Notes

For a richer flavor, consider using roasted garlic instead of fresh garlic. Adjust the thickness of the soup by adding more broth or cream as desired. You can also add a dash of nutmeg to enhance the creamy flavor. If you prefer a thicker soup, mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with water and add it to the soup while it simmers.
