ROASTED ROOT VEGGIE BISQUE



Roasted Root Veggie Bisque image

This is an adaptation of a Barefoot Contessa recipe. I've been making Butternut Bisque for years but this one is fantastic. I made chicken stock from the remains of a lemon herb roasted chicken but I think this will also be very good with a good commercial chicken stock. Don't leave out the parsnips as I think they're the key to the fantastic flavor.

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb carrot, peeled
1 lb parsnip, peeled
2 lbs butternut squash, peeled and seeded
4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
6 -8 cups chicken stock
1 cup leek, sliced

Steps:

  • Dice carrots, parsnips, sweet potato and squash into 1 inch cubes. Divide between two cookie sheets, drizzle with 3 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with salt & pepper. Toss well to coat. Roast for about 30 minutes, turning once, or till just about tender.
  • Meanwhile, in large soup kettle, saute leeks in 1 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter, for about 10 minutes. When veggies are roasted, add to kettle along with 6 cups of chicken stock. Simmer 1 1/2 hours or till veggies are very tender. Puree about 3/4 of soup. I like to leave some veggies unpureed for texture. If too thick add enough stock to get desired consistancy. Serve with croutons or crackers.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of root vegetables. This will give your bisque a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include carrots, parsnips, turnips, rutabagas, and sweet potatoes.
  • Roast the vegetables before adding them to the soup. This will caramelize the vegetables and bring out their natural sweetness.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. If you don't have any vegetable broth on hand, you can make your own by simmering vegetables in water.
  • Add some herbs and spices to your soup. This will help to enhance the flavor of the vegetables. Some good choices include thyme, rosemary, sage, and nutmeg.
  • Garnish your soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt. This will add a bit of tanginess and creaminess to the soup.

Conclusion:

Root vegetable bisque is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a delicious and nutritious soup that the whole family will enjoy.
