Steps:
- Clean the bell peppers, cut them in half and remove the seeds and membranes.
- Place them on a baking sheet covered in foil, pressing them down to make them as flat as possible. Place the garlic cloves on the baking sheet among the peppers.
- Place the baking sheet of peppers and garlic under the broiler in the oven and broil for about 15 minutes until the skins are blackened. Remove from the oven and place the peppers inside a tupperware container, and close the lid. This will allow the steam to soften them more. Keep in there for another 15 minutes.
- While prepping the bell peppers, in a dutch oven, saute the onions with the olive oil until the onions are soft and translucent.
- After peppers have cooled enough to touch, about 15 minutes. Remove from the tupperware and peel off the burnt skin. It will peel off. (I only peeled the burnt parts that were easily removed and left the skin that was still red and attached)
- Place the bell pepper, garlic cloves, and onion into a food processor and processes for about 3-5 minutes until there are no large chunks left.
- Add the mixture to the dutch oven, add in the chicken stock, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover and allow to simmer for another 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat. Stir in the sour cream. Place the oregano in your hand and crush it up slightly to release the flavor and to make the pieces smaller, then pour into the pot. Stir until completely combined.
- Serve with extra sour cream and fresh herbs on top if desired.

Steps:
- Roast peppers: rub oil on peppers and put them under the broiler until blackened, turn to get all sides. Put into paper bag and seal. Let rest for 15 minutes, then peel will come right off and core and seeds will fall out. Chop peppers. Reserve one chopped pepper; set aside.
- Heat olive oil over moderate heat. Add onion and garlic and cook until soft but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomato, bell peppers (except reserved), thyme, paprika, and sugar. Cook over medium-low heat until all the tomato juices have evaporated, about 25 minutes.
- Stir in chicken stock, salt and pepper, cayenne pepper, and hot sauce (if using). Bring to boiling, lower heat, and simmer, partially covered, for 25 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
- Strain soup, reserving broth. Place solids in food processor or blender, and process until fairly smooth. Add puree back into broth.
- Melt butter and stir in the flour, cook for 1 minute. Stirring slowly, add the broth/vegetable mixture. Add reserved chopped pepper and bring to boiling. Lower heat and simmer 10 minutes.
- Ladle into bowls and add 1 tablespoon of sour cream to each bowl. For a lighter soup, this is also delicious without the sour cream.

Steps:
- Add butter to large saucepan and melt over medium heat.
- Add onion and garlic and saute for about 4 minutes, just to get the aromas flowing.
- Sprinkle mixture with black pepper.
- Add roasted red pepper and cook for another couple of minutes.
- Pour in the can of diced tomatoes with juice and raise heat.
- Pour in cup of water and add bouillon cube.
- Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
- Once bouillon cube has dissolved add cream and stir, removing from heat.
- *Give the soup a quick taste to see if salt is needed. Generally the bouillon cube is salty enough so you will probably not need it.
- Transfer small amounts of the soup into a blender, trying to keep an even liquid to vegetable ratio.
- Puree until there are little to no chunks left and pour into another saucepan.
- Continue this until all the mixture is pureed, leaving you with a hearty, thick soup.
- **If you want to freeze batches, do not add the cream. Puree the soup as normal, omitting the cream and add cream at a later time when the soup is defrosted.
- ***I use heavy whipping cream because I love the rich taste. If you want to cut back perhaps use only 3/4 cup or use a lower cream altogether. I find the heavy cream gives the soup a nice texture.
- ****Instead of using water and a bouillon cube you could always use store bought broth.
Tips:
- Use the right peppers: Look for ripe, bright red bell peppers that are firm and free of blemishes. Avoid peppers that are dull in color or have soft spots.
- Roast the peppers properly: Roasting the peppers brings out their sweetness and smoky flavor. Roast the peppers until they are blackened and blistered all over. You can do this on a grill, in a broiler, or in a hot oven.
- Remove the skins from the peppers: Once the peppers are roasted, let them cool slightly, then peel off the skins. This is easiest to do if you use a pair of tongs to hold the peppers.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of the soup, so make sure to use a good quality broth that is flavorful and not too salty.
- Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be simmered gently for just long enough to heat through and blend the flavors. Overcooking the soup will make it lose its vibrant color and flavor.
- Season the soup to taste: Once the soup is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, paprika, or cayenne pepper.
- Garnish the soup before serving: A dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of fresh herbs, or a drizzle of olive oil can add a nice touch of flavor and color to the soup.
Conclusion:
Roasted red pepper soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. With its smoky flavor and vibrant color, this soup is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a new soup recipe to try, give roasted red pepper soup a try.
