Market Vegetable Soup Preparation

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large kettle over medium-high heat. Add next 9 ingredients (carrots – marjoram), cover & cook until vegetables begin to soften, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add potatoes & enough broth to barely cover vegetables (don”t get fooled by their floating). Cover & bring to boil, skimming surface occasionally. Reduce heat, cover partially, & simmer 45 minutes, skimming surface occasionally. Puree half of the vegetables in a blender until smooth. Mix puree back into remaining soup. Puree more vegetables if soup is too thin. Add 1 cup milk, nutmeg & pepper and bring to boil. Add more broth or milk if too thick. *** Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cool, cover & refrigerate. Rewarm before continuing. Sprinkle greens atop soup. Cover & simmer until greens wilt, about 4 minutes. Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Ladle soup into bowls. Serve, passing additional pepper separately. Posted to MC-Recipe Digest V1 #288 Date: Sat, 09 Nov 1996 16:43:43 GMT From: bearhair@ripco.DELETE.com (Bearhair)
