Recipe View 2 mins Return the puréed soup to the saucepan and stir in heavy cream. Heat gently over medium heat until warmed through. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

For a richer flavor, try using roasted vegetables. Roasting the onions, carrots, and celery before adding them to the soup adds a depth of flavor that enhances the overall experience.
If you don't have fire-roasted tomatoes, plain diced tomatoes will work just fine. Consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika for a similar smoky flavor.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves or a swirl of cream for an elegant presentation.

    I am not a big fan of nutmeg, so I reduced the amount by half and it still tasted great.
