In a large stock pot combine broth, carrots, bay leaf and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce and simmer for 15 minutes or until carrots are tender.
Meanwhile, sauté onions and garlic in a skillet with the butter until tender. Add mustard and coriander seeds stirring for another minute, then pour in sherry and cook until it evaporates. Scrape mixture into the stock pot.
Remove bay leaf, add 1/3 cup pine nuts then puree mixture using an immersion blender or food processor until smooth. Bring soup back to a simmer, seasoning to taste with salt and pepper.
Mix together the topping ingredients, set aside.
To serve, ladle soup in bowls then drizzle in some of the topping mixture and reserved nuts into each.
