For a richer flavor, consider roasting the carrots before boiling. Toss them with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized. If fresh dill and chives are unavailable, you can substitute with dried herbs. Use approximately 2 teaspoons of dried dill and 2 teaspoons of dried chives, adding them to the soup during the simmering stage to allow their flavors to infuse. Adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired consistency. For a thicker soup, use less milk; for a thinner soup, add more. A pinch of nutmeg adds a lovely warmth to this soup.
