Instructions

1. In a pot of salted boiling water, cook the macaroni until al dente. Drain.

4. In a blender, purée the soup until smooth and pass through a sieve. Pour the soup back into the saucepan. Season with salt and pepper.
5. In a bowl, blend the starch with the remaining broth. Pour into the soup and bring to a boil, whisking constantly. Simmer for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
