Description

This is one of my favorite Driftless Market soups. Easy to make, easy to freeze, you can always have a bowl on hand.

Ingredients

  • 3 T olive oil
  • 2 medium onions, peeled and chopped
  • 1 T fresh ginger
  • 2 medium turnips, peeled and chopped
  • 1 large celeriac, peeled and chopped
  • 2 medium parsnips or carrots
  • 1 zest and juice of 1 large orange
  • 4 c Water
  • 1 T fresh thyme
  • 1 T kikkoman soy sauce

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large stock pot; add onions and ginger and cook 2-3 minutes. Add carrots, turnips and celeriac and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Add the water, thyme, soy sauce and orange juice and bring to a boil; cook for 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are soft.

Remove from heat. Blend soup using a stick blender, food processor, blender or, for a chunkier soup, use a potato masher. Return soup to stockpot and add most of the zest leaving some for garnish. Return to boil. Lower the heat and add 3/4 cup yogurt (optional), simmering for 1 minute
.
Serve garnished with the remaining zest
