For a richer flavor, try using beef broth instead of water. Add a bay leaf or a sprig of thyme during simmering for extra depth of flavor. Remove before serving. Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to your liking. This soup is even better the next day after the flavors have had a chance to meld. To freeze, let the soup cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers or bags. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
