For a richer flavor, consider using roasted garlic instead of shallots. If you prefer a vegetarian option, substitute vegetable broth for the chicken broth. A squeeze of fresh lemon juice at the end can brighten the flavors. The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage.
