Roasted Carrot & Ginger Soup
This soup has helped me to turn a new leaf on my dislike for cooked carrots. When carrots are roasted, with a little olive oil, they become tender with a beautiful caramel color. This soup is flavored with shallots, celery, and fresh ginger. A dash of white wine and fresh orange juice gives the soup a new layer of flavor and brightness.
You can use either chicken stock or vegetable stock create a creamy and heart soup that is healthy. If you don't tell your dinner guests what the soup is, they'll have a hard time guessing! It tastes like a cross between sweet potato and a sweet flavor, you can't quite put your finger on!
