  • Chill the soup before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and develop. You can chill the soup for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Garnish the soup with fresh herbs: This will add a pop of color and flavor. Good options include dill, chives, or parsley.
  • Serve the soup cold or at room temperature: This soup is delicious served either way. If you are serving it cold, be sure to chill it thoroughly before serving.
  • Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days: Leftover soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the soup for up to 2 months.
