For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the soup before adding the cheese. For a richer flavor, use a combination of sharp and mild cheddar cheese. If you don't have white pepper, you can use a pinch of nutmeg instead. To make it vegetarian, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. This soup can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently over low heat.
