Print Recipe

This creamy Roasted Red Pepper Gouda Soup blends smoky roasted peppers with rich Gouda cheese for a comforting and flavorful dish perfect for any season.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large red bell peppers, roasted and peeled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Gouda cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh thyme for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Roast the red bell peppers over an open flame or under the broiler until charred on all sides. Place them in a covered bowl to steam for 10 minutes, then peel off the skins and remove seeds.
  2. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  4. Chop the roasted red peppers and add them to the pot. Pour in vegetable broth and bring to a simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender to puree the soup until smooth. Return to pot if needed.
  6. Stir in heavy cream and shredded Gouda cheese. Cook over low heat until the cheese melts and the soup is heated through, about 5 minutes. Do not boil.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with fresh thyme if desired and serve warm.

Notes

For an extra smoky flavor, use smoked Gouda or add a pinch of smoked paprika. Serve with crusty bread for a perfect meal.
