Print Recipe

A creamy and flavorful roasted red pepper soup enriched with smooth Gouda cheese, perfect for a comforting lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C). Roast the red bell peppers on a baking sheet until charred, about 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
  2. Place roasted peppers in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap; let steam for 10 minutes. Peel off skins, remove seeds, and chop.
  3. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the chopped roasted peppers and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream and shredded Gouda cheese until melted and fully incorporated.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Heat gently without boiling.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with fresh thyme if desired.

Notes

For an extra smoky flavor, use smoked Gouda and consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika. Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
