Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Beet Soup.
Step 1
Begin by warming olive oil in a spacious saucepan over medium heat.
Step 2
Introduce the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing them gently until they soften, which should take about five minutes without letting them brown.
Step 3
Next, add the vibrant chopped beets and stir for an additional minute to infuse their earthy flavor.
Step 4
Pour in the stock, seasoning generously with salt and pepper, and bring the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 5
Once it reaches a boil, cover the saucepan, lower the heat to medium-low, and let it simmer until the beets are tender, which will take around 20 to 30 minutes.
Step 6
After simmering, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the soup to cool slightly.
Step 7
In batches, transfer the soup to a food processor and blend until it reaches a silky smooth consistency.
Step 8
Return the creamy soup to the saucepan, warming it gently over low heat until it’s just heated through.
Step 9
Finally, ladle the soup into bowls, finishing each serving with a delightful swirl of heavy cream for a touch of richness.
Step 10
Enjoy this comforting bowl of beet soup, perfect for any occasion.
