tablespoon of lemon
leaves from 3 sprigs of marjoram or thyme
1.5 teaspoons miso paste (or just salt if you don't have any)
2 tablespoons more olive oil (to blend into the soup)
olive oil, for drizzling
1/2 cup raw, unsalted, un-roasted cashews, soaked overnight* (see note)

Roast for 20-30 minutes, rotating halfway through. Remove when everything is starting to turn golden, but before the leeks are burning (if a few get too charred, it's ok, just pick them out later).Add to your blender (a Vitamix ideally), the veggies you just roasted, drained cashews, marjoram leaves, miso paste, a squeeze of lemon and half the water (1.5 cups). Blend until pureed. Add olive oil, paprika, and the rest of the water. Blend again. Taste and adjust seasonings.Pour into a medium saucepan and heat just until it's warm.
