Parsnip Soup Recipe

Soup Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Ingredients

   Peel and chop the parsnips into small chunks. Dice the onion and mince the garlic.

2. 2

   Sauté the Aromatics

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

3. 3

   Cook the Parsnips

   Add the chopped parsnips to the pot and stir to combine with the onion and garlic. Cook for another 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Add Broth and Seasoning

   Pour in the vegetable broth, and add salt and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 20 minutes or until the parsnips are tender.

5. 5

   Blend the Soup

   Once the parsnips are cooked, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can carefully transfer it to a blender in batches.

6. 6

   Stir in the Apple Koji Milk

   Return the blended soup to the pot (if you used a blender) and stir in the apple koji milk. Heat over low heat until warmed through.

7. 7

   Prepare Tahini

   In a small bowl, mix the tahini with a little water to thin it out, creating a drizzle consistency.

8. 8

   Serve the Soup

   Ladle the parsnip soup into bowls, drizzle with the caramelized tahini, and garnish with torn nori sheets.
