Categories     Soup/Stew

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 onion, chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 cups chicken broth
1/4 cup medium-dry Sherry, or to taste
1/2 cup heavy cream
white pepper to taste
chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • In a kettle cook the onion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened, add the carrots, the ginger, and the cinnamon, and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the broth, bring the mixture to a boil, and simmer it, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until the carrots are very tender. In a blender or food processor puree the mixture in batches, transferring it to the kettle as it is pureed, and add the Sherry and the cream. Bring the soup to a boil and simmer it for 5 minutes. Season the soup with salt and the white pepper and garnish it with the parsley. Makes about 4 1/2 cups.
