broth, water, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and cayenne. If liquid does not cover the vegetables, add
more water.

tender, about 10 minutes. Turn heat off, remove bay leaf, and add dill and parsley.

immersion blender (or regular blender with batches) to blend the soup until silky smooth. For extra “green color” add a handful of raw spinach or more parsley.
