Chilled Carrot and Orange Soup Recipe

Its been really hot where I live lately, and when its hot, there usually is one pervading theme in how I live my life- how can I cool down most? This attempt to cool down affects what I do, where I go, and what I drink, and especially what I eat. There are some people who are happy eating hearty stews and hot soups on those torrid summer nights, but I? No way. I want soup, yes, but I want chilled soups. So refreshing when it's hot outside!
The other day I was looking for some chilled soup ideas, had a bunch of carrots in the fridge that I got in an amazing sale- for only 3 cents a pound! and found this recipe. I played around with the recipe until I got something easier to make, and used the ingredients I had in my house. The end result was so amazing that I've made it 4 times since then. I not only serve this as an appetizer for meals, I also sometimes just drink it straight from a glass. It certainly hits the spot!
For those of you who aren't cumin fans, I recommend you try this one out anyhow as the cumin is barely noticeable in the recipe.

Chilled Carrot and Orange Soup Recipe

Ingredients:
1 medium onion
1 tablespoon oil (I use sunflower. Use any non powerfully flavored oil that will stay liquid when chilled- no palm oil, coconut oil, or animal fats will work for this recipe.)
2 teaspoons cumin
5 large or 7 small carrots
1/4-1/2 cup celery, stalks and leaves, not chopped (If using just leaves, use only 1/4 cup)
6 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup orange juice, freshly squeezed or reconstituted from concentrate
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon dried dill or 3 tablespoons fresh dill

Instructions:
1. Chop the onions and saute them in the oil until golden.

2. Add the cumin and fry for about a minute.

3. Slice the carrots thinly, then add them to the onions. Saute for a minute.

4. Add the water, celery, and salt to the onion/carrot mixture, and bring to a boil. Boil until the carrots and celery are soft.

5. Remove as much celery as you can from the mix. I usually just eat that celery straight.

6. Blend up the carrots, onions, and liquid.

7. Add orange juice, lemon juice, and dill.

8. Chill for a few hours.

Serve ice cold.
