A lot of these recipes sound so yummy until I read that they have an onion in them. Can I leave the onion out or substitute? For the broccoli and asparagus soup – should I fry them with the garlic (if I leave the onion out) and for how long? Sorry for all the questions, I am clueless when I have to alter a recipe plus I have never made soup before, but you have to start somewhere, right?
Hi Hanna!
Sure, you can leave out the onion, but the soup will probably be quite a bit milder. Garlic would be a great substitute. Is it the texture you don’t like about onion?
Don’t be shy with modifying recipes; all recipes can be improved upon (depending on personal taste ofcourse!).
