18 Carrot, medium, peeled and chopped
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil, divided (15 mL)
Yellow Onion, medium, diced
3 stalks Celery, chopped
4 Garlic, cloves, minced
4 cups Organic Vegetable Broth (1 liter)

do i fry the coriander seed powder to 'bloom it'.if so can i add abit of water to the poiwder before frying as im scared of burning it and how long would i fry it for?thank you demetra the advice is really helping me.
Jack—often time, lemon can layer the flavors equally as well as salt. If you are looking for salt, a dash or two would do well. Give it a try without the salt—it’s a great recipe. Char
Hi Jack: a good substitute for tahini would be almond butter or sun nut butter--using coconut milk would change the flavor tremendously. The nut butters mentioned have neutral flavors--and their textures resemble tahini. Hope this helps. Char
Hi Raiz—I am not seeing ground coriander in this recipe. Generally, you want to “toast” the coriander powder in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly. After about two minutes—remove the skillet and pour ingredients into a small bowl so they do not continue cooking. Thx. Char
