Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
2 1/2 cups chopped leeks
1/2 cup chopped parsley
3 tablespoons minced peeled fresh ginger
2 large shallots, minced
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
4 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 lbs peeled parsnips, chopped coarsely (4 cups)
2 cups half-and-half

Steps:

  • Melt butter in heavy pot over medium heat.
  • Add next 5 ingredients and saute until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in broth and parsnips; bring to boil.
  • Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until parsnips are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Working in batches, puree soup in blender until smooth.
  • Strain into another large pot; discard solids in stainer.
  • Whisk in half and half.
  • Simmer soup over medium heat until heated through, about 10 minutes.
  • Season soup with salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

  • Choose the right parsnips: For the best flavor, select firm, smooth parsnips with no blemishes or bruises.
  • Roast the parsnips before pureeing: Roasting the parsnips brings out their natural sweetness and caramelizes them slightly, giving the soup a deeper flavor.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The parsnips should be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooking will make them mushy.
  • Season to taste: Add salt and pepper to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a bit of spice.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, chives, or thyme, add a nice pop of color and flavor to the soup.

Conclusion:

This gingery parsnip bisque is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting soup, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
