Question by behindthemask: Premix soup recipes (just add water)?
I am trying to google a specific type of recipe but having trouble with the terminology. Does anyone know what the term is for the premixed soups you can buy where you just add water? My husband’s grandmother used to make those at home and give them out for Christmas. She used to have all kinds of stuff: brownie mix, cake mix, stew, soups… the list goes on. I would like to continue that tradition but having trouble finding recipes.
Thanks!!

Was it something wet or dry?
If it was wet – it was a homemade condensed soup. You can freeze it or put it up in canning jars.
If it was dry – it was soup mix. There are many recipes for this to give as gifts. It is basically dry soup ingredients like beans, barley, dried corn, etc – plus seasonings in a jar with a little paper explaining how to make it.
Here are some examples to get you started. Searching for “homemade condensed soup”

I have a bunch in my group you need to look for things like gifts in a jar.
Colorful Soup Mix in a Jar
1 cube beef bouillon
1/4 cup dried minced onion
1/2 cup dried split peas
1/2 cup uncooked twist macaroni
1/4 cup barley
1/2 cup dry lentils
1/3 cup long-grain white rice
1 cup uncooked tri-color spiral pasta
Use a canning funnel or any funnel that has about a 2-inch neck. This will make it easier to fill the jars with the ingredients. Be sure to use a wide-mouth, 1-quart canning jar.
Layer ingredients in the order given: bouillon, onion flakes, split peas, small shape pasta, barley, lentils, rice, and enough tricolor spiral pasta to fill jar.

In large kettle, brown 1 pound ground beef or stew beef cut into bite-size pieces in a little olive oil. Remove tricolor pasta from top of jar and reserve. Add the rest of the jar contents to the kettle with 12 cups water. Let come to a boil and simmer 45 minutes.
