Notes

  • Make sure vegetables are fully tender before blending to avoid grainy texture.
  • Blend longer than you think for ultra-smooth consistency.
  • If soup thickens after chilling, add a splash of broth when reheating.
  • For added protein, blend in one can of white beans.
  • This soup thickens naturally as it cools.
