1 T. olive oil
\n6 scallions, thinly sliced (1 cup)
\n1 large clove garlic, minced
\n3 C. canned tomatoes, coarsely chopped with their juice
\n1 cup carrot juice
\n3\/4 tsp. salt
\n1\/2 tsp. ground cumin
\n1\/4 tsp. ground ginger
\n1\/4 tsp. pepper
\n1\/2 cup evaporated milk (using evaporated skim milk might also work and cut some fat and calories, but I haven’t figured the alternate yet since I haven’t tried it)<\/p>\n
In medium saucepan, heat oil over low heat. Add scallions and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes and their juice, cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until lightly thickened. Stir in carrot juice, salt, cumin, ginger, and pepper. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until flavors have blended. Stir in evaporated milk and cook just until heated through about 1 minute longer; do not boil.<\/p>\n

There’s no point in cooking with pale, tasteless midwinter tomatoes, but this recipe is meant to be made with canned tomatoes, which are richly flavorful and “in season” all year. If you like, stir a small handful of chopped fresh basil or snipped chives into the soup at serving time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1745","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-soups-stews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1745"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1745\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
