I like the color of beets. But I don't like eating beets. When I saw these deep purple carrots at the farmer's market, however, I immediately wanted to make purple carrot soup with them. And it turned out a beautiful dark purple. Maybe if I had done half parsnips and half purple carrots, I would have gotten a light purple soup. Is that too unappetizing?

I think it looks great! like a raspberry sauce. those would be good roasted.
Did anyone eat it? You made Theo eat it, didn't you?
Of course we ate it, and it was delicious. Theo doesn't eat real food yet, but someday I will make him eat it!
I made applesauce last week with Acane and red Jonathan apples. I didn't account for the fact that the red skin on the Jonathans made the applesauce very pink. The acane apples helped lighten it, but it's still a little weird to me, but it tastes great. Did this taste like your normal carrot soup? I think the deeper color is better.
I think light purple soup would be pretty. I say pretty food is generally delicious and therefore very appetizing. I think you just get into trouble when the food is a color resembling vomit or other bodily fluids. That's when it gets unappetizing.
