Comment préparer Turnip And Pear Soup
- Melt butter or heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the diced turnips and pears to the pot. Stir in the thyme.
- Sauté for 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently, until the turnips and pears begin to soften.
- Pour in the vegetable broth or apple juice. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes, or until the turnips are very tender.
- Carefully transfer the soup to a blender (or use an immersion blender). Puree until smooth and creamy. If using a regular blender, vent the lid to prevent pressure buildup.
- Return the soup to the pot and season with black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve hot. Garnish with a dollop of crème fraîche, a sprinkle of fresh thyme, or a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
