Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

Delicious recipes for red velvet cakes, cupcakes, and cheesecakes.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

I used ground cumin instead of messing with grinding the cumin seeds (even though I'm sure that would impart more flavor). I also used pre-julienned carrots instead of sliced so I had to guess at the amount but it worked well. I think the carrots cut that way cooked faster too. I also don't like white pepper so I used regular black pepper but that I DID freshly grind (it's best that way!). Served it hot but I think it would be really good cold with some cream stirred in.

This seemed too simple, with so few ingredients, but it was delicious. I added some semi-skimmed milk as some of the liquid, to make it creamier and sprinkled some flaked almonds on to serve, which added a nice crunchy texture.
I too agree that this is an excellent and EASY soup to prepare. I used chicken stock as I did not have any veggie.... found it to affect the taste midly. I used cumin powder as I did not have any seeds. Recommend this recipe!! RRR

This is terrific and EASY! I used Chicken Broth instead of veggie (just had it on hand) and added a little bit of whipping cream after pureed. It was yummy! it can be topped with pecans or a dollop of sour cream or herbs for presentation. It was a hit and helped me win a wine pairing contest! Good w/Sav Blanc.
