CREAMY SWEET POTATO ZUCCHINI SOUP



Creamy Sweet Potato Zucchini Soup image

This delicious soup is an easy way to disguise zucchini from picky eaters. It's nearly impossible to distinguish the zucchini from the sweet potato, and it gives the soup a beautiful, creamy texture. I discovered this soup in an attempt to use up zucchinis from my garden and sneak it into the soup without my zucchini-hating husband figuring out the deception. It worked! He loves the soup.

Categories     appetizer

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup diced yellow onion
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup peeled, diced carrot
1 1/2 teaspoons Roasted Garlic Puree, recipe follows
2 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
Pinch of ground allspice
1 small bay leaf
4 cups chicken stock
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon light molasses
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 cup peeled garlic cloves
1 cup extra virgin or regular olive oil

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a heavy 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot, and garlic puree; cook for 3 minutes, until vegetables are soft. Mix in the potatoes, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and bay leaf, and stir continuously for 2 to 3 minutes, until potatoes begin to soften and spices are aromatic.
  • Add the chicken stock, bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove the bay leaf. Puree the soup using a hand-held immersion blender, or blend in several batches in a blender. (If using a standard blender, place a folded dish towel over the top to prevent hot liquid from splashing out.) Pulse on and off until the soup is smoothly pureed. Return the soup to the saucepan and whisk in the cream, brown sugar, molasses, salt, and pepper. Serve hot.
  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Place the garlic in a small, ovenproof container and pour in the oil. Use additional oil if needed to completely immerse all the garlic cloves. Cover the container with aluminum foil and roast 1 hour, until garlic is soft and light golden brown.
  • Strain the garlic and place in a blender along with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Puree to a smooth consistency, adding a small amount of oil if necessary. Pour into a container and cover the top of the puree with a thin layer of the oil. Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
  • Reserve the remaining garlic-infused oil in another container and refrigerate.

CREAM OF BROCCOLI, SWEET POTATO, AND ZUCCHINI SOUP



Cream of Broccoli, Sweet Potato, and Zucchini Soup image

This is a lovely creamed soup, thick with veggies and flavor. It is something to serve company with a loaf of homemade bread and a salad. A country inn near us serves a soup similar to this, and has for years attracted people with it. This is the closest to it that I can get. Sometimes I think that this is better. I think the unique flavor is the cumin. It is delicious.

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 1h15m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup chopped onion
1 small head of broccoli (separated)
1 sweet potato (chopped)
1 medium zucchini (diced)
6 cups chicken broth
3 teaspoons Cremora
1/2 teaspoon celery seed
1 pinch nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon tarragon
1/2 teaspoon cumin
salt and pepper
3/4 cup instant instant potato flakes
1 cup cream

Steps:

  • Note before you start; the basil, tarragon, and cumin are added to taste--keep tasing till you get it the way you want it.
  • Break up the broccoli into flowerettes and simmer alone in another pan; set aside.
  • Cover the bottom of a large pot with butter and saute onions till golden, but not brown.
  • Add the sweet potato and zucchini.
  • Stir till veggies are hot and then cover with the chicken stock.
  • Put a colander down into the pot of liquid so that the liquid is up through the holes.
  • Measure the stock because this determines how much Creamora to put in (1 teaspoon of Creamora to 1 cup of liquid) and with a whisk, whisk in the Cremora.
  • Add the celery seed, nutmeg, basil, tarragon, cumin, salt and pepper.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Add the Potato Buds to the colander whisking all the time till it is thick.
  • Then gently take out the colaner and stir. You can use more or less depending on the thickness that you like.
  • Add the cream for extra richness (or a small can of evaporated milk would also do).
  • Then add the broccoli using as much as you like.
  • Do not boil this soup.
