Once everything is roasted, add to a blender along with vegetable stock paste, water, milk, 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese, 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper to a blender. Blend until smooth and add more water if needed to make the soup smoother.
Add blended soup to a large soup pot and warm over medium-low heat until a desired temperature. Serve the soup garnished with fresh dill, chili flakes, cheddar cheese, apple and/or drizzle of olive oil. Optional: brulee the top of the soup once the shredded cheese is added.
