Print Recipe

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

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large red bell peppers, roasted and peeled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded smoked Gouda cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place red bell peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until charred on all sides.
  2. Transfer the peppers to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let steam for 10 minutes. Peel off skins, remove seeds, and chop roughly.
  3. In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic; sauté until soft and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add roasted red peppers, vegetable broth, and smoked paprika to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, carefully blend in batches in a countertop blender.
  6. Stir in milk and shredded Gouda cheese. Cook on low heat until the cheese melts and soup is heated through. Do not boil.
  7. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For an extra smoky flavor, add a splash of smoked white wine or serve with crusty bread for dipping.
