    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat the oil in a stock pot over medium heat and sauté the onion for 4-5 minutes or until translucent.
  2. Add the stock, ginger, carrots and salt, bring the liquid to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes or until carrots are fork tender.
  3. Puree the soup using a hand blender or in a blender until creamy and smooth.
  4. Serve topped with a dollop of yogurt, sour cream or crème fraiche if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: To store carrot ginger soup in the refrigerator, allow it to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. It can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
  • Freezing: For longer storage, freezing is an excellent option. Once the soup has cooled, ladle it into freezer-safe containers, leaving some space at the top for expansion. Seal the containers tightly, label them with the date, and place them in the freezer for up to 3 months.
