preparation
1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil then add in the carrots, celery, turnips, sweet potato, garlic, scallions, and ginger. Saute for about 5-10 minutes then add flour and mix well. Next, add the soy sauce, broth and water and mix well. Bring to a boil, reduce heat then let simmer for 45 minutes or until all the vegetables have softened. In a separate saucepan, heat the cream and milk. Use your immersion blender* to blend all the ingredients together. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped scallions. Makes 8 cups.
Cooks' note:
If you do not have an immersion blender, simply pour the mixture into a regular blender and puree until smooth. Just be very careful not to fill it too much to the top as it will be extremely hot and you don't want to pop the lid off of your blender.
