Seasonal Cooking – Cream Lentil Soup with Goldsap Parsnips

Seasonal foods contain a large number of foods, they are cheap and, above all, taste better because they are harvested at the optimal time. If you want to eat seasonal vegetables in the winter time, you can’t avoid pastries. Parsnips belong to the root vegetable family and can usually be picked fresh from September to March. They look like a yellow-brown carrot, have a mild, nutty flavor and are the perfect base for a creamy soup. The Grafschafter Krautfabrik has therefore developed a delicious recipe for hot, toasted slow soup with parsnips, suitable for the season. This soup is suitable not only for the winter, as the root vegetables are very well preserved, so that they can also be enjoyed in spring and summer. In this soup, Grafschafter combines the vegetable proteins of red lentils with the nutty flavor of parsnips. It is topped with specially caramelized cubed pastry, which is roasted in Grafschafter Goldsaft.

Delicious soup is the ideal soul warmer for cold days. To fill yourself up, you need a healthy portion of protein. That’s why red lentils are one of the basic building blocks of the cream soup in this Grafschafter recipe. Carrots, celery, parsnips and Grafschafter Goldsaft bring the delicious taste.

With a little patience and fresh ingredients, you can easily conjure up a delicious, creamy soup. Cooking training is not a prerequisite, as this recipe is really doable for everyone. The vegetables should be cut into small pieces and then fried along with the lentils, some spices and Grafschafter Goldsaft. The combination of parsnips and golden juice gives the soup a sweet taste with a light nutty aroma. Then the pot should only be poured with strong vegetable broth and the ingredients can boil until they are done. Meanwhile you can prepare the delicious topping: fried pastinas golden brown, refined with thyme, lemon and Grafschafter Goldsaft. The caramelization of the pastinas gives them a wonderfully sweet roasted aroma, which in combination with the finished soup makes a real sweet.
