- 1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper

Preparation
Melt butter in a deep saucepan or Dutch oven set over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper. Cover partially and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
Sprinkle flour evenly over onion mixture and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes without browning. Add 1 cup (250 mL) broth and stir until flour is completely incorporated. Add remaining broth.
Add vegetables and bring mixture to a boil. Cover and cook for 20 minutes or until vegetables are very tender. Discard bay leaf. Purée soup in batches and strain through a fine sieve. Stir in vinegar and cream.
Heat without boiling. Taste and adjust salt, pepper and add a little more vinegar if necessary.
