In Canada the 2014 Milk Calendar will be in many news papers this weekend. I
went to the web site for this recipe where there is all the recipes from Milk
Calendars dated back to 1974.
Carrot Soup
Homemade soup fits the bill for a quick weeknight dinner, lunch packed up and
ready to heat or a starter for a weekend meal. The sweet taste of carrots
accented with cheese and milk will please all members of the family.
3 cups shredded carrots (about 5)
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 tsp dried parsley flakes
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 cups milk
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
1 1/2 tbsp salt
1/2 tsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 cup shredded Canadian Cheddar cheese
In a large saucepan, combine carrots, onion, parsley and broth; cover and bring
to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and boil gently for about 10 min
or until carrots are soft.
In a large glass measuring cup or bowl, heat milk in microwave on medium-high
(70%) power for 3 to 5 min or until steaming.
In a small, microwave-safe bowl, melt butter on medium-low (30%) power for 1 to
3 min, until melted; whisk in flour, salt, sugar and pepper. Gradually pour
into warmed milk, whisking constantly.
Gradually pour hot milk mixture into carrots, stirring constantly. Cook over
medium heat, stirring often, for about 5 min or until soup is thickened. Remove
from heat and stir in Cheddar. Ladle into warm bowls to serve.
Recipe from Anne Friesen, dairy farmer from Morden, Manitoba.
