Ingredients
- 1 pound Root Vegetables *see Notes and Post
- 1 onion
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- ½ gallon water
- 1 large bay leaf or 2 small
- a few parsley fresh
- ¼ Teaspoon nutmeg
- 7 juniper berries
- 10 Black Peppercorn Whole
- Lovage, Allspice or Celery Seeds optional
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Rinse your root vegetables to get rid of impurities. Cut them into chunks and slice onion.
- Heat up a large soup pot with the oil and saute onion slices.
- Stir in the vegetables and saute for a short time to bring out the flavors.
- Add the water and season with bay leaves, nutmeg, black peppercorn, and juniper berries. You can also season with lovage, celery seeds, and allspice seeds if you have any.
- Bring the soup to a boil, and give it a quick stir. Keep on a steady medium heat setting.
- Cook and reduce soup, it will infuse all the more over time. This can take 60-80 mins.
- Season with salt when it's done cooking.
- Strain soup with a fine sieve or cheesecloth. We use the veggies in another dish (vegetable mash, casserole dish,...)
- Bring the strained soup back to the heat. Keep it hot until serving time.
- Serve as is or with dumplings or noodles (see post for ideas).
Equipments used:
Notes
