Creamy Parsnip Vegetable Soup

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Creamy Parsnip Vegetable Soup.

1. Step 1

   Start by melting a generous pat of butter in a large pot over medium-low heat, letting its rich aroma fill your kitchen.

2. Step 2

   Once the butter is bubbling gently, toss in the sliced carrots, leeks, chopped onions, grated ginger, and a sprinkle of dried thyme.

3. Step 3

   Stir occasionally, allowing the vegetables to soften and mingle their flavors for about 10 minutes.

4. Step 4

   When the kitchen starts to smell heavenly, add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, just until it becomes fragrant and inviting.

5. Step 5

   Next, introduce the sliced parsnips and pour in the vegetable broth, bringing the mixture to a lively boil.

6. Step 6

   Once it’s bubbling away, cover the pot, lower the heat, and let it simmer peacefully for about 15 minutes, or until all the vegetables are tender and ready to blend.

7. Step 7

   After simmering, carefully remove the pot from the heat and grab your immersion blender to puree the soup until it’s beautifully smooth.

   If you find the soup a bit too thick for your liking, simply stir in a splash more broth until it reaches your desired consistency.
