"This simple soup gets its creamy texture from a roux rather than cream, making it healthier and appropriate for a more-than-once-in-a-while treat."

This soup is BEAUUUUUTIFULL!! If you love cashews, you will love this soup, they are very prominent in this recipe. I grinded my cashews briefly in food processer, powdering some of them and leaving some of them chopped ruffly and I thought it was great for the texture. Simple is good!
