Yield 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 Tbs. unsalted butter
6 cups thinly sliced celery (reserve 1/4 cup celery leaves)
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
Kosher salt
3 cups peeled, small-diced celery root
6 cups lower-salt chicken broth

Add the celery root and stir to coat with the butter. Pour in the chicken broth, and then add the thyme, bay leaf, and 1/2 tsp. salt.
