Lotus in a Sea of Fire

I’ve been craving a consommé like this one for a few hours now, and I found this recipe on the CIA’s website. (Actually, I’m pretty sure The Black Sheep in Richmond (Virginia) used this exact recipe once when I ordered their carrot and ginger consommé. I think they only thing they left out were the bean thread noodles.)Anyway, I’d recommend pairing this with something a little sweeter to offset the spice, maybe a Riesling or Gewurtzraminer.
Carrot Consommé with Lemongrass, Ginger, Spicy Grilled Shrimp, and Bean Thread
I’ll probably leave out the shrimp when I make it. (I just don’t see the point, I’ll add a little extra pepper and it’ll be a super, delicious, lung-decongesting consommé to keep around in the freezer for when a cold starts to take control.)

Reblogging myself again. Sorry.
