RECIPE: Summer Cream Of Celery Soup

Now that I've learned of the power of celery root, here's a recipe for celery soup. Soups are always simple and fun to make. This is a great lazy dinner night recipe. Serve with a slice of olive bread and a field green salad.

  • 3 quarts chicken stock
  • 3 pounds celery, coarsely chopped
  • 1/2 pound carrots, julienned
  • 1/2 pound onions, chopped
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 3 quarts hot milk
  • 1 cup butter
    1. Pour the chicken stock into a large pot, and bring to a boil. Add the celery, carrots and onion to the pot.
    2. Whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, and milk; add to the pot along with the butter.
    3. Boil for 10 minutes, then strain out the vegetables by pouring through a sieve, or if the vegetables are large enough, a colander may be used.
