Notes
Top tips to make perfect soup
- Chop vegetables evenly and small - The smaller you cut the veggies, the shorter will be the cooking time.
- Vitamix vs Regular Blender - You can certainly use a hand blender (aka immersion blender), a food processor, or a regular blender. They all make a creamy sauce. However, if you need this sauce to be extra smooth without a single little piece to find (just like in the pictures), we recommend using a high powered blender like Vitamix*.
