I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong kind of poblano peppers.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt.

This soup was a little too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use half the amount of poblano peppers.

I'm not a big fan of poblano peppers, but this soup was still really good. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup was very creamy.
