  4. Pour soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel; carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get soup moving before leaving it on to purée. Purée in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. (Alternately, you can use a stick blender and purée soup in the cooking pot.) Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with sour cream and thyme to serve.
