Alissa's curried yam soup

[greenfeline]

:D Yay! I have been nearly agonizing about making a raw sweet potato soup for fear it would be awful. I am so happy how Alissa' curried yam soup came out! It is so simple to make and delicious! I hope it keeps well overnight for my lunch tomorrow!

Thanks for the tip! Glad to hear it turned out so well. I haven't made it yet. In fact, I haven't made any raw soups yet. I'm scared of raw soup, LOL. I tried broccoli soup and just didn't like it at all.

I think I'll bite the bullet and try this one. :)

Ditto to what RFM said. I have some sweet potatoes waiting to be used. Thanks for the tip!

I'm afraid of trying anything with raw potatoes, or winter squashes in it for fear of it being "gritty". What did you use to blend it all?? Would I have to have a vitamix to get it really "soft", do you think I could use my juicer with my blank on get it ground up well??? Any tips??
I guess because I made a "butternut squash pie" (like pumpkin) but it never got "soft" and I really didn't like it....I want to make the pie again....and even a soup....but I would like it soft.
Thanks.

I would think that sweet potatos would mix up pretty good as it does not have the fibers that other things have. I will have to try this. I have it all in the house. sounds just like what i need to help this cold. Will warm it up a little bit in dehydrater. :D
I also made the broccoli soup and ended up cooking it so i did not have to waste it. That was before I decided to join the March stay Raw group. I did not care for the broccoli soup one bit. I do not like avacados either so have a hard time making anything with it in.

It was not gritty at all, perfectly creamy! I used my regular blender, not the food processor, and I think the nut milk helped too to make it creamy.
