Notes
- Recipe copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
- If you want to make this recipe more healthy, feel free to use 2% milk instead of half and half. Conversely, if you want a richer soup, cream is the way to go (in fact, it’s encouraged!)
- Serve your soup with a nice slice of crusty bread on the side
- If you don’t like the (slight) spiciness of white pepper, feel free to replace it with fresh-cracked black pepper
- If there are other vegetables you’d love to add to your summer soup, you can definitely try them out! Let me know in the comments what you experimented with.
