NOTES

This recipe produces approximately 2 liters of soup.
When it is freshly blended, you may find that the soup is not thick enough. It is important to know that it will thicken a lot in a short time as it cools. Avoid continuing cooking to thicken it, otherwise it may be too thick when it has reached the right temperature to serve.
If you have any leftovers or consume this soup later, be aware that it will also continue to thicken in the refrigerator.
