Yes, we can adjust it with hot water. Please wait a moment while I bring it.
Gesture & etiquette
Point to the soup bowl, then make a slight spreading or 'less' gesture with hands.
Avoid asking for major recipe changes; minor adjustments (like thickness or spiciness) are often possible and polite to ask.
