Ingredients
3 cups sliced carrots
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped parsley (you can include the stems)
2 cups chopped green onions (green parts only)
12 ounces broccoli, cut up small
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped parsley (you can include the stems)
2 cups chopped green onions (green parts only)
12 ounces broccoli, cut up small

1 tablespoon shredded daikon radish, added just before serving
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Sauté the carrots in the olive oil for 10 minutes,
Step 2
Then add the other vegetables and spices. Heat and stir for 1 minute.
Step 3
Next add 12 cups of water and bring
the mixture to a boil, stirring as needed. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
Step 4
Just before eating, add one tablespoon of freshly shredded daikon radish per serving. Uncooked daikon contains a very special enzyme called myrosinase, which enhances the nutritional value of cooked broccoli.
Step 5
Or, if you like, allow the soup to cool and puree it to a creamy consistency, then reheat it before serving. The daikon should always be added just before eating.
