Directions

Melt the butter in a large soup pot; saute the onion, carrots, celery, green pepper, and hot pepper until all the vegetables are soft, but not brown.
Stir in the whole wheat flour and heat for 1 minute; add the stock and bring the mixture to a boil.
Use a whisk to blend in the tahini (which will look curdled). Lower the heat and simmer for five minutes.
Add the cheese by handfuls, whisking until each, one has melted completely. Carefully whisk in the milk powder (or use a blender to buzz it with 1 cup of the soup).
Add the salt, and just before serving stir in the sunflower seeds.
