SOUP...again?!?

To stay in theme, a very nice soup for the fall season came in my mind.
My teacher Melanie Ferreira at the Academy of Healing and Nutrition taught me how to make it.....
it's deliciously healthy!
It contains MISO, that is a powerful probiotic made with fermented barley or rice, and
LOTUS ROOT, that is a good ingredient to strenghten your lungs during the cold season.





AUTUMNAL SOUP

Ingredients:

1TBS sesame oil
1 leek
1 carrot
1 cup butternut
1/2 fennel
1/2 lotus root or, if you can't find it, 1/2 daiqon
6 cups water
2 TBS barley miso
1 tsp ginger juice
parsley or watercress

Rince and slice thick all vegetables.
Heat sesame oil in a soup pot and add all the vegetables.
Saute' till translucent, then add water and bring to boil.
Let it simmer for 20 minutes.
After you switch off put a strainer in the broth and stir in the miso using a spoon.
Grate a small piece of ginger and squeez the juice with your hand.
Garnish with parsley.

The next day you can blend the left over to make a nice creamy soup.
