For the past couple of weeks I've been on this soup craze! I have this intense urge to make it and a huge craving to eat it. Soup might just win over pasta as the food of love because it's warm and nutritious. I only make soup for those that I love. I make sure to simmer my stock with lots of flavor such as leeks, carrots, celery, thyme, and tarragon. I also love using my braun hand blender to blend soup into a creamy thick concoction without having to add additional carbs or fat.
Carrot Soup
5 medium carrots
1 apple
1 onion
2 quarts chicken stock
3 sprigs tarragon
3 sprigs thyme
1. Sweat onions in olive oil.
2. Pour in chicken stock, tarragon, and thyme.
3. When boiling add carrots and apple.
4. Simmer until everything is soft.
5. Turn off heat and blend with a hand blender. Be careful because the liquid is very hot and can splash.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
I wish I had a picture of the finished soup but sometimes it's hard to style food when hunger is calling. I served this carrot soup with a dollop of Soignon Fromage de Chevre a Tartiner goat cheese.
After I took this photo I had no shame and licked the bowl clean.
