Oh this looks so good, and the photo is so striking. I bet that the 1 tablespoon of heavy cream is all you need to bring that soup up to the next level of deliciousness. :)
Thank you so much! You hit it right on the head. More cream will be too rich. The flavors are very subtle. One thing I like with soup is to be able to taste all the elements and this one does. :)
