I hate straining, so I roast my red peppers, skin them, then puree 'til smooth. To roast: rub oil on peppers, put under broiler until blackened on all sides (for me, roughly 8 min per side). Put in a sealed tupperware container for 15 min, peel skin & core. Cut into strips for pureeing.

Delicious! I roasted the peppers in the oven and peeled them. This soup recipe really should be doubled to make enough for 4 people. The servings were quite small, so I roasted 3 very large red bell peppers and it still was not enough. Next time I will double. I also used Lawry´s Garlic Salt instead of regular salt. I suggest topping with a little sour cream and chopped up shallots on top. It tastes like you are at a gourmet french restaurant. Yum!

Delicious! Made just as given with the tiny exception that I roasted the peppers in the oven as another reviewer suggested. I used 1/2 and 1/2 instead of heavy cream, because that's what I had. A huge hit. The entire family loved it. A note: We thought it was even better the next day. Thanks Judi, a great recipe!

So good! I added sour cream, fresh parsley and frozen sweet corn to the mix. My husband liked it so much he took a picture of it before we started eating!

This turned out well. I left out the heavy cream and added a yukon gold potato to preserve the beautiful red color of the peppers. I roasted the peppers on the stove over an open flame. And the dash of cayenne is a must!

Very easy and good. I added a little salt, parsley and basil. I also pan-seared sea scallops and added three to each bowl of soup. Easy and impressive.

When I told my husband I was making "red pepper soup" he was unimpressed. When he actually ate it, he gave it a four thumbs up. In his words, "almost as good as Safeway's Tomato Basil Bisque." I thought it was a decent soup, but really think it would be better with roasted red peppers.

This is delicious with the proper adjustments. First I roasted the red peppers which is so easily done by cutting the tops off the peppers, getting rid of the seeds, and cutting them vertically in half. Then place them skin side up on a baking sheet lined with foil. Place your oven rack closest to the heat you can, and broil at 450, for about 15-20 mins, until the skins are black and welting. Then take them out and place them in a gallon ziploc bag, seal, and cover them with a kitchen towel. This allows them to "sweat" for about 5-10 mins. The skins will come right off then. I sauted the onions and garlic in the pan for the amount of time listed in butter. Then placed my roasted red peppers, onion/garlic mix in the blender until pureed. Put it back in the pot, and then added the chicken stock. I was contemplating about the straining part. I went to strain it, and decided immediately to not continue! To be honest the broth alone looks gross, it would just be orange colored chicken broth, and it leaves all the pulp (which is full nutrients, and healthiest part) behind. I dumped it all back together put it back on the burner, and added black pepper, and Cayenne. Please note that cayenne is a spice that the more time it heats up (tempature wise) the more th flavor comes out. So please allow it to simmer for a few minutes before truly taste testing. I also added a dash of chili powder to give it extra oomph! Dished it up, put a spoonful of sour cream in a baggie,

This is now one of my favorite soups! The only thing I did differently was roasted the peppers first. All I did was cut the peppers in half and put them under the broiler for about 20 minutes. I peeled the skin off after they cooled. It's so easy and you don't have to strain it afterward.

Fantastic recipe - the whole family loved it and my mom was flabbergasted! I cooked the pepper for 20 minutes (until really soft) and only simmered them for about 5 minutes in the broth. Then I pureed the soup, mixed in milk instead of cream, and served this with yummy homemade bread. This made a very, very fast lunch & I'll definitely use this recipe over and over again. Thanks!

This tasted good. I wasn't quite sure if i loved it, or if i was grossed out by it, but i think i liked it. Pretty much tasted like Red Pepper Soup. I would make it again, but only as a side dish to a meal, not as a main dish.

Wonderful and easy. I don't bother to strain it, I use half and half rather than cream, and I throw in some crushed red pepper for a little zip. Fail safe.

This is the best Red Pepper Soup recipe I have ever made and my family loves it. I roasted the peppers first, and then removed the skin. I also added some seasoning salt and because I live with a vegetarian I used a vegetarian "chicken stock". I made it once with a vegetable vegetarian stock but found that the flavor wasn't as rich. For special occasions I usually plate this "restaurant style" using a technique that a chef showed me. I add a small dollop of sour cream or creme fraiche to the middle of each soup bowl. Then I add a drop of balsamic vinegar to the middle of the sour cream and put a small peice of micro green (baby salad piece) beside it. It makes it look super fancy and doesn't alter the taste. Thanks Judi for this amazing recipe
