CREAM OF CARROT AND HONEY SOUP

Steps:

• Slice carrots (peel if using larger carrots) and put into a saucepan with the vegetable stock, honey, garlic and salt.
• Bring to boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
• Adjust seasonings to your taste.
• Puree in a processor or blender and process, gently reheat before stirring in cream.
• Do not boil once cream is added.
• Serve sprinkled with chopped parsley.
• N.B.~ If soup requires thickening (it is a personal preference) make a paste of a little cornflour and water mix well before adding to soup.

CROCK POT CARROT SOUP WITH HONEY AND NUTMEG

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until softened, 6 to 8 minutes, stirring often to cook evenly.
• Put the potatoes, carrots, garlic, and herbs in the slow cooker; add the onions and oil, scraping them out of the pan. Add enough of the water or broth to cover everything. Cover and cook on HIGH for 1 hour.
• Turn the cooker to LOW and cook until the vegetables are soft, 5 to 7 hours. Puree in batches in a food processor or right in the slow cooker with a handheld immersion blender; the soup will be nice and thick. Stir in the honey and grate the nutmeg right over the crock. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm on LOW without letting it come to a boil until serving. Ladle the hot soup into bowls and enjoy.

GINGER AND HONEY CARROT SOUP

Steps:

• Add the water, carrots, ginger, and salt and cook until the carrots are very tender, about 45 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the soup cool.
• When the soup has cooled, puree it in batches in a food processor or blender. Return the puree to the pot and place it over medium-high heat. Bring the puree to a boil and reduce it to the desired thickness. Add the honey, stirring until dissolved. Taste, adjust the seasonings, if necessary, and serve immediately.
