03

Step

7 mins

Gradually pour in the chicken broth, whisking constantly to prevent lumps. (1 minute)

For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.
Add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a subtle kick.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as celery or zucchini.
A swirl of heavy cream at the end adds extra richness.
For a vegetarian option, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
