consommé

rich clear soup

self-made consommé de volaille (double consomme soup with chicken)

Consommé is made from meat or vegetables, tomatoes, and a mirepoix simmered and carefully skimmed and strained to remove all impurities and fat, then clarified with an egg white to create a perfectly clear soup.
