Chilled Celery Soup - The Couch Cook
Celery is one of the many versatile vegetables that can be prepared in many delicious and healthy ways! In this video I demonstrate one of my favourite uses of the celery by making a healthy & refreshing chilled celery soup! This is a must try!!
Ingredients:
6 cups - celery, chopped
4 clove - garlic, smashed
1 leek, rinsed and chopped
2 tbsp - butter
1 medium potato, peeled and sliced
2 cups - chicken stock
3 cups - water
1/2 tsp - celery salt
To Taste - Salt
To Taste - White Wine Vinegar
Garnish:
Dollop, creme fraiche or sour cream
Celery leaves
Celery salt
EVOO
1. Melt butter in medium sauce pot or dutch oven.
2. Sweat celery, leek and garlic until translucent, NOT caramelized.
3. Add sliced potato and season with celery salt, sweat briefly.
4. Add chicken stock and water, bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Continue to cook until the potato is tender and cooked through, try not to over cook the potato (it will leave a slightly granular texture).
5. Blend soup in a high powered blender and strain through a fine mesh sieve.
6. Cool soup down to fridge temperature and then season with salt and white wine vinegar to your preferred taste.
7. Garnish with creme fraiche, celery salt and celery leaves to finish.
