Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds peeled parsnips , cut into 1-inch chunks
1 large onion, cut into large dice
1 tablespoon butter
1 pinch sugar
3 large garlic cloves, thickly sliced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon cardamom
¼ teaspoon allspice
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or from a carton or can
1 ½ cups half-and-half (or whole milk)
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Garnish: sauteed hazelnuts and dried cranberries*

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, deep saute pan until shimmering.
  • Add parsnips, then onion; saute, stirring very little at first, then more frequently, until vegetables start to turn golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add butter, sugar and garlic; continue cooking until all vegetables are a rich spotty caramel color, about 10 minutes longer.
  • Add ginger, cardamom, allspice and cayenne pepper; continue to saute until fragrant, 30 seconds to 1 minute longer.
  • Add broth; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until parsnips are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Using an immersion blender or traditional blender, puree until very smooth, 30 seconds to 1 minute. (If using a traditional blender, vent it either by removing the lid's pop-out center or by lifting one edge of the lid. Drape the blender canister with a kitchen towel. To 'clean' the canister, pour in a little half-and-half, blend briefly, then add to the soup.)
  • Return to pan (or a soup pot); add enough half-and-half so the mixture is souplike, yet thick enough to float garnish. Taste, and add salt and pepper if needed. Heat through, ladle into bowls, garnish and serve.

Orange-Braised Carrots & Parsnips image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound carrots, with the greens attached
1 pound thin parsnips
1/3 cup small-diced shallots (1 large)
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 1/4 cups freshly squeezed orange juice, divided (3 oranges)
1/3 cup good olive oil
6 sprigs fresh thyme, tied with kitchen string
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • Trim and scrub or peel the carrots and parsnips. If the parsnips are thick, slice them in half or quarters lengthwise so they are about the same width as the carrots.
  • Place the carrots and parsnips in a pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, that's large enough for the vegetables to lie flat. Add the shallots, orange zest, 3/4 cup of the orange juice, the olive oil, thyme, red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  • Place the pot on the stove and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover tightly with a lid or heavy-duty foil. Transfer to the oven and cook for 1 1/2 hours, until the carrots and parsnips are very tender. Discard the thyme bundle. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of orange juice and the parsley and season to taste. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Soups, Stews & Stocks     Soup Recipes

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 Vidalia onion, coarsely chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large parsnip, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 2 1/4 cups)
1/2 small rutabaga, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 3/4 cups)
1 small celery root, peeled and coarsely chopped (about 2 1/2 cups)
2 thyme sprigs
2 cans (14.5 ounces each) chicken broth
2 oranges, such as navel and Cara Cara
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated peeled ginger
1/2 cup water, plus more if needed
Fresh tarragon leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and 3/4 teaspoon salt, and cook until onion is softened, about 6 minutes (do not let brown). Add parsnip, rutabaga, celery root, thyme, and broth. Bring to a boil, and reduce heat. Cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Discard thyme. Puree soup in batches in a blender until smooth (fill blender only halfway), and transfer to a clean pot.
  • Finely grate enough peel of 1 orange to yield 1/2 teaspoon zest. Working over a bowl, cut segments of orange free of membranes, and set aside. Squeeze juice from membranes into a bowl, then squeeze enough juice from remaining orange to yield 1 cup total. Just before serving, reheat to warm. Stir in orange zest, juice, ginger, and water, plus more to thin to desired consistency. Season with salt, and garnish with orange segments, tarragon, and pepper.

PARSNIP, GINGER AND ORANGE SOUP



Parsnip, Ginger and Orange Soup image

This soup is thick and rich tasting, without any rich ingredients. Great for a cool day, this recipe is taken from Barbara Cousins' book Cooking Without Made Easy. It is one of her books of recipes without added dairy, gluten, sugar, or yeast. I've embarked on eating this way and have had wonderful results, but have found some not so wonderful recipes along the way. These books are the big exception! There are so many wonderful recipes, including breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, baked goods and desserts. She is British, and some recipes are typically British, but she gives alternate measurements and the choices are diverse.

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 bowls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large onion
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons olive oil
455 g parsnips
225 g carrots
1 1/2 inches piece gingerroot
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
2 oranges, juice of
1 1/2 liters vegetable stock or 1 1/2 liters chicken stock
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Dice the onion and press the garlic clove then sweat these in the olive oil until the onion begins to soften. (Note: In her recipes, BC sweats vegetables by cooking in the oil over low heat for about 20 minutes to soften the vegetables and bring out the flavour.).
  • Peel and grate the parnips, carrots and giner and add them to the pan. Continue to sweat the vegetables until the parsnips and carrots begin to soften.
  • Add the orange rind and juice and the stock. Bring to the boil and simmer for another 10 minutes or until all the ingredients are cooked.
  • Process the soup. (Note: I use a hand blender right in the pot, but a food processor or blender would do as well.).
  • Season to taste with salt and pepper, heat through and serve garnished with parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the right parsnips: Select firm, smooth parsnips with no blemishes or bruises. Smaller parsnips tend to be more tender and flavorful.
  • Roast the parsnips: Roasting brings out the natural sweetness of the parsnips and gives the soup a rich, caramelized flavor. You can roast the parsnips whole or chopped, depending on your preference.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with real vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The parsnips should be tender, but not mushy. Overcooked parsnips will lose their flavor and texture.
  • Season the soup to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt for a bit of extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Parsnip, ginger, and orange soup is a delicious and nutritious way to warm up on a cold day. It's also a great way to use up leftover parsnips. With its sweet, savory, and slightly spicy flavor, this soup is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give this recipe a try!
