Foamy Carrot Cream Soup

Peel the onion and chop it finely. Scrape the carrots and slice them into barely half-centimeter thick pieces.

Melt the butter in a pot, add the onion, and sauté over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for two to three minutes until softened (but not browned).

Add the carrots, sprinkle with sugar, slightly increase the heat, and continue stirring for about five minutes until the carrots soften slightly. Pour in the boiling broth, cold whipping cream from the carton, bring to a gentle boil, and simmer slowly for 10-15 minutes until the carrots are completely soft.
