Soup

A noodle-filled soup brings a sense of nostalgia to almost anyone. This low-sodium version is packed with bright flavours from the aromatic vegetables and fresh herbs, but the secret weapon is the pistou-inspired herb sauce, which can be dolloped on the bowl, adding bursts of flavour to each spoonful.

Really, really good. Getting over a cold, and this is exactly what I needed. The chili flakes and garlic added some gorgeous heat. Definitely make the sauce, and I’d recommend adding a bouillon cube - the broth itself is pretty mellow.

So glad this hit the spot while you're recovering, Maja, and hope you feel better soon! Love the idea of adding a bouillon cube for extra depth 🤗


Carla Poot - March 1, 2025, 4:16 p.m.

It’s tasty, warm and the sauce brings all the flavours together. Great really! Next time I’ll add some roasted pumpkin seeds as crunchy tasty decoration

Just made this - really excellent. Added some ginger as I was in a ginger mood with the flu!

Soup is gorgeous but I didn’t like the sauce on the top
But I happy make the soup base again 🥰

genius as always lovely Sadia 💫


Luiza Alice - Feb. 16, 2025, 3:04 a.m.

Hey, I just saw it in tout ‘feel better ‘ collection and I really need to feel better now, feel like a soup, but don’t like cooked carrot nor celery at all, could you give some remplacement ideas ? Thanks a bunch!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Feb. 16, 2025, 8:30 p.m.

Hi Luiza, you can defintely leave the carrot and celery out, or consider bell peppers, zucchini, or leeks for an even stronger onion-y flavour. I hope you feel better soon 💛

Not to be dramatic but this is the best soup on the planet. Would give 100 stars.

Hehe we're hear for the drama 😜 thanks, Lara!

This was so delicious. I added in veggie bouillon and the sauce is just yum.


Maddie - Nov. 17, 2024, 6:45 p.m.

I must say this one is mediocre at best. It is lacking in flavour. The herbal sauce doesn't help with that. The soup needs acidity and some saltiness.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Nov. 17, 2024, 11:44 p.m.

Hey Maddie, we're sad to hear this as we've been loving this soup recipe lately! Adding more lemon juice or a splash could help brighten the flavours in case it helps, and adjusting the salt to taste might help too. We'll keep your suggestions in mind for next time 🫶

Maddie - Nov. 18, 2024, 11:10 a.m.

I adjusted the flavours while cooking this soup. I added boulion cube for saltiness and juice from ½ lemon for acidity.


Shayda Abidi - Nov. 8, 2024, 3:05 a.m.

Wow. New fave soup! It's sooo delicious and comforting.


Leslie - Nov. 2, 2024, 12:10 p.m.

Absolutely delicious! Another winner, especially topped with the herb sauce!


Kimberly Ramm - Oct. 10, 2024, 4:16 a.m.

So yummy! I love the herb sauce!!! My pickiest eater loved it too, and said they would definitely eat it again.


Kim Tee - Sept. 15, 2024, 8:43 a.m.

The soup is good as is - a real cockle-warmer - but the sauce takes things to another level. I'll want to put it on everything now!

PUL small logo PUL Team - Sept. 15, 2024, 6:05 p.m.

Aw so happy to hear, Kim, thank you 🤗


Sabrina M. - June 4, 2024, 7:17 p.m.

Me & my partner make this recipe pretty much every week. It’s simple and nutritious - bonus it’s super easy to alter while maintaining it’s deliciousness so it doubles as a “clean out fridge” dish.

The herb sauce brings it all together! We add lots of red pepper for an extra kick and indulge in using one of our more expensive olive oils to maintain a deep flavor in the sauce. Highly recommend ❤️

PUL small logo PUL Team - June 5, 2024, 12:48 a.m.

Yayy so happy to hear this, Sabrina, thank you for taking the time to share the review ☺️


Jennifer - May 5, 2024, 4:05 a.m.

I will be making this again! The herb sauce really does take it to the next level!


loh - April 17, 2024, 5:17 a.m.

Loved the herb sauce! Great compliment


Martunia - April 3, 2024, 11:53 a.m.

I added dried dill as I forgot to buy fresh one this morning, and I also had some broccoli wilting in the fridge, so I decided to add that as well. Otherwise, I stuck with the recipe, and I'm surprised how easy and quick it was to prepare. Everyone in the comments is praising the sauce, and I have to admit it's really yummy. I know the recipe was meant to be low in sodium, but it wasn't salty enough for me, so I added more salt to my plate.

PUL small logo PUL Team - April 3, 2024, 6:16 p.m.

Hey Martunia, it's great to hear you found ways to adapt the recipe! Happy cooking 🤗

LOVELY soup!


Inu - Jan. 15, 2024, 6:21 p.m.

Amazing soup. And make sure to NOT skip the herb sauce. It brings this meal to next level. I will certainly make again. Delicious. Spicy. Tangy. Herby.

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 15, 2024, 7:34 p.m.

Thanks for the glowing review, Inu, we're thrilled that the soup with herb sauce was enjoyed 😃


Liz - Jan. 5, 2024, 2:03 p.m.

This was sooo delicious! Didn't have any parsley & cilantro but the herb sauce was still amazing. I think this will become a staple

PUL small logo PUL Team - Jan. 5, 2024, 8:48 p.m.

Woohoo! So happy to hear, Liz, thanks for taking the time to share the review ☺️


erica bulow - Nov. 2, 2023, 11:31 p.m.

Made this without the herb garnish for my kids, I substituted leek for onion ND it was delicious


It’s a yes for me! - Aug. 9, 2023, 10:11 p.m.

So comforting and tasty. I feel like this soup will heal everything you’ve got. Highly recommend doing the herb sauce. It really brings something extra to this soup. You won’t even miss real chicken noodle soup.


Anila - Jan. 31, 2023, 1:18 a.m.

My fiancé made this for me while I’ve been under the weather. Helped me feel warm and healthy inside. Thank you!
