Ingredients

  • •1 cup Pomona Organic Beet Juice
  • •2 cups peeled Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • •1/2 cup diced yellow onion
  • •2 cups vegetable broth
  • •1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • •1/4 cup heavy cream
  • •1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • •1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned.

  2. 2

    Add the potatoes, broth, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, for 15–18 minutes, until the potatoes are very tender.

  3. 3

    Stir in the beet juice and heat gently for 2–3 minutes. Remove from the heat and blend with an immersion blender until smooth.

  4. 4

    Stir in the cream and dill. Return to low heat just until warmed through, without boiling. Taste and adjust the salt before serving.

Recipe tip: For a thinner soup, stir in extra broth 1/4 cup at a time after blending. If using a countertop blender, blend in small batches with the lid vented according to the manufacturer's instructions.
