Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs carrots, sliced
  • 1 medium sized onion, copped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 fresh eggs
  • To Taste:
    Cinnamon
    Nutmeg
    Ground cloves
    Horseradish
    Salt
    Pepper
  • Directions:

  • Sauté onions in 2 Tablespoons of butter until soft.
  • Add carrots and continue to cook until soft.
  • Keep on medium heat for 2 minutes, stirring. Add enough water to just cover the vegetables. Bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer.
  • Add maple syrup.
  • Put the soup through a food mill or mash with a potato masher until only partially mashed.
  • When soup is at desired consistency, prepare 2 egg yokes by whisking them in a separate bowl.
  • Temper by adding a spoonful of hot soup to the egg yolks, stir and add another spoonful of soup to the mixture. Continue until the mixture is mostly soup. Quickly add the yolks to the simmering soup, stir and take off the heat.
  • Garnish with chopped parsley, chives, and coarsely ground black pepper.
  • Serves 4 people
