Ingredients
Scale
Herbs and Spices
- 1 bunch of parsley
- 4 sprigs of fresh thyme or 2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp Atlantic dulse flakes
- 1 inch ginger root, finely chopped
Vegetables
- 3 lb bag sweet potatoes or 4–5 large sweet potatoes, cubed
- 1 bunch of celery, diced
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 6 large garlic cloves
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Wash and cube the sweet potatoes, dice the celery and onion, finely chop the ginger, and peel and crush the garlic cloves.
- Add to Pot: Place all the chopped vegetables, herbs (parsley, thyme), turmeric powder, dulse flakes, and ginger into a large soup pot.
- Cook Soup: Bring the mixture to a good boil over medium-high heat. Then reduce the heat to a low simmer, cover the pot, and cook for about one hour, allowing the flavors to meld and the sweet potatoes to soften.
- Remove Thyme Twigs: After cooking, remove and discard any large thyme stems to avoid overly woody texture.
- Blend the Soup: Carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until mostly smooth. You can adjust the consistency to your liking by blending more or less.
- Serve: Pour into mugs or bowls and enjoy warm as a nourishing meal or snack.
Notes
- This soup is vegetarian, gluten-free, and low-fat.
- For a creamier soup, blend longer or add a splash of vegetable broth if needed.
- Atlantic dulse flakes can be found at health food stores and add a subtle sea mineral flavor, but they can be omitted if unavailable.
- Sweet potatoes provide a natural sweetness and rich beta-carotene content that supports thyroid function.
- Store leftover soup in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
