Sopas remind me of my grandmother. She made the most amazing soups I’ve ever had. I remember watching her whip up a soup with whatever was on hand and always being thrilled by the taste of it. Her touch seemed to bring the ingredients to life. This particular carrot soup is hearty, satisfying, and heartwarming. It’s a soup I started making long after my abuela passed, but I’d like to think that she would have enjoyed this simple sopa immensely.
