Ingredients:

  • 1 medium onions
  • 1 cloves garlic
  • 1 jalapeno pepper (to taste)
  • 11/2 tsp turmeric
  • 3/4 cup cream
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • for smoke: 2 cups apple wood chips, a smoker.

Directions:

  1. Soak apple wood chips for at least one hour.
  2. Light smoker /turn on smoker, set to a medium to low smoke. While smoker is setting;
  3. Peel carrots, trim ends leave whole.
  4. Peel and Chop onion.
  5. Peel garlic, leave whole.
  6. Peel and seed Jalapeno. Taste the pepper for heat, I like to add just enough jalapeno to have just a hint of heat.
  7. Set carrots on smoke rack and smoke for an hour or so, the carrots pick up the smoke much faster than meat.
  8. In a adequately large pot melt the butter bringing it to the point where it foams and just begins to show color, immediately add all vegetables.
  9. Cook off for 10 minutes , Stir regularly, be careful to not let the carrots caramelize“color”. Add ice cold stock, bring to a low simmer, very slowly.*
  10. When soup comes to a simmer, reduce heat & continue at the lowest temp that still produces the slightest simmer.
  11. Continue cooking for 1 hour. The vegetables should be just about mush by now.
  12. Puree in blender to the thinnest level your machine will allow.
  13. Add cream, (yogurt can be substituted for the cream, just add after off the heat).
  14. Place back on heat, Taste for salt and pepper. bring back to low simmer for another 5 minutes taste again for salt.
  15. For Garnish:Very fine julienne of carrots and small dollop of Crème fraîche
  16. *Bringing the soup to a simmer from ice cold to simmer very slowly allows for a more complete extraction of flavor.
  17. Note: You can strain soup through a china cap or fine strainer after final cooking for a more “elegant” texture.
