Directions
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, 1/3 cup water, tamari, lemon juice, ground cumin, and cayenne pepper until smooth and well combined. Set aside.
-
In a large pot, combine the vegetable stock and chopped carrots. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
-
Once boiling, reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 5 minutes to start softening the carrots.
-
Add the broccoli, leeks, tomatoes, and parsley to the pot.
-
Cover the pot again and return the liquid to a boil.
-
Immediately reduce the heat to low, keep covered, and simmer until all vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
-
Stir in the prepared tahini mixture gently but thoroughly until fully incorporated into the soup.
-
Heat the soup just until it simmers again (do not boil vigorously after adding tahini to prevent splitting).
-
Serve immediately while hot and creamy.
