Guest guest Posted February 28, 2004 Report Share Posted February 28, 2004 My favorite winter soup is carrot. I take a big stainless steal stock pot, use a little oil on the bottom of it, brown onions until they’re nice and soft and brown, salt and pepper. Then fill with a quart or two of filtered water, bring to light boil. While chopping lots of carrot’s and grinding up some ginger. Toss in carrots and ginger and lower to simmer. Not sure of the measurements I never seem to measure much of anything these days. But I use a couple of bunches of carrots at least. Use carrots that still have their green tops on, the soup will be sweeter and taste fresher. You can also throw in a turnip if you want. After carrots are soft and can be easily eaten, I remove from heat allow to cool for a while toss in a couple of ice cubes if your in a hurry. Or set stock pot in a kitchen sink full of cold water. When cool enough just blend soup in blender until smooth. I like to leave a little texture. Serve hot or chilled, topped with chives (chopped green onions) and a dollop of toffuti sour cream. Makes a great apitizer. Get better spam protection with Mail. http://antispam./tools Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
