A SOUP OF CELERY AND BLUE CHEESE



A Soup of Celery and Blue Cheese image

Long associated with the finale of the Christmas meal, Stilton and celery is a fine combination and there is every reason to turn it into a soup. I'm not sure it matters which blue cheese you use but the saltier types tend to be more interesting here. A good Stilton will work well enough, but something with more punch-say Picos, Roquefort, Stichelton, or Cashel Blue-would get my vote, as would good old Danish Blue. Cream is usually a given with celery soup, but I am not sure you need it.

Yield enough for 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

celery - a large head
an onion
celery root - half a head, about 9 ounces (250g)
butter - a thick slice
chicken stock - 4 cups (a liter)
a bay leaf
blue cheese - 4 1/2 ounces (125g)

Steps:

  • Give the celery stalks a really good wash, then chop them coarsely. Peel and coarsely chop the onion and celery root.
  • Melt the butter in a deep pan, add the chopped vegetables, and let them cook for about twenty minutes, until soft. Pour in the stock, add the bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Season with salt (remember that you will be adding a salty blue cheese later), then decrease the heat to a simmer, and leave for half an hour, stirring occasionally.
  • Purée the soup in a blender or food processor until really smooth. It may need a little longer than most other vegetables. Check the seasoning and ladle into warm soup bowls. Crumble the cheese into the soup at the table and stir until it is partially melted.

Time 1h

2 sticks butter

1 pinch salt, or as desired

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium low heat. Add the onions and saute for 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
  • Add the celery and the water. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until celery is soft.
  • Add 2 1/2 ounces of the Stilton cheese to the soup and mix well. Puree the soup in small batches in a blender or food processor and transfer it to a clean pot. Season with freshly ground pepper and salt to taste. Stilton can be very salty, so beware!
  • Pour into individual bowls, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and garnish with the watercress.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Celery: Use fresh, crisp celery with vibrant green stalks for the best flavor and texture. Avoid limp or discolored celery.
  • Slice the Celery Thinly: Thinly slicing the celery allows it to cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the soup more effectively.
  • Sauté the Celery: Sautéing the celery in butter or olive oil before adding it to the soup enhances its flavor and gives it a slightly caramelized texture.
  • Use a Good Quality Blue Cheese: Opt for a flavorful and pungent blue cheese, such as Roquefort, Gorgonzola, or Stilton, to add depth and complexity to the soup.
  • Don't Overcook the Blue Cheese: Avoid boiling the soup after adding the blue cheese, as excessive heat can cause the cheese to lose its flavor and become grainy.
  • Season to Taste: Adjust the seasoning of the soup with salt, pepper, and additional herbs or spices as desired.
  • Garnish Elegantly: Top the soup with crumbled blue cheese, chopped celery leaves, or a drizzle of olive oil for an elegant presentation.
