The sweet butter and the sweet leeks and the sweet carrots… Sweet!

Do not let anything caramelize on the bottom. This is not an earthy, hearty soup. This is a smooth, rich soup.

Yes, there is a lot of butter in the recipe. So don’t eat the whole pot at once. It works out to two teaspoons in a pint, which is a normal portion of soup with an extra bit of sin thrown in.

“But there’s no cream in the Creamy Carrot Soup!” you exclaim. Hush now, and make the recipe.
