For an even smoother texture, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the cheese. Garnish with extra parsley and a swirl of crème fraîche for a beautiful presentation. Adjust the amount of chicken broth to reach your desired consistency. For a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for chicken broth.
