Categories     Soup

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons olive oil, or butter
1 onion, diced
4 fat garlic cloves, rough chopped
6 cups celery, sliced thin (about 1 ¼-1 ½ pounds) 1 extra-large head, save some leaves for garnish
2 cups potatoes, sliced into ½ inch thick rounds ( about ¾ lb - 1 extra-large russet peeled, or use a few yukons, unpeeled.
4 cups veggie or chicken broth ( or 4 cups water + 1 tablespoon "Better than Bouillon" Vegetable Base)
1 cup water
1 bay leaf (optional, remove before blending)
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, start conservatively, add more to taste or leave it out entirely.
¼ cup fresh dill (small stems ok)
½ cup fresh parsley (small stems ok)
Stir in: ½ cup (or more) of sour cream, plain yogurt, vegan sour cream, heavy cream or cashew cream. (see notes)
Garnish: Crispy celery leaves, nigella seeds, hemp seeds (all optional, but delicious!)

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a big pot over medium-high heat and add the onion, stirring occasionally, letting the onions get golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and stir 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  • Add the celery, potatoes, broth, water, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and cayenne. The liquid should just cover the veggies ( if not, add a little more water). Cover, bring to a rolling boil, turn heat down and simmer gently until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Turn heat off, remove bay leaf and add the fresh herbs and just wilt them (don't cook herbs or you lose the vibrant color!)
  • Using an immersion blender blend until very silky smooth - OR if using a regular blender, let cool before blending in smaller batches. ( If blending warm soup, fill blender no more than halfway full, cover tightly with a lid and kitchen towel, holding it down firmly, when you start the motor (on the lowest setting, working up gradually) to prevent a blender "explosion").
  • Blend well, a full minute, until herbs are fully blended, creating a vibrant colored soup. For extra "green" color, add a handful of raw baby spinach if you like, or more fresh parsley.
  • Place it back in the same pot over low heat. Stir in your choice of sour cream, or any of the other options. Gently heat, careful to not over-simmer, or you may lose the lovely vibrant color.
  • To make the crispy celery leaves, heat a generous amount of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Wait until the oil is hot. Fry a "tester" celery leaf for 10-20 seconds on each side. Set on a paper towel. If it is crisp, continue on. Adding a few at a time, not overly crowding. If not crisp, fry them a little longer. You want about 3-5 leaves per serving bowl. In the same oil, you could fry the nigella seeds until you just begin to hear popping. Turn heat off. Arrange the crispy celery leaves in a crescent shape. Spoon a little of the nigella seeds along with a little oil in the same shape. Sprinkle with hemp seeds if you like.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh celery: The fresher the celery, the better the soup will taste. Look for celery that is bright green and crisp, with no wilted leaves.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't just stick to celery! Adding other vegetables like carrots, onions, and potatoes will give your soup more flavor and depth.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with seasonings: Celery soup is a blank canvas for flavor. Try adding different herbs and spices, like thyme, rosemary, garlic, or black pepper, to taste.
  • Garnish with something special: A simple garnish can really elevate a bowl of celery soup. Try topping it with fresh herbs, croutons, or a dollop of sour cream.

Conclusion:

Celery soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed all year round. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and healthy meal, give celery soup a try!
