When serving soup, it’s important to consider how temperature affects taste. Hot soups enhance aroma, while cold soups can boost saltiness. The perfect temperature depends on the soup's ingredients.
Cold soups date back to Ancient Rome, harmonizing with refreshing ingredients like cucumber and yogurt. Each soup type benefits from either heat or chill to maximize its unique qualities.
Clear soups are best enjoyed at approximately 210 degrees Fahrenheit, whereas creamier varieties fare well at 190 to 200 degrees. Cold soups like gazpacho are ideally around 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
Careful with temperature: soups above 158 degrees Fahrenheit can burn your tongue, and most people prefer eating at around 150 degrees to avoid discomfort.
