Red Velvet Soup Recipes

RED VELVET

Steps:

• In a champagne flute or coupe glass, mix the champagne and lambic. Garnish with a raspberry or two and serve immediately.

RED VELVET SOUP

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add vegetables and cook, stirring often, until softened (10 minutes). Stir in stock, paprika and sugar, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes. Purée in batches in the blender. Strain through a sieve or pass through a food mill into a large bowl to remove any remaining bits of pepper skin. Stir in lemon juice, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and chill 4 hours or overnight. Taste and add more seasoning if desired.

WHITE VELVET SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 3 1/2-quart Dutch oven medium-high heat. Add the parsnips, celery, fennel, onion, salt and fennel seeds. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Add 4 cups water and the bay leaf to the pan, and stir. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover with a lid. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are very soft. Allow to cool slightly.
• Puree the soup in two batches, adding half of the almond milk to each batch. Return the soup to the Dutch oven, and heat to warm through--alternatively, pour the soup into a slow cooker and keep warm on the low setting. Serve garnished with bacon, Parmesan and Pomegranate Gremolata.
• In a bowl, mix together the parsley, pomegranate seeds, lemon zest and salt.

RED VELVET CAKE V

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan. Sift together the flour, cocoa and baking powder; set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition. Add the flour mixture alternately with the milk. Mix well then stir in the vanilla and red food coloring.
• Pour batter into a 10 inch Bundt pan. Bake for 60 to 90 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.

RED VELVET TRIFLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, then spray lightly with cooking spray.
• Combine cake mix, water, oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter into the prepared pan and smooth to even out.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• When the cake is almost cooled, whisk milk and pudding mix together for 2 minutes. Let sit until set, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cut the cooled cake into 1-inch cubes.
• Place 1/2 of the cake cubes in the bottom of an 8-inch trifle bowl. Layer with 1/2 of the pudding and 1/2 of the cherry pie filling. Repeat layers once more. Refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours before serving.
• Garnish with whipped cream.
