Note

For added texture and sweetness, stir in 1/2 cup of raisins or chopped apples during the simmering step and cook until tender.

To make the soup more filling, add 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice or raw cashews in the last few minutes of cooking.

Garnish with scallion curls or herbed garlic croutons for a crispy contrast.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stove.
