About a hour before dinner, add the marjoram, salt and pepper. Using a hand emulsifier or a blender, blend the soup until smooth. 10 minutes before serving, add the cream cheese, let it melt and incorporate it into the soup. Might want to use the emulsifier for one last stir.<\/p>\n<p>I recommend serving this yummy soup with freshly baked brown bread and honey butter. To make the honey butter, let 2 Tablespoons of butter soften at room temperature. Add a healthy spoonful of honey. Mash and stir with a fork until incorporated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I started out with a recipe I found on the internet but my final product had very little in common with the recipe.
