Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cups white onions, chopped
5 whole star anise
2 bay leaves
1 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 lb organic carrots, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces
4 cups fresh stock
6 chives, stems minced
salt, to taste
white pepper, to taste

Directions:
In large stock pot over medium heat melt the butter. Add chopped onion, 3 star anise, bay leaves and garlic. Saute until the onion starts to soften and glisten, about 5 minutes.
Add the carrots and fresh stock. Cover, bring to boil and simmer until carrots are very tender, approximately 30 minutes.
Remove star anise and bay leaves. Using an immersion blender puree the soup until very smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Take the remaining star anise and grind to a fine powder. Stir a little into the soup. Adjust seasoning and add more star anise to taste. Stir in the fresh minced chives.
Serve hot.
