This soup is a sneaky one. Once tasted, people often express surprise at its composition. The secret is the length of time you saute the onions - for the longer they cook, the sweeter the soup becomes. Pepper is another key ingredient. Ingredients:
4 tbsp butter or margarine |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 lb carrots, peeled and chopped |
4 c water |
2 cubes (vegetarian) chicken stock/boullion |
pepper to taste |
salt if desired |
water as necessary |
Directions:
1. Melt margarine in large pot, add onions. 2. Cook onions on low for up to 25 minutes, covered. You're attempting translucency here so 5 minutes will work, but the superior taste is in the time. 3. Add water, carrots and stock cubes. Boil until carrots are soft. 4. Remove from heat and puree. Add water as necessary to obtain desired consistency. 5. Add (salt) and pepper to taste. 6. Experiment with plenty of pepper! 7. Enjoy |
