Chilled Burgundy Carrot Soup with Celery, Belgian Endive and Baby Golden Beets image

This recipe from the late chef Charlie Trotter came to The Times in 2001 as part of a story about the raw food movement, in which every element of every dish is raw, organic and vegan. If you do not have a juicer, buy carrot juice instead.

This soup is a bit bland for my taste. I added some chopped garlic and ginger to mine and it was much better.
