Tips

• You can store the soup in air tight container if you don’t like to consume all in one go. one in container store it in fridge and you can enjoy it in small quantities for up to 3-4 days. stir while reheating to get the same richness of the soup just as it was made fresh.
• if you plan to consume it for long time then its ideal that you freeze in a freezer bag or container and label it with date. you can consume it for up-to 3-4 months easily when kept in freezer. whisk while reheating and serving as sometimes cream may form separate layer after freezing, so to avoid it stir the soup while serving.
• you can also use milk instead of cream if you like to have light version of this soup with less calories or are planning to freeze it for long term. if you want to reduce the carbs in this soup then reduce the flour quantity in soup.
• you can also serve this with bread chunks, its taste good to have with bread chunks.
