Simmer: Pour in the broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. If using flour, sprinkle it in before adding broth and stir to avoid lumps.

Blend the soup: Use an immersion blender directly in the pot or transfer to a blender in batches. Blend until smooth or leave a bit of texture, depending on your preference.

Add cream: Return the soup to low heat and stir in the cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat through without boiling.

Serve: Ladle into bowls and garnish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of cream, or toasted bread for dipping.

Tips & Variations

Vegan Option: Substitute butter with olive oil and use coconut milk or cashew cream.

Make it hearty: Stir in cooked wild rice or diced potatoes for a more filling version.
