What Can I Do With A Lot Of Carrots

Blend In A Stand Blender

Stand blenders always yield ultra creamy results. Immersion blenders dont come close! Thats why I always recommend blending soup in a stand blender instead. I dont like cleaning extra dishes, either, but the resulting texture is worth the effort. You can find my favorite blenders .
Be careful while blending. Let the soup cool for a few minutes before transferring to a blender, never fill past the maximum fill line , and be careful near the steam escaping from the lid .

Why Should You Make This Recipe
In todays post, we are adding a new recipe to the collection of fall soups with this creamy and healthy carrot ginger soup recipe . There is so much to love about this velvety soup. Here are a few reasons why you should give it a try:
- An actually healthy soup recipe: Made with just a few good-for-you and simple ingredients like carrots, onions, ginger, and fresh garlic, this easy carrot soup is packed with antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties.
- Made two different ways: I am going to show you how to make it in two different ways. First, I will make it by roasting carrots in the oven, and then second, I will show you how to make it on the stovetop. If I am being honest, the version made with roasted carrots is my favorite because of the complex flavors that are caused by caramelization that happens in the oven. However, I wanted to show you the stovetop method just in case you are planning to make this during the holidays when your oven is in high demand and you have other things to cook in it. The good thing is that both ways take about the same amount of time from start to finish.
- Meal prep friendly: It can be made ahead and leftovers freeze well.
- Can be served warm or cold: While I usually make this during the cold days of fall/winter, this easy soup can also be served cold.
Tips To Make It Ultra Creamy

You can use either a hand-held immersion blender or a high-powered blender to puree the soup. If you use an immersion blender , it will be creamy, but with texture.
If youd like the soup ultra creamy, transfer it to a full-sized blender and blend on high for one minute. Itll be silky smooth.
You can also add more broth to the soup, if youd like it thinner rather than thick and hearty. Its up to you!

How To Make Roasted Carrot Soup
Its super easy. First, you toss the carrots in olive oil, salt, and pepper, and you roast them in the oven until gloriously golden.
Meanwhile, sauté the onions and add the ginger and broth. Sautéing the onions just to the point of browning simmering the ginger each step helps to maximize the flavor of each ingredient.
Let it cool for a bit, because the next step could create a bit of splash-over pureeing! Add the roasted carrots to the soup and blend. You can puree your roasted carrot soup in your high-speed blender or right in your pan with an immersion blender. Running the soup in the high-speed blender for some extra time will give you the creamiest consistency, if youre looking for that.
Next, return the soup to the pot and add cream for the vegetarian version, or coconut milk for the vegan version. Swirl it on in! Then taste, add some more salt and pepper if you like, and devour.
I like to top my roasted carrot soup with an extra drizzle of coconut cream and maybe a little snippet of parsley.
And dont forget the bread!

Variations & Ideas To Change It Up / Serving Suggestions:
While I love this creamy carrot soup as it is, you can try the following version to change it up:
- Cold or Chilled Carrot Ginger Soup: If you are serving this during the summer months, you can also serve it cold. If you are doing so, I highly recommend using a high-speed blender to make it extra creamy.
- Carrot Apple Ginger Soup: Similar to how I did with my Butternut Squash Apple Soup recipe, you can add in an apple to up the sweetness of the soup. I usually go for a Granny Smith apple but you can use whatever kind you have on hand. Simply cut it into cubes and place it at the same time when you add the carrots into the pot.
