This Clear Spinach Soup recipe gives you a light and healthy soup without using spinach leaves. Instead, this is made with Spinach stalks which otherwise go into the bin. 

 It's a vegan recipe as neither milk nor cream is added and thus it gives fully the flavour and aroma of spinach.

Though Cream of Spinach Soup is very popular and sought for soup somehow we don't have a liking for it. Such soups are very heavy on the digestive system and curb hunger instead of acting as an appetizer. Anyway, everybody has their own preferences. But if you have a liking for clear soup then you are at the right place.

 

Healthy Spinach Soup Using Spinach Stalks

Spinach soup is just like my Lemon Coriander soup. This soup is also made from spinach stalks which normally go into the trash after plucking the juicy leaves.
These stalks are full of flavor and nutrients and therefore soup made from these stalks is not only very light but also possesses the nutrients of stalks.

 

How To Make 

• After plucking the leaves, just remove the root portion and wash thoroughly the stalks.
• Boil these stalks with little water. Grind it, pass through a strainer and that's it. No need of adding any thickening agents like cornflour or gram flour.
  Boil this soup with ginger and whole spices like bay leaf, cinnamon, and black cardamom.
• It tastes just superb. A Dash of lemon juice at the time of serving enhances the taste a lot.
• Once you make this soup, I am sure you will never ever waste the spinach stalks.
• Again, no fixed quantity of ingredients. If the stalks are less you may add a tomato or carrot while boiling.
