Pro Tips
- Roasting the peppers is crucial — it develops sweetness and smoky aroma that elevates the soup from good to outstanding.
- Buy smoked paprika (Pimentón de la Vera) — it's worth it for the flavor.
- Keeps in the refrigerator for 3 days, frozen for 3 months — freeze without the cream, add it when reheating.
