List of Ingredients




2 tablespoons butter
1 small to medium onion, diced.
2 tablespoons flour
4 medium carrots, diced
1 quart chicken stock
Half cup heavy cream
Salt and white pepper to taste


Recipe



Sweat the onions with some salt in the butter over low to medium heat until
they
are soft and translucent. Do not brown them. Add the flour and cook for two
minutes while constantly stirring. Add the carrots and cook for two more
minutes.
Add the stock, bring to a boil, and then simmer uncovered until the carrots
are
soft. Puree the soup in a blender and then work it through a strainer with a
ladle
or the back of a spoon into a pot. Bring it back to a simmer and stir in the
cream.
Season with salt and pepper. If the soup is too thick, add more stock. If it's
too
thin, continue to simmer until the desired consistency is achieved. That's all
folks.
