Directions
Carrot-Orange Soup, A delicious, incredibly easy, elegant, and very nutritious soup. Can serve hot or cold. I make it weekly. Original recipe comes from Best Slow Cooker Recipes in Canada ., I really wanted to like this one. I did enjoy the first couple of bites, having never tasted Carrot soup before the flavor was interesting. But after the first couple of bites the onion got to be overwhelming. I didn’t use a full onion and even some out during the last couple of hours of cooking but it was still too much. The last of the orange juice was very mild.I won’t be making this again. The flavor was just not to my taste., This was easy and tasty. I made some modifications that included: frying the onion in a little butter with some fresh dill and then adding to the crockpot along with the other ingredients. This softens the taste of the onion. I also substituted I cup of the stock with a 1/2 cup of water and a 1/2 cup of white wine. When serving, I swirled some plain yogurt in each bowl along some chopped fresh dill– both added color and a nice fresh flavor. Dill works very well with carrots, particulalry when it is fresh.
