CREAMY ROASTED RED PEPPER SOUP

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the butter and olive oil. Add the onions, garlic, and oregano and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the potato and roasted red peppers and stir, cooking for 3 more minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 more minutes. Sprinkle in the salt and pepper and turn up the heat to medium-high.
• Pour in the white wine and let it reduce for a couple of minutes, then pour in the stock. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 18-20 minutes.
• Puree the soup using an immersion blender (or you can let it cool and puree it in a regular blender.) Add the cream and red wine vinegar and heat for a couple of minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings, then serve with grated Parmesan and fresh oregano leaves.

VERY VEGGIE SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, parsnips, garlic, turnips, onion, rutabaga, ginger, allspice, coriander and some salt and pepper. Stir and sauté for about a minute, until the vegetables are all coated in butter and starting to cook. Add the stock and thyme sprigs. Bring to a boil, reduce to a strong simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
• While the soup is cooking, heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet. Add the shallot slices and fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. They will crisp as they cool. Drain on paper towels and salt them while they are still hot.
• Puree the soup with an immersion blender or carefully in batches using a standard blender. Serve the soup hot, garnished with the fried shallots and parsley.

ROASTED VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Cut the Roasted Winter Vegetables into 1/2-inch pieces. Heat the olive oil in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the roasted vegetables and cook for 2 to 3 minutes to heat through. Add the vegetable stock, escarole, navy beans, Parmesan rind and 4 cups water, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 30 minutes to melt the Parmesan into the soup and combine the flavors. Season to taste with salt. Remove and discard the Parmesan rind.
• Right before serving, stir in the thyme and lemon zest.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, toss the carrots, parsnips, beets and radishes together with the thyme, garlic, olive oil, nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Arrange the vegetables in one layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until tender and golden brown in places, stirring once, about 25 minutes. Stir in the lemon zest, then transfer to a serving bowl.

ROOT VEGETABLE SOUP

Steps:

• Cut the onion, carrot, celeriac, potato, fennel, turnip, and artichokes into medium to large chunks. Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and cook until softened but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add the carrot, and cook for 5 minutes, and then add the remaining vegetables at 5 minute intervals, adjusting the heat as necessary so the vegetables don't brown. When all the vegetables are soft, add the chicken stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, or until the soup has come together; it should have a thick consistency. Garnish each bowl with the chile powder and more olive oil.
