Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel and chop the carrots into 2-inch chunks. Quarter the yellow onions.
  2. Combine the chopped carrots, quartered onions, parsley sprigs, whole cloves, and rosemary in a large saucepan.
  3. Add the condensed chicken broth to the saucepan, ensuring all vegetables are submerged.
  4. Cover the saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.
  5. Simmer gently for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the carrots are very soft and tender.
  6. Remove the saucepan from heat. Discard the whole cloves, parsley sprigs, and rosemary.
  7. Carefully puree the hot mixture in batches using a blender, starting at low speed to avoid steam pressure buildup.
  8. Return the pureed soup to the saucepan. Stir in the milk and black pepper.
  9. Heat the soup over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes until warmed through.
  10. Ladle the hot soup into bowls and garnish each portion with minced fresh parsley.
