Gingered Carrot Soup Review

Chopping Ginger

Carrot Peeling!

and Slicing!

and Blending!

The Main Course!

Dessert!

So the advantage of three chic chefs living in one place is when we are behind we can help get each other get caught up!!. We got together Friday night to make the Ginger Carrot soup accompanied by a Panini sandwich (turkey, pesto, provolone, spinach, tomato on sourdough YUM!) and Dessert (strawberry cheesecake, lemon tart, chocolate fudge cake YUM Again!) After lots of ginger chopping, carrot chopping and simmering, and much wine flowing......we took Serena's advice and used an immersion blender to blend up the soup. We also added the brown sugar and even added a bit more then recommended. At our initial taste test we all felt it needed a little something so we put a bit in two bowls and did one bowl with nutmeg and one with curry. The ingredient that won was the curry, we all liked the little zip it added to the soup. We all agreed that we enjoyed the soup, that it tasted good but that it was unlikely we would add it to the list of soups we normally make unless we had a craving for carrots! :) It was good and went great with our sandwiches and wine, we would definitely recommend panini's as a good pairing with it. And of course follow it up with a yummy dessert! Look forward to hearing how everyone else chooses to make this!
