A recipe so simple, even a child can make it. We still enjoy this soup very much.

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 kg celeriac
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 onions
  • 25 g unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 chicken stock cubes
  • 1.25 l tap water
  • 2 Conference pears
  • 125 ml fresh cream
  • 30 g parsley
  • 6 tbsp traditional olive oil
  • 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Directions:

Peel the celeriac and cut into 2-inch pieces. Finely chop the garlic and cut the onion into half rings.

Heat the butter in a thick-bottomed pan and fry the celeriac and onion for 5 min. Stir frequently.

Add the garlic, nutmeg, pepper and possibly salt and fry 3 min. Stir frequently. Add the stock cube tablets and water, bring to the boil and cook on low heat for 15 min with the lid on the pan.

Meanwhile, peel the pears, cut into quarters, remove the core and cut into wedges. Remove the pan from the heat, add the pear and puree with the hand blender.

Clean the hand blender. Add the whipping cream, season with pepper and salt, if necessary, and heat for 5 min on low heat. Meanwhile, coarsely chop the parsley, place with the oil and vinegar in a tall cup and puree with the hand blender.

Season with (freshly ground) pepper and salt, if necessary. Divide the soup among bowls and drizzle with the parsley oil. Delicious!

Celeriac is woefully underrated.

Pears?! might have to give this a try 🤔

The pears give it a nice and fruity touch. Meanwhile the parsley vinaigrette adds a bit of acidity to cut through the sweetness. It works really well together.
