The recipe below, for a Thai coconut milk soup with sweet potatoes, can be found in the Sweet Potatoes edition by Scott Hocker. This soup is both luxurious and comforting, for those times when your heart and body need tending. It's a smooth-blended soup with a touch of spice and velvety texture that can only be found in coconut milk, celebrating the parade of flavors that Thai food strives for: sweet, salty, tart, and sour. They're all here, dancing joyfully. Cilantro roots (which you can see in the images in this post) can be found at farmers markets and Asian groceries, but if you can't find them, substitute 1/3 cup coarsely-chopped cilantro stems.
