GOLDEN BEET AND PEACH SOUP WITH TARRAGON
One summer we had a bumper crop of peaches from our two trees, so I had fun experimenting with different recipes. After seeing a beet soup recipe in a cookbook, I changed it a bit to include our homegrown golden beets and sweet peaches. -Sue Gronholz, Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

BBQ BABY CARROTS WITH DILL-YOGURT SAUCE
These baby carrots are all grown up with a barbecue rub, the perfect char, and a cooling homemade sauce. We're going to treat the carrots as you would a barbecued brisket by coating them in a homemade rub and quickly charring them on the grill. You won't look at baby carrots the same again.

Steps:
- FOR THE BARBECUE RUB: Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well. Place the baby carrots in a large bowl and coat with olive oil. Shake the bowl gently to ensure the oil covers all of the carrots. Add three tablespoons of the barbecue rub and shake to incorporate. Set aside for use. Note: You can store the remaining rub in an airtight container for future use.
- FOR THE DILL-YOGURT SAUCE: In a medium bowl, combine the yogurt, dill, lemon juice and buttermilk. Whisk well. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve for use.
- Light the charcoal using a chimney starter. Place real wood charcoal into the chimney. Place several sheets of loosely crumpled newspaper under the bottom of the chimney. Ensure the charcoal is red hot, should take approximately 20-25 minutes.
- Spoon the carrots onto a grill screen over direct heat. Note: If you reserved the carrots in the fridge and they have released moisture, add another teaspoon of barbecue rub to the carrots before grilling. Cover grill for 5 minutes. Remove cover and check for doneness. They should be tender (when squeezed they should forgive). If not, cover and cook for another 3-5 minutes. It will take about 8-10 minutes total.
- TO MAKE HOMEMADE TOASTED PECANS: Spread pecans on a sheet tray and place in a 350 degree oven for 8-10 minutes. Coarsely chop. Arrange finished carrots in a serving bowl. Garnish with pecans and dill yogurt sauce.
BEET SOUP WITH TARRAGON, CHIVES AND YOGURT
Freshly cooked beets, though they take a while to prepare (see Tip), are so delicious that they're worth the effort. Cook them the day before you need them and keep them in the fridge for up to a week, to use in salads or for a soup. For this borscht-inspired soup, a splash of vinegar tempers the beets' natural sweetness, which is perfectly complemented by a splash of tart herby yogurt. The good news is this soup may be served warm or chilled; each way is refreshing.

Steps:
- Put olive oil in a heavy-bottomed soup pot or deep, wide skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, cook slowly, stirring, until softened, about 10 minutes.
- Add beets and season generously with salt and pepper. Add a pinch of cayenne and pour in vinegar. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, then add water and raise heat to a brisk simmer. Taste broth and adjust. Cook for another 10 minutes, until beets are completely soft.
- Purée in a blender, in batches if necessary, and strain through a fine-mesh sieve. (Consistency should be like heavy cream, no thicker - thin with water or broth as necessary). Return puréed soup to pot and reheat. In a small bowl, combine yogurt with tarragon and chives. Add a good pinch of salt and beat with a fork to loosen yogurt.
- Taste soup, and adjust for salt and vinegar. Ladle into individual bowls. Swirl a large (2 to 3 tablespoons) spoonful of herbed yogurt across the surface of the soup.
