Chef Tips

- Strain the orange juice to retain seeds and fibrous pulp before pouring into the hot broth in the pot. - Choose sweet and ripe oranges, such as the pear orange or bahia orange, to avoid excessive acidity in the cream. - Cut the carrots into very thin slices to reduce the boiling time to about 15 to 20 minutes.

Variations

- Add 1 teaspoon of fine orange zest over the finished soup to intensify the citrus perfume. - Add 1 pinch of cumin powder or ground cilantro during the carrot sauté to bring oriental notes. - Place 1 tablespoon of toasted black sesame seeds in the bowl to provide visual contrast and crunch.

Substitutions

- The vegetable broth can be replaced by filtered water with bay leaves and fresh celery stalks. - The olive oil can be swapped for 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter for a richer finish. - The pear orange can be replaced by freshly squeezed ponkan tangerine keeping the same measure of juice.

How to Store

Store in a tightly closed glass container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Citrus acidity helps with preservation, but it is advisable to heat only the portion that will be served to maintain the fruit's aromatic balance.

Can You Freeze It?

It can be frozen in airtight containers for up to 60 days. When thawing over low heat, stir well with a whisk to reincorporate the aqueous phase and return the velvety homogeneity to the carrot cream.

What to Serve With

Pairs very well with thin slices of toasted ciabatta, roasted yuca chips, or cubed fresh Minas cheese. It also goes well with a dark leafy green salad with olive oil or cold mint water.
