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.

Parsley-Potato Soup image

Categories     Bread     Potato     Vegan     Parsley     Simmer

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups water with 2 vegetable bouillon cubes, or other stock option (page 9)
6 medium potatoes, preferably a mealy variety like russet, peeled and diced
2 bay leaves
4 ounces vegan cream cheese, diced
1/2 cup firmly packed chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
2 cups rice milk, or as needed
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a soup pot. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to sauté until both are golden.
  • Add the water with bouillon cubes, potatoes, and bay leaves. Bring to a rapid simmer, then lower the heat. Cover and simmer gently until the potatoes are just tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Remove about 1/2 cup of the hot liquid with a ladle and transfer it to a small mixing bowl. Combine with the cream cheese and whisk together until smooth and creamy. Stir into the soup along with the parsley and dill.
  • Slowly sprinkle in the oats. Simmer for another 20 to 25 minutes over very low heat, or until the potatoes are completely tender.
  • Add enough rice milk to give the soup a slightly thick consistency, then season with salt and pepper. Discard the bay leaves. Heat through and serve. This soup thickens as it stands; thin as needed with additional rice milk, then adjust the seasonings.
