Cooking time can be greatly reduced by microwaving the carrots until they are becoming soft before adding them to the cook pot.
The soup can be pureed with an immersion blender (preferred). However, you can achieve similar results by straining the soup and then using a conventional blender, food processor, food mill, or potato masher to break up the remaining carrot pieces and adding that back to the soup. This recipe can be made to satisfy a vegan diet by using vegetable broth and a vegetable-based oil.
