Soup is a primarily liquid food, generally served warm or hot – though it is sometimes served chilled – made by cooking or otherwise combining meat or vegetables with stock, milk, or water. According to The Oxford Companion to Food, soup is the main generic term for liquid savoury dishes; others include broth, bisque, consommé, potage and many more.
“Results from the consumer study demonstrated significant effects of beer type on liking. Relative-to-ideal ratings for balance demonstrated that dominance of either of the components significantly reduced liking and harmony, while dominance of soup significantly reduced perceived complexity. Results also demonstrated that perceived sensory complexity was highly correlated with liking of pairings when perceived sensory harmony also was rated as high.”
