Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.

Reheat gently on the stovetop over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Add a splash of water or broth if the soup seems too thick.

Try a dollop of sour cream, fresh dill, or a squeeze of lemon. Serve with crusty bread or a side salad for a complete meal.
