Velvet Carrot & Ginger Soup
Serves 4
|
|
With only a few ingredients in this soup, each must be the best you can find. Choose young, tender carrots, pure Fond de Poulet Gold, and high quality butter. A few spoons of rice, cooked with the carrots, thicken the soup into a satiny potion. Sweated carrots retain a vibrant orange hue.
