all c’s soup

all c’s soup - a soup containing carrots, cashews, curry, and corn!

1. clean and chop up 7-8 large carrots (we had a bunch in the back of the fridge we had forgotten about) and put them in a pot of water to boil. you can use veggie broth instead if you like.
2. start soaking 1/2 cup cashews in enough water to cover them.
3. in 15 minutes, the carrots should be softened. drain the carrots, reserving the water for use later. grind the carrots in a food processor until they’re a fine-grained mush. re-add them the the reserved water in the pot.
4. drain the cashews, and grind them in the food processor with a little water. when it’s gotten to a consistently mushy texture, you’re done! add it into the pot.
5. turn the pot on low heat, and add in 1 tbsp spicy curry powder, 1-2 tsp salt, 1 tsp oregano, 1 bay leaf, a light dust of cinnamon, and a splash of soy milk if you want the soup extra creamy. keep it on low heat, covered, for 30 minutes.
6. after 30 minutes, make the soup really creamy! either using an immersion (handheld) blender, or in batches in your food processor, blend until all of the chunks of cashew and carrot dissolve.
7. add in 1 can, or 1 1/2 cups of corn.
8. continue cooking the soup for about five more minutes. then, serve and enjoy! http://hipsterfood.tumblr.com/post/4644110031/all-cs-soup-a-soup-containing-carrots-cashews
   

Supa de rosii fara foc, un adevarat deliciu

Supa de rosii

• 3 roșii coapte bine*
• ½ ardei roșu
• 1-2 Lg ulei presat la rece
• ½ cană cuburi de dovlecel
• 2 sun-dried tomatoes* (opt)
• 1 cățel usturoi
• sare după gust
• 1 roșie cuburi
• 1 fir de pătrunjel, mărar și cimbru

Aceasta reteta este una dintre retetele extrem de delicioase aflate in cartea de bucate. Va anunt cu bucurie ca aceasta este la tiparit in acest moment.

* Sun-dried tomatoes sunt cele mai gustoase rosii de pe pamant. Le puteti gasi la supermarket, Metro sau online.

* Rosiile bine coapte le recunoasteti dupa cotor. Daca acesta este verzui, sau nu are o culoare compacta ca restul rosiei, atunci a fost culeasa verde. Eu, cand d-na de la piata imi pune astfel de rosii, le scot imediat. E totul foarte comic, ea pune pe cantar, eu le scot si tot asa.

Toate ingredientele, cu excepția ultimelor 2, se mixează în blender. La final se adaugă roșia cuburi și verdeaţa. Mare grija cu condimentele și verdețurile, deoarece gustul este mai puternic când lucrăm cu hrana vie. Este de preferat să folosim cantități cât de mici pentru a nu avea surprize.
