Directions
Tasting notes: The bright cherry and cranberry flavors pair brilliantly with the lemon and rosemary and the earthy aromas come out with the chickpeas and carrots.
Serena's tips: Don't skip on the lemon, rosemary, parmesan blend, it definitely brightens the soup and gives it a delightful spark of light.
General process notes from Serena: Take out the parmesan rind and bay leaf before serving. I pulled the onion, got rid of the clove and then diced the onion and added it back in, leaving the clove out.
