Honey Tips
Honey Is Magic
In the days before biology and botany were understood, people thought it was a special kind of magic that turned flower nectar into honey.
Directions
In a large saucepan, heat butter and olive oil. Add onions and sauté over low heat until soft. Add carrots, apples and curry powder. Cook for a few minutes, stirring well. Add chicken stock, cloves and honey. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until carrots are tender, about 50 minutes. Discard cloves. Add lemon juice. In a blender, puree soup in batches, until smooth. Garnish with chives. Serve hot or cold. Serves 8-10.
