Best 6 Baby Carrot Bisque Recipes

SWEET BABY CARROTS

Steps:

• Place the carrots into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two.
• Return the pot to the stove; reduce the heat to medium-low. Melt the butter in the pot. Stir in the honey and brown sugar; add the carrots and stir until evenly coated; cook another 5 minutes

CARROT BISQUE

Steps:

• In a stockpot over low-med heat, cook the carrots and the onions in the peanut oil for 7 to 10 min.; cover and stir occasionally. You want the onions to brown but not burn, although if the burn a little bit it's not the end of the world. Add the garlic, curry, salt, and pepper; saute for 1 more minute Add the 3 cups broth, cover, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 12 min., or until the carrots are tender.
• Add the coconut milk and bring to a low boil. Turn the heat off. Use a handheld blender to puree half of the soup; if you don't have one, then puree half the soup in a blender and add it back to the soup pot. Add the maple syrup and stir. Serve hot.

CARROT BISQUE

Steps:

• In a large stock pot, heat 1 cup of brandy on high heat until the liquid is almost entirely reduced (~3-5 minutes).
• Reduce heat to medium and add the stick of butter.
• Dice the onion and mince the garlic. Add to the pot when the butter is melted.
• Cook until onions are soft, stirring occasionally.
• While the onions cook, wash, but don't peel, the carrots. Cut them into 1" to 1.5" pieces, then slice in half the long way (resulting in 1"-1.5" long half-moon shaped pieces). Set aside.
• Once the onions are soft, add half of the chicken broth and whisk in the flour (it will probably remain a bit lumpy).
• Add the remaining chicken broth and the remaining cup of brandy. Whisk again and add the carrots.
• Let the mixture boil on medium for ~45 minutes or until carrots are soft. Stir every few minutes to avoid burning the flour to the bottom of the pot.
• Puree the entire mixture in a food processor. (It takes me three rounds to puree it all). Mix for ~10 seconds, scrape the sides, and then mix for another 10-15 seconds. If doing it in batches, grab a large mixing bowl to pour your pureed product into.
• Clean out your stock pot (be sure to get all the flour out). Pour the pureed mixture back into the stock pot and heat to medium. Be sure to keep stirring, or the thick mixture will pop and splatter at you. Not fun.
• Add your spices to taste and simmer for about 5 minutes. (If using crab, add it with the spices.).
• Add the cream and stir until completely mixed.
• If adding scallops, cook them however you like, (I melt some butter in a pan and fry them on medium for 60 seconds, flip them over and heat another 60 seconds) then shred them up and add them to the bisque last thing.
• For added flair: After you have ladled the bisque into bowls, you can swirl a drizzle of extra cream onto the top in a fun pattern.

BABY CARROT BISQUE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until golden.
• Add the carrots, half of the diced turnips (set aside the rest), bay leaves, and seasoning. Add just enough water to barely cover the vegetables. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
• Remove from the heat. Discard the bay leaves. With a slotted spoon, transfer the vegetables to a food processor or blender. Process until smoothly pureed, then transfer back to the soup pot.
• Combine the tofu and tomatoes in the food processor or blender. Process until smoothly pureed and transfer to the soup pot. Stir until both purees are well integrated, and return to medium heat. Stir in the ginger and cinnamon.
• Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a small skillet. Add the reserved turnip dice and sauté over medium heat until tender-crisp and golden, stirring frequently. Add the scallions and sauté another minute or so, until just wilted. Remove from the heat and stir the mixture into the soup.
• Stir in the peas, parsley, and orange juice. Season with salt and pepper. The soup should have a smooth, medium-thick consistency. Add a bit more juice or water if necessary.
• Simmer very gently over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes longer. If time allows, let the soup stand off the heat for an hour or two, then heat through before serving.
