Mmmm... the goodness of carrot ginger soup.

September 21, 2020

Mmmm... the goodness of carrot ginger soup. . Fall weather has kicked in... so it’s soup galore in our kitchen. This soup is a special one. It’s one that I took inspiration from a dinner at Windows of the World - the iconic restaurant atop the twin towers. My husband and I had dined there for our wedding anniversary and on their specials was a ravioli in carrot & ginger sauce. The taste stayed with me and I tweaked it into this soup, which always makes rounds on our dinner table during Fall and many Holiday dinners . Sauté in butter - one chopped onion, roughly chopped 1 inch ginger and 6-8 long carrots, also chopped into chunks. Season with a little salt, add a cup of water and either cook on stove top until carrots are cooked or pressure cook in Instant Pot for 5 minutes with natural release. Once done, run an immersion blender and blend till everything is puréed smooth. Add 2 cups of vegetable broth and 1 cup half & half, some fresh ground pepper and salt to taste. Bring to a boil and it’s done. I served this with a side of crostini topped with some burnt chili crunch. . Note: Ingredient proportions can be adjusted as you like. . This plated expression soup is the perfect blend of savory and sweet fall flavors with an added kick from the ginger. Add the crunch of the crostini and you have a full rounded flavor and taste journey. . Make it. Share it. Tag it #platedexpressions .
