Chef's Tip
  • For fresh herbs and spices, use about 3/4 teaspoon of fresh sage for the bisque and about 1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger for the Sweet Ginger Cream. Both the bisque and sweet ginger cream can be made up to 3 days in advance of serving.
  • If using an immersion blender, skip the food processor step and blend all ingredients in pot together until smooth before heating in soup bowl.
