Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 cup All-purpose flour
  • 2 cup Milk powder
  • 2 tablespoon Onion flakes
  • 2 tablespoon Garlic granules
  • ¼ cup Chicken broth powder
  • 1 tablespoon Dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Combine all the ingredients together in an airtight glass jar and store it in a cool and dark place.
  • To prepare one portion, whisk 2 tablespoons of dry soup mix with 1 cup of cool water in a saucepan until smooth.
  • Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Use fine milk powder for the smoothest texture. Whole milk powder will give the soup a richer, creamier consistency, while skimmed milk powder works for a lighter version.
  • Make sure all the ingredients and utensils are completely dry before preparing the mix to prevent clumping during storage.
  • Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly so the flour, milk powder, herbs, and seasonings are evenly distributed.
  • To prepare one serving, whisk 2 tablespoons of the dry soup mix into 1 cup of cold water. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring continuously until smooth, thickened, and fully cooked.
  • Add a little extra water or milk if the soup becomes too thick, or use slightly less liquid for a thicker consistency.
  • Adjust the salt according to the saltiness of your chicken broth powder, as some brands are already heavily seasoned.
  • Replace the chicken broth powder with vegetable or mushroom stock powder for a vegetarian version.
  • Add dehydrated vegetables such as carrots, peas, corn, or mushrooms to the dry mix for extra flavor and texture.
  • Stir in cooked shredded chicken, sautéed mushrooms, or cooked vegetables when preparing the soup for a heartier meal.
  • Add a pinch of black pepper, paprika, or red pepper flakes for extra flavor.
  • Store the dry mix in a clean, airtight container in a cool, dry, dark place, following the shortest storage period recommended for the individual ingredients.
  • Use a clean, dry spoon each time you scoop out the mix to prevent moisture from getting into the container.
