Description

Condensed beef and vegetable soup is a food preparation in the form of a paste or concentrate that combines beef broth with a mix of selected vegetables, typically carrots, celery, onion, and sometimes potatoes or peas. This soup is presented in a condensed form to facilitate storage and preparation, allowing the cook to add water or another liquid to obtain a complete and nutritious soup in minutes.

Its origin dates back to the American and European food industry in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when condensation and canning preservation methods were developed to facilitate quick access to prepared foods, especially during wartime or in regions with less access to fresh produce.

From a nutritional point of view, condensed beef and vegetable soup is a practical source of protein, vitamins, and minerals provided by the meat and vegetables. Its sodium content may be high due to the concentration, so moderate consumption or proper dilution is recommended. It is ideal for quick recipes, as a base for stews, or as a complement in homemade preparations.

In Hispanic America, this ingredient may have different names or synonyms, such as "concentrated beef broth with vegetables", "canned beef soup with vegetables", or simply "condensed beef soup". In some countries, it is also known as "concentrated cream of beef with vegetables", especially when it has a creamier texture.
