Time 10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, sliced
Kosher salt
1 bunch celery, chopped
1 small celery root (about 12 ounces), peeled and chopped
1 bay leaf
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup mixed fresh herbs (such as parsley, tarragon and/or dill)
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
Celery Leaves
Celery Salt
Cooked prosciutto
Toasted sliced almonds
Fried leeks

Steps:

  • Melt the butter with the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened but not browned, about 4 minutes. Add the celery, celery root and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the celery is tender, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the bay leaf, chicken broth and 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook until the celery root is very soft, about 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaf. Add the heavy cream and return to a simmer, then remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
  • Working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth, adding some herbs to each batch; return to the pot and reheat if needed. Stir in the celery salt and serve with toppings.

This soup was a disappointment. I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out watery and flavorless. I tried adding more salt and pepper, but it didn't help. I ended up throwing the whole pot away.

This soup was a lifesaver! I was feeling under the weather and needed something warm and comforting. This soup hit the spot perfectly. It was easy to make and so delicious. I will definitely be making this again when I'm feeling sick.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I think I needed to add more salt and pepper, or maybe some other spices. It was still a good soup, but I think it could have been better with a little more flavor.

I'm not a huge soup person, but this cream of celery soup was surprisingly good. It had a nice, light flavor that wasn't too heavy or creamy. I added a bit of cayenne pepper for a little kick, and it was perfect. Will definitely make this again.

This soup was an absolute delight! I've never been a huge fan of celery, but this soup completely changed my mind. The combination of celery, onions, and cream created a velvety smooth and flavorful broth that was incredibly comforting. I added a tou
