I have canned Veg. Beef soup now for several years. Been doing it because DH cannot have salt. I use the beef that I can, greenbeans, butter beans, tomatoes all from garden. I add corn, peas, onions, potatoes, carots,celery, homemade beef stock. I make a very large pan of it and can it. I get about 14 to 16 qt. jars of soup. I also make my own chicken noodle soup. But I don’t put the noodles in it till I want to heat it up for lunch or dinner. That has homemade chicken stock, chicken that I have canned, corn, carrots, peas, potatoes. I do not add any salt as DH again cannot have the salt. I make up a very large pot and can in qt. jars. then cook up the noodles to add in it when we want it for lunch or dinner.
I stopped making the split pea soup because I could not use the ham because of salt content. I have made tomato soup and thicken it up when I heat it up.
I am open to other types of soups that can be canned. I want to make a barley soup but don’t think you are able to can barley. Looking into making bean soup as well but haven’t had the time yet.
Looking forward to any soup ideas you all may have.
