For a creamier soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially puree the soup after simmering. Be careful not to over-blend; a little texture is nice. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end can brighten the flavors. To make this soup even more flavorful, try roasting the vegetables before adding them to the pot. This soup freezes well. Allow it to cool completely before transferring it to freezer-safe containers.
