Ingredients

4 cups chopped carrots 2 tsp. olive oil 1 cup chopped onion 4 cups vegetable (or chicken) broth 2 Tbsp. honey 1 Tbsp. soy sauce

1 1/2 Tbsp. Ground Cumin Seeds

4 tsp. choice of curry powder:

Medium Yellow Curry Powder (Salt-Free)

Mild Yellow Curry Powder (Salt-Free)

2 tsp. Fine White Sarawak Pepper

1 tsp. Minced Garlic

1 tsp. Sel Marin de Guerande Grey Sea Salt

1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream

Directions

Step 1 Place carrots in a 4-quart saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer until fork tender, about 30 min. Meanwhile, heat oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook until translucent, about 4 to 6 min.

Step 2 Drain carrots and place back in saucepan. Add cooked onions and remaining ingredients except for cream to the saucepan with the carrots. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 min. Remove from heat and use an immersion or stand blender to puree until smooth. Stir in cream to taste and serve.

Recipe Notes

This soup has a spicy kick. You can cut back on the cumin, curry powder, or white pepper by up to half (to taste) for an equally flavorful but little less zippy soup.
