)
-1 clove garlic
~1/3 cup frozen peas
Bring 4-6 cups water to a boil. Chop an onion, then peel and chop a carrot. Add to the water. Chop up tomato into random pieces and add to water. Add wine if desired, boil for around 20 minutes until hard vegetables have softened. Chop up cabbage and throw it into soup. Cook for a couple minutes then kill the heat. Add in fresh garlic and frozen peas. Season (with salt) to taste. Add in balsamic vinegar if desired. Optionally, tear in fresh basil/herbs and a small splash of olive oil.
Why peel the carrot?
@@ThreadBomb carrot skins can be kinda bitter.

The broth is from another planet, even though I just made it (most recently) this morning with ingredients I snagged from the local Farmers Market yesterday. I add protein after everyone has had 2 bowls - just for me. Well done sir!
this is one of my favorite videos and also a great example why adam, of all the food youtubers i follow, is the only person who will have actual comments under his videos of people who ACTUALLY MADE THE RECIPE. ive made so many of his recipes because theyre simple, delicious, and realistically achievable. not knocking other youtubers, some do it for entertainment purposes but it really is great to have a some realistic and interesting new recipes to try.

I actually make a veggie stock out of stored veggie scraps. The (cleaned) stumps of celery, carrots, onions, the hard core of tomatoes, ect. Any part of a veggie that would normally get thrown out. Not the world's greatest stock, but decreases my food waste :)
All that white wine got to him
Damn, the YTP's got so much material from this
This is one of the cooking tutorials I have watched that changed how I make a thing I frequently make for the better. Especially throwing in garlic and frozen veg right near the end and the final drizzle of oil.
Love the comments about avoiding acidity in soup. I often add lemon juice to my soups to increase acidity. Otherwise the soup will lack bright flavor. My other go tos for finishing off soup are sake, fish soy, white pepper and Chinese cooking wine.
Do you add the lemon juice right at the end to the entire pot or do you add them to only the bowl you are about to eat?
Love this food video. First, it's brief. Second, it's hilarious. Third, "when you're cooking for yourself there's no extra points for degree of difficulty."
It's also pretty damn tasty
That olive oil at the end brought the whole thing up so much visually, I realized I hadn't had lunch yet today and must now go eat something.
My housemate Saves up excess onion peels, garlic skins, bits and pieces of vegetables (things that you would normally cut off and toss, but are perfectly edible) and when we've amassed enough (usually a day or two, a lot of home cooking on the farm) you boil all of them together for a few hours and it makes the best vegetable stock I've ever had.
Did that once. It was a horrible. Bitter. Nasty thing. Never again.
When I had freezer space, I did that exact same thing. I remember making huge batches of stock and having the flat smell amazing for a short while after
@@AnHeC You probably included carrot roots or too much onion
@@Barchueetadonai aren't carrot roots just... carrots??
Emp Yeah but it's a bit dry and bitter
Made it with a couple small adjustments: used a bit of spicy Hungarian paprika paste I accidentally bought three days ago thinking it's tomato paste, some actual tomato paste, browned the onions for a bit, added celery, leak, parsnip and some red skinned potatoes I had lying around, used Brussels Sprouts instead of regular cabbage and added a bit of raw baby spinach and a splash of heavy cream to round off the flavors (it was a bit too spicy than what I was going for so a bit of dairy helped with that) into the bowl.
Also added a good bit of fresh herbs like Lovage, Sage, Savory, Tarragon, Rosemary, Thyme, Mint that I have in kitchen and minced half a thumb worth of ginger.
It's stupid how easy it was to make that pot of soup and how absolutely DELICIOUS it is! I ate two bowls of it in a row and so did my Dad.
The only immediate side effects I observed is that literally an hour after finishing I started getting gasses and bc my bowels aren't used to eating so much vegetables in one go I have this uncomfortable feeling in my gut, which is probably my bowels getting the biggest surprise workout of past couple months...
I think you could reduce the amount of brassicas and perhaps the amount of garlic at the end to avoid gas if you have a sensitive gut
Do you grow your own herbs? Is that what you mean by having them in your kitchen ?
