  4. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer ingredients for 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. Remove pot from heat, place into blender* and puree until smooth.
  6. Add salt and pepper.
  7. If the mixture is not smooth enough add a few teaspoons of water and puree until smooth.
  8. * When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes.
  9. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway.
  10. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid.
