Roasted Carrot Soup

  1. Preheat the oven to 450F.
  2. Cut the onion into 8 wedges (keep the root end intact to hold the layers together).
  3. Toss the onion, carrots, endive, oil, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  4. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, and spread in a single layer.
  5. Roast the vegetables, turning occasionally, until the edges are deep golden brown, about 30 minutes.
  6. Cut off the root end from the onion.
  7. Transfer all vegetables to a large saucepan, and add the bay leaf.
  8. Add enough stock to just cover (about 2 cups).
  9. Bring to a simmer, and cook until the carrots are very soft, about 30 minutes.
  10. Let cool slightly, and discard the bay leaf.
  11. Puree the vegetables and stock in a blender until smooth (work in batches, if necessary, to avoid filling blender more than halfway).
  12. Transfer the puree to a clean pan; place over low heat.
  13. Stir in the cream; add stock to thin the soup to desired consistency.
  14. Season with salt and pepper; stir in the ginger.
  15. If desired, pipe creme fraiche onto each serving, or place a dollop on top.
