What do you do when the weather is just slightly warmer than the depths of the cold winter we’ve just left? If you’re me, you give a lighter soup a try, but by lighter, I don’t mean any less filling or substantial, I simply mean restricting the choice of vegetables used.
I’ve just written this recipe for carrot and apple soup as I’m tempted by the mixture of garlic, nutmeg and apple with the carrots. I have yet to make it, but it’s one that will go on the agenda very soon.
