3 Chopped Green Onions (Green Part Only) 3 Garlic Cloves, Minced 4 1/2 C. Chicken Stock 1 1/2 tsp. Dried Thyme 2 TBS. Chopped Fresh Parsley 4 TBS. Butter 3 TBS. Flour 2 tsp. Kosher Salt 2 tsp. White Pepper 3 Sliced Carrots 2 1/2 Lb. Cubed Potatoes
Cooking Instructions
1. First we will start with the roux. Add 4 Tablespoons of butter or margarine to a large pot and melt the butter on medium low. Now add 3 tablespoons of All-Purpose flour and mix it well with a wooden spoon. Keep stirring constantly for about 5 minutes. Doing this will cook out the raw taste of the flour and in return give you a base thickener for your soup.

3. Add the carrots, garlic, potatoes, thyme, parsley and 2/3 of the green onions and simmer for 20 minutes.
4. Stir in 2 teaspoons of kosher salt and 2 teaspoons of white pepper. Simmer for 5 more minutes.
5. Serve and garnish with the rest of the chopped green onions.
