  • 2 m.-sized carrot(s)
  • 1 celery root, half
  • 1 pointed pepper, red

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 20 minutes

for soups and sauces or as a spread or dip

Roughly chop the vegetables and place them in a blender with the herbs and salt, and process into a paste. Add a little oil a little at a time until the paste reaches the desired consistency. Pour the paste into a screw-top jar and store in the refrigerator. The salt helps preserve the paste. Tip: Mix a few teaspoons of the paste with 250g of softened butter and let it set in the refrigerator. This makes a delicious vegetable butter, for example, for grilling. For a dip, stir some vegetable paste into quark or yogurt.
