For a richer flavor, consider using ham stock instead of vegetable stock. If you don't have herbes de Provence, a mix of dried thyme, rosemary, and savory will work well. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred level of spiciness. This soup tastes even better the next day, as the flavors have more time to develop.
