Steps:
- Preheat oven to broil. Place poblano chile peppers on a cookie sheet and place in oven. Allow skin to blacken and blister, turning the chile peppers until all sides are done. (Note: Do not overcook.) When they are done, place them in a paper bag and seal. In about 15 to 20 minutes, take them out of the bag and peel the skin off each one under running water. Remove the stems and seeds.
- In a blender, combine the chile peppers, broth, salt and pepper to taste and nutmeg. Blend until smooth. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk and set aside. In another saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter or margarine, add the flour and stir well. Add the warmed milk and stir until well blended. Add the chile pepper mixture and mix well. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Choose the right type of poblano peppers: Look for peppers that are dark green, firm, and have few blemishes. Avoid peppers that are wrinkled or have soft spots.
- Roast the poblano peppers properly: Roasting the poblano peppers brings out their smoky flavor and makes them easier to peel. To roast the peppers, place them on a baking sheet and broil them for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the skin is blistered and blackened. Once the peppers are roasted, place them in a paper bag and let them steam for 10 minutes. This will make it easier to peel off the skin.
- Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the soup. Use a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper Jack.
- Don't overcook the soup: The soup should be cooked just until the cheese is melted and the vegetables are tender. Overcooking the soup will make the vegetables mushy and the cheese tough.
- Serve the soup immediately: Cheesy poblano pepper soup is best served hot and fresh. Garnish the soup with chopped cilantro, sour cream, or crumbled bacon before serving.
Conclusion:
Cheesy poblano pepper soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. The soup is packed with flavor from the roasted poblano peppers, cheese, and spices. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, vitamin A, and potassium. If you are looking for a new soup recipe to try, I highly recommend cheesy poblano pepper soup.
