merknader

Make this soup a day ahead if possible, as the flavors deepen after resting in the refrigerator. Reheat gently on the stove and add a small splash of broth if it thickens too much. The lemon juice at the end keeps the taste bright, so avoid skipping it or substituting with a milder acid.
