Notes
- Make sure you thinly slice the carrots. Otherwise, it may take longer than 5 hours to cook the soup- I prefer rice water in place of veggie broth. Use your choice of broth or even coconut water will do the trick- The video shows that the artichoke is roughly chopped. Hopefully, you don't make the same mistake I made. Be sure to dice artichoke finely before adding to the soup
