For a creamier texture, consider using Greek yogurt. Adjust the amount of chile peppers to suit your desired level of spiciness. Remove the seeds from the peppers for a milder flavor. If you prefer a vegetarian version, ensure your yogurt is made without animal rennet. This soup can be easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings. Garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as dill or mint, for an added layer of flavor.
