Notes
- This soup pairs really nicely with a bright and cold white wine, like a Sauvignon Blanc or Pino Grigio.
- A dollop of sour cream tastes really yummy on top of each plated bowl of soup.
- A squeeze of fresh lemon or lime enhances the flavors of the soup and gives it a bright and fresh aroma.
