- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup heavy cream

- Simmer the Soup: Allow the soup to simmer for 20 minutes to let the flavors meld and the broth to develop a rich taste.
- Incorporate Heavy Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and cook for an additional 5 minutes to add creamy richness to the soup.
- Serve: Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
