BEAUTIFUL SOUP (VEGETABLE SOUP WITH BEETS, DILL AND ORANGE ZEST)



Beautiful Soup (Vegetable Soup With Beets, Dill and Orange Zest) image

This is a sweet and buttery tomato-onion soup that evolved, many years ago, toward a kind of borscht, but stopped short. Borscht tastes too earthy for my palate. Tomatoes and orange keep the flavor a bit brighter and more acidic. The name comes from the colors: orange carrots, carnelian tomatoes, magenta beets. I serve it at home, at least twice each winter, with snow-white dollops of sour cream floating on top. It looks wonderful, tastes good, and is very healthful. And without my needing to say a word about mincing or dicing, it teaches my children about the satisfaction of a job well done.

Creamy Beet With Dill Soup image

A pureed vegetable soup can be an impressive, easy and affordable first course for an elegant dinner, or even a light dinner on its own with salad and bread.

Provided by USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Vegetable Soup Recipes

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds raw beets, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large onion, cut into large dice
1 tablespoon butter
1 pinch sugar
3 large garlic cloves, thickly sliced
1 teaspoon toasted caraway seeds*
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or from a carton or can
2 tablespoons fresh dill
1 ½ cups half-and-half (or whole milk)
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Garnish: chopped hard-cooked egg

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
  • Add beets, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until squash start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
  • Add caraway seeds and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
  • Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until beets are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree (adding fresh dill) until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
  • Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 cups chopped onion (from 1 medium)
6 cups chopped cauliflower (from 1 small head)
3 cups chopped peeled red beets (3 medium)
Coarse salt
6 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh dill, plus sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a medium pot over medium-high heat, and add onion; saute until just translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir in cauliflower, beets, and 1 teaspoon salt. Add broth, and bring to a boil.

Let soup cool 10 minutes, then puree in batches until smooth, adding a little water if necessary to thin.

Tips:

  • Utilize Fresh Vegetables: For optimal flavor and nutrition, use the freshest vegetables available.
  • Roasted Beets: Roasting beets intensifies their earthy sweetness. Roast them whole, wrapped in foil, at 400°F for about an hour or until tender.
  • Homemade Vegetable Broth: Elevate the soup's flavor by using homemade vegetable broth instead of store-bought. Simply simmer your favorite vegetables in water with herbs and spices.
  • Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs like dill and parsley add a burst of flavor. Use them both as a garnish and mixed into the soup.
  • Orange Zest: Orange zest adds a subtle citrusy brightness to the soup. Grate the zest of one orange directly into the pot.
  • Seasoning: Season the soup to your taste with salt and pepper. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
  • Garnish: Before serving, garnish the soup with fresh dill, parsley, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

This beautiful soup combines the vibrant flavors of roasted beets, fresh vegetables, and aromatic herbs. The addition of orange zest provides a unique citrusy twist, while the creamy yogurt adds a touch of richness.
