Description

Fourteen dollars for a bowl of soup on the delivery app, or a noodle cup that leaves you hungry by three? There is a third way: a jar of real soup you pack at home that becomes a hot lunch with just water from the office kettle. My name is Setsuko. In Japan we have made instant soup this way for a long time, with miso-dama, little miso balls. Today I show you seven pocket soup jars, why the carrots stay crunchy and the noodles stay hard, how to keep the glass from cracking, how to pack chicken and shrimp safely, and how to plan a week of lunches for about a dollar a jar. Tell me in the comments which jar you will make first.
