Sally's Radish Soup
- 4 bunches red radishes (approximately 12 radishes per bunch)
- 2 medium onions, cut into large pieces
- 42 ounces chicken broth
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 6 tablespoons flour
- 4 cups half-and-half cream or 4 cups light cream
- 6 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 12 teaspoon white pepper
- 3 tablespoons horseradish sauce (I use Heinz)
- Clean the radishes (cut off the tops and the bottoms and wash them) and place them in a large saucepan.
- Add the onions.
- Pour the chicken broth over them and simmer for 35 minutes.
- Let the contents of the saucepan cool slightly and then puree in a blender.
- (You'll have to do this in batches - it won't all fit at once.)
- Transfer the puree to a large bowl and cover it to keep it warm.
- Put the large saucepan back on the burner.
- Melt the butter on medium heat and sprinkle in the flour.
- Stir until bubbles appear.
- Keep stirring and cooking for one minute.
- Add the Half & Half (or light cream) and cook, stirring frquently, until mixture has thickened.
- This should take about 5 minutes or so.
- Add Worcestershire sauce, salt, white pepper, and horseradish sauce.
- Then add the radish puree and stir throughly.
- Return to the heat and stir until heated through.
- If you want to get fancy, get a few extra radishes, slice them very thinly, and float them on top of the soup bowls.
- You can also add fresh, minced parsley for color.
