Categories     soup

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large white onion, big dice
4-6 garlic cloves, rough chopped
2 celery stalks, sliced
1 cup potatoes, thinly sliced or diced- or sub cauliflower, or more artichoke hearts
1 x 12-ounce bag frozen artichoke hearts ( or sub fresh hearts, or jarred, see notes)
3 cups veggie broth
1/3 cup cashews- optional ( see notes)
1 ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
6 sage leaves or 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
a squeeze of lemon, to taste
pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Sauté the onion in olive oil, over medium-high heat in a pot, stirring for 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and lower heat to medium. Cook garlic until fragrant, 2-3 more minutes. Add celery, sauté 1 minute. Add potatoes, artichoke hearts, broth, optional cashews, salt and sage (or thyme).
  • Bring to a boil, cover, lower heat and simmer until potatoes are very tender about 15 minutes.
  • Blend in 2 batches, for a full minute each, making sure those silky fibers get all blended up. I will often give the soup a taste right from the blender to see if it is still fibrous. If so, keep blending, they will go away, I promise!!!
  • Place back in the pot over very low heat. Add a little squeeze of lemon, and swirl in sour cream if using.
  • Taste, and adjust salt and lemon to taste.
  • Season with pepper.
  • Serve in bowls with a sprig of thyme a swirl of sour cream or vegan sour cream (see note) and a drizzle of truffle oil to elevate. A light sprinkling of black salt adds a nice contrast, or add croutons, toasted pinenuts, vegan cheesy sprinkle.

Artichoke Soup with Fresh Mint Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by GuidingVegan

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups veggie broth, plus extra, as needed
One 12-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
1 packed cup fresh spinach (about 1 ounce)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
Lemon wedges

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the celery, onion, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Cook the vegetables until just tender, about 4 minutes. Add 2 cups broth and the artichoke hearts and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until the artichoke hearts are tender, about 12 minutes. Puree the soup, 1 cup at a time, in a blender until very smooth, adding the spinach and chopped mint with the last cup. Return the puree to the same saucepan. Mix in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Warm over low heat, thinning with the additional broth by 1/4 cupfuls if the soup is too thick. Ladle the soup into bowls. Squeeze a lemon wedge over each bowl of soup before serving.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 lemons, halved
6 large artichokes
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

Steps:

  • Squeeze juice from halved lemons into large bowl filled with cold water. Cut stem off 1 artichoke, leaving about 1 inch. Snap off outer 2 rows of leaves. Cut off top 1/3 of artichoke. Quarter artichoke lengthwise. Using small knife, cut out choke and prickly small leaves. Place artichoke in lemon water. Repeat with remaining artichokes.
  • Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Drain artichokes, add to pot, and boil until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain. Transfer artichokes to rack and cool. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk oil, 1/3 cup lemon juice, and mint in small bowl. Season dressing to taste with salt and pepper. Brush artichokes with dressing. Grill until tender and lightly charred in spots, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes. Transfer artichokes to platter. Drizzle with some of remaining dressing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • For a creamier soup, use heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk.
  • If you don't have fresh mint, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried mint.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.
  • Garnish the soup with chopped fresh mint, Parmesan cheese, or croutons before serving.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Artichoke soup is a delicious and versatile soup that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover artichokes.
