Chef's Note
A recipe from Josée Fiset, co-founder of Boulangerie Première Moisson
"To celebrate Valentine's Day with a splash, I created a red vegetable soup that reveals the beet in all its splendor.
"I like hearty soups, particularly in winter. If you prefer thinner soups, add a little more stock.
"Keep ginger root in the freezer. That way, it will be easier to grate, and there's no need to peel it."

- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 medium red onion, coarsely chopped

- 1-2 tsp. fresh ginger, grated
- salt and pepper, to taste
