ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon sweet butter
- 1 cup onion, peeled and chopped
- 1⁄2 cup carrot, diced
- 1⁄2 cup celery, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 granny smith apples, chopped
- 1 teaspoon ginger, freshly ground
- 1 cup white wine
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1⁄2 teaspoon coriander
- 3 cups beets, peeled and chopped
- 6 cups vegetable stock
directions
- In a large saucepan, heat the oil and the butter. Add the onion, carrots and celery; saute 5 minutes over low heat.
- Add garlic, apples and ginger. Then add wine and spices. Saute for 3 minutes.
- Add cubed summer beets and stock. Stir well and bring to a low simmer for 30 minutes.
- Turn heat down and let sit for 20 minutes before turning to puree in blender. I suggest using an immersion blender since hot soups in blenders are very dangerous - they blow the lid and may cause burns. Return soup to pot.
- ** My notes: my husband served this at room temperature with creme fraiche, so, vegetarian, not vegan, but delicious! And beautiful!
