Place the carrot, pear, onion and celery in a medium saucepan, cover and
cook over low heat until the onion is translucent. Stir in flour, if
desired. Add chicken broth, thyme, bay leaf and cinnamon stick and bring to
a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until carrots are just tender. Remove bay
leaf and cinnamon stick.
In 2 or 3 batches, puree the mixture in a blender or food processor until
smooth. Return to sauce pan and season to taste. Stir in cream and butter
if desired. Reheat and serve immediately.
NOTES : Chef Jonathan Clarke was happy to share the recipe for his
delicious Carrot and Pear Soup. A perfect starter for fall meals, Carrot
and Pear Soup is quick and easy to put together. Clarke reminds us not to
overcook this soup, as the flavor will deteriorate.
