[ world famous recipes ] RECIPE: Cream of Carrot Soup - TNT

Cream of Carrot Soup
The base of the soup can actually be made a few days ahead and frozen
until the day needed.

2 cup carrots, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
3 large garlic cloves, minced
4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
1/2 cup cooked rice
Additional chicken broth if needed
1/2 cup dry Sherry or white wine (optional)
1 cup whipping cream or evaporated milk

Peel and cut the carrots, onions and garlic in small pieces. Put
carrots, onion, garlic and 1 cup broth in saucepan. Bring to a boil.
Simmer uncovered for 15 minutes, cover and simmer 15 more minutes.

Place in blender or bowl of food processor, with the salt, pepper and
rice. Blend until smooth, adding more broth if the paste is too
thick. At this point it can be saved in the refrigerator until later
or even frozen until needed.

Thaw the purée if needed. Blend in remaining broth and add sherry.
If you opt to not use Sherry or wine, you may add more broth.
Return to pan, heat until just boiling. Add cream just before
serving. Do not boil. Give it a few turns of freshly coarsely ground
peppercorns.

YIELD: 8 servings
