Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Carrot Thyme Soup


vegetables, soups/stews, microwave

6 cup chicken stock
1 1/2 lb cut up carrots
1 each minced onion
3/4 each stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 tablespoon fresh minced thyme
1 nutmeg to taste

In a large saucepan combine the stock and the carrots, bring the stock to a boil, and simmer the carrots, covered, for 20 minutes, or until they are tender. In a food processor fitted with steel blades, puree the mixture in batches and force the puree through a food mill into another large saucepan. In a small skillet cook the onion in the butter over moderate heat, stirring for 3 minutes, or until it is softened. Add the onion to the saucepan with the cream, thyme, nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Bring soup to a boil, and simmer it for 5 minutes. Let the soup stand, covered, for 5 minutes to let the flavors blend, ladle it into a heated tureen.
