1.5 Pounds of Carrots

I often order from the Soup Peddler. I like the food because they often use what is local and in season. They cook turnips, kale, quinoa and lots of other things you seldom get to order out along with staples like macaroni and cheese. Yum.

Last week, the Soup Peddler was offering Carrot and Tahini Soup following a NY Times recipe. I thought I would be crazy to order such a thing given that I have 2.5 lbs of carrots in my fridge. This recipe uses 1.5 lbs. Awesome. It made a huge dent in the carrot pile. We liked it even better than the last carrot soup, but the cayenne made it too spicy for young tongues.
