CELERY-LEEK SOUP WITH POTATO AND PARSLEY



Celery-Leek Soup With Potato and Parsley image

This celery-forward soup is in essence a potato-leek soup that substitutes most of the potatoes with brighter celery, and skips the vast quantities of cream in the original, resulting in a lighter flavor and texture. Woodsy herbs like thyme and bay leaves, and fresh, raw parsley give the soup its intensely green, almost grassy taste. It's worth trying the soup without dairy, then admiring the transformative effect of a splash of crème fraîche or cream, which subdues the louder celery notes.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings (about 9 1/2 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 large leeks (about 10 ounces each), halved lengthwise, thinly sliced crosswise and cleaned (about 3 cups)
3 garlic cloves, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound celery (about 1 large bunch), leaves reserved, stalks trimmed, peeled and thinly sliced
1 large russet potato (about 12 ounces), peeled and roughly chopped
3 fresh bay leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1/4 cup dry white wine
7 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup chopped fresh parsley leaves, plus more for garnish
Crème fraîche or heavy cream, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat the 1/4 cup oil over medium. Add the leeks and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until meltingly tender, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the celery, potato, bay leaves and thyme, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the wine to deglaze, then cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost dry, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the stock and bring to boil over high. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until all the vegetables are fully tender and soft, about 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaves, then stir in 1 cup parsley leaves.
  • Working in two or three batches, transfer the soup to a blender and purée until smooth. (It's almost always beneficial to let the soup blend for another minute or two past what seems necessary to emulsify as much as possible.) Season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer to bowls. Drizzle with olive oil; garnish with reserved celery leaves and parsley, and sprinkle with pepper. Serve with a dollop of crème fraîche or a drizzle of heavy cream.

CELERY AND POTATO SOUP



Celery and Potato Soup image

This light puree is more celery than potato. The potato thickens the soup, a simple potage that is brought to life by the tiny amount of walnut oil that's drizzled onto each serving.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Time 1h

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1 large or 2 medium leeks, white and light green part only, cleaned and sliced
6 celery stalks, sliced (about 3/4 pound)
Kosher salt
1 medium-size russet potato, about 10 ounces, peeled and diced
4 garlic cloves, peeled and halved, green shoots removed
A bouquet garni made a bay leaf and a couple of sprigs each parsley and thyme, tied together
7 cups water or chicken stock
Freshly ground pepper
2 teaspoons walnut oil
1/4 cup very thinly sliced celery
chopped chives or chervil (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium-low heat, add the onion, leek, and celery, and cook gently, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, until very tender. Add 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt after the first 5 minutes. Make sure that the vegetables do not color.
  • Add the potatoes, garlic, and bouquet garni. Stir together and add the water or stock. Bring to a simmer, add salt to taste, cover and simmer 30 to 40 minutes, until the vegetables are very tender and the broth fragrant. Remove from the heat.
  • Remove the bouquet garni from the soup. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup (or you can put it through the fine blade of a food mill or use a regular blender, working in batches and placing a kitchen towel over the top to avoid splashing). Then strain through a medium strainer (this step is important; otherwise the soup will be stringy), using a pestle or the bottom of a ladle to push the soup through. Make sure to scrape the outside of the strainer so that all of the puree goes back into the soup. Return to the pot, stir with a whisk to even out the texture, heat through and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each bowl with a few thin slices of celery and about 1/4 teaspoon walnut oil. Sprinkle with minced chives or chervil if you wish, and serve.

Celery & Sweet Potato Soup w/Barley image

I made up a pot of this soup tonight for dinner 4/23/13 and it was delicious. My husband Anthony, my Mom & I all enjoyed the unique flavor of having sweet potato added into this veggie soup.

Categories     Other Soups

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 Tbsp olive oil
4 stalk(s) celery, coarsely chopped
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
3 clove garlic, minced
2 medium roasted sweet potatoes, peeled & diced
1 can(s) tomatoes, diced
1/2 c pearl barley, uncooked
6 c vegetable broth (i added 3 cups broth & 4 cups water)
SPICES
1 tsp oregano, dried leaves, crushed
1/2 tsp basil, dried leaves, crushed
1 - 2 Tbsp celery leaves, dried (optional)
2 tsp beau monde seasoning (optional)
1 tsp black pepper & salt

Steps:

  • 1. Drizzle oil into pot and set on STOVETOP HIGH. Heat oil for several minutes, then add celery & onion to pot. Cook them uncovered 10 minutes or until veggies are tender-crisp, stirring occasionally. Then stir in your minced garlic & cook uncovered 2 minutes, stirring often.
  • 2. Stir in your potatoes, spices, tomatoes & barley. Set to SLOW COOK HIGH FOR 4 TO 5 hours. Cover pot and cook until the barley & potatoes are tender. (The recipe in cookbook states to cook 4 to 5 hours but my soup was perfectly cooked at 3 hours. When I reheated it the next day and cooked it for another 45 minutes it was more the consistency of a thick stew instead of soup. So, for me I like it better at 3 hours but it's all in how you prefer your soup. I would watch it after 3 hour mark and determine what you want to do.)
  • 3. Serve up a bowl and sit down and enjoy. I served bacon wraps with this soup and they are so easy to make. Here is recipe. You can click on the link and it will take you to it. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/appetizer/meat-appetizer/bacon-wraps.html?p=27

HAM HOCK, SWEET POTATO & CELERY SOUP



Ham Hock, Sweet Potato & Celery Soup image

This tasty soup is easy to prepare in advance & freezes well. It's cheap to make, has low GI, is gluten & lactose free. Serve with oven warmed wholemeal bread rolls in big bowls. A winter warmer. Ham hocks rarely come much smaller that 1kg, so making a smaller quantity is hard to do. It also takes the same time to cook a large or small quantity, so I use it as a great time saver - with 4 adults in our house it provides one full meal for tonight & one full meal for for the freezer. If we're having a large dinner party, it easily provides 16 entre size servings. Control the fat content by cutting as much fat of the ham or bacon as you can manage. If you're really serious, allow the soup to cool & skim oil off the surface. Tastes even better when reheated.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 onion
1 diced celery
1 tablespoon butter
8 medium peeled and diced potatoes, any type
1 pint water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon parsley
1 pint low-fat milk

Steps:

  • Dice the onion and cook until soft in the butter. Add the diced celery and potato to the pot, add 1 pint water, or, better, just enough water to come up to the level of the vegetables. Bring to the boil, then simmer 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1 tablespoon parsley to the soup.
  • Add 1 pint low fat milk, or, better, enough to bring the liquid level to what seems reasonable to call a soup!
  • Simmer a further 5 minutes, but don't boil it!
  • Serve. You can microwave any leftovers.
