Honey Tips
Honey Is One of the Oldest Foods
Honey is one of the oldest foods in existence. It was found in the tomb of King Tut and was still edible since honey never spoils.
Directions
Heat oil in a large pot. Add carrots, onion and garlic. Sauté 6 minutes or until onion is translucent. Add broth, honey and whole cloves. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until carrots are soft, about 20-30 minutes. Remove cloves and discard.
Using an immersion blender or regular blender, puree soup until smooth. If using a blender, return soup to pot. Mix in lemon juice and half and half. Heat soup before serving. Do not boil.
Serves: 4
