Will home-made soup NOT deteriorate between now and Christmas afternoon?

[Pan]

Am doing a leek, potato and onion soup for a starter. Wishing to make it today and keep refrigerated. Is there any reason to think it will in anyway go off in the next 72 hours?

I think it would be OK as long as it does not contain milk or cream.

Or if it does contain milk/ cream to make sure its very fresh stuff. You should be fine.

Or just add the cream on the day rather than now?

oh it does contain milk, fresh today. It tops with cream on serving.

If there is doubt I don't want to risk it. I have an extended family member who will note any fault (real or imagined) and may end up wearing it if he says anything as it is! thanks v much for your replies. Appreciated.

I'm a big fan of starting early but wouldn't personally make it three days in advance. Vegetable soups are always nicest when they're still a bright colour. Make it the night before perhaps?

yes Cogit - best to do that. Time will be a bit tight but prob. best, thanks.

Do you have space to freeze it?

I'd do it, personally.

Disclaimer: my fridge is full of quite Jurassic things.

Well not really. It'll be in a big pot and so v messy to divi up. I think I'm agreeing with Cogit. Just best to make the time on Monday.
