Directions: |
Directions:In large pan, add all ingredients except ‘milk’ butter,flour and those seasonings, which create a rich ‘cream sauce’ added at the end.
Cover with enough water to simmer vegis until very done. Do not over cover with water, or soup will be to thin.
When vegis are tender, scoop out about 2/3 of them with slotted spoon, and reserve in a bowl. Mash remainder in pan . . . .creating a creamy base. I also simmer this creamy mixture a little bit, before adding the chunkier vegis and ‘cream’ portion of this recipe. This 1 step really adds to the creamy nature of the soup.
In separate pan, melt butter, add flour to create a roux. It will be very thick and pasty, because this soup is extremely low fat. Whisk in milk, making a ‘gravy’. Add additional 2-3 tbl nutritional yeast and about 1 tsp bacuns to create a really hearty flavor. Salt and pepper to taste . . . It will need a good amount of salt.
Add gravy mixture to simmered pot of vegis.
(This is similar to adding ‘cream’ to the soup). Soup is complete, unless adding additional roasted potato cubes.
If adding roasted potatos - cube a couple of potatos, lightly spray with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast in oven, about 400 until brown. Set aside. Add potatos after the gravy has been added. The roasted cubes will initially float, but will settle into the soup as it sits. The roasted cubes of potatos are a nice touch. |
