POTATO, PARSNIP, AND CELERY ROOT SOUP
Steps:
- In a soup pot or large Dutch oven, heat the butter and oil over medium-low heat. Add the leeks and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the potatoes, parsnips, celery root, and garlic, cover the pot, and stir occasionally until the veggies are heated through and softening a bit on the edges, about 10 minutes. Add the mustard, thyme, and bay leaf and continue to cook for 2 more minutes, or until aromatic. Add the wine and cook until the liquid has completely evaporated, about 1 minute.
- Add the broth and water, cover the pot partially, and increase the heat to medium-high. Bring just to a boil, then lower the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Continue to cook, partially covered, until the vegetables are completely soft and have started to break down a bit, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- To finish the soup, remove and discard the thyme stems and bay leaf and, working in batches, carefully puree the soup in a blender (or use an immersion blender). If you prefer a thinner soup, add a little more water to adjust the thickness.
- Stir in the cream and the lemon juice and taste. Adjust with more lemon juice or salt as needed and reheat as necessary.

- This soup is wonderful garnished with fresh croutons sautéed in butter and some chopped chives.
