Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups chopped carrots
3 cups fat-free chicken broth
½ onion, sliced
water to cover
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried tarragon
2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Combine carrots, chicken broth, and onion in a large pot. Pour enough water into the pot to assure the ingredients are covered; add garlic, thyme, and tarragon.
  • Bring the liquid to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the pot, and simmer the mixture until the carrots are very tender, 40 to 50 minutes.
  • Remove pot from heat and cool soup for 10 minutes. Puree soup with an immersion blender or mash vegetables with a potato masher and whisk the soup until smooth.
  • Return pot to medium heat and cook until reheated, about 5 minutes. Stir cream through the soup.

I made a few substitutions to the recipe (used vegetable broth instead of chicken broth and added a pinch of cayenne pepper) and it still turned out great.
