Submitted by pdxjosh

"A warm spicy soup that I made for lunch on a cold, sunny day. Molasses goes wonderfully with curry. Feel free to substitute other vegetables for the carrots, especially potatoes. Goes well with cornbread."

The ingredients in this recipe are bit of an odd combination but they do work in a funny kind of way. Don't forget the vinegar to offset the molasses as the taste of blackstrap molasses is quite strong.
