Notes to make broccoli with meat soup better

  • Coconut aminos that we make our dish with is similar to a sauce and will make the soup special. However, it is not necessary to add it.
  • We said before that if you want to make your soup thicker add flour. This is true, but we didn't use it here with this recipe. You are totally free to use it.
  • It's not necessary to use a pressure cooker if you don't have it, but using it will save you a lot of time. So, make sure to get one if you don't have it.
  • Another thing, you can use water instead beef broth with the same amount. If you used water it's better to cook beef all the way with the soup.
