Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

¼ cup butter
1 medium onion, chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
¼ cup all-purpose flour
8 cups chicken broth
2 cups smooth peanut butter ((use a jar of store-bought peanut butter, or see note below to make your own natural peanut butter))
1 ¾ cups light cream
Garnish: chopped roasted salted peanuts, chopped fresh parsley; sliced green onion

Steps:

Melt butter in a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery and sauté until soft, but not brown (about 5-7 minutes). Stir in flour until well blended, about 1 minute.
Add chicken broth, stirring constantly, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer broth uncovered for about 10 minutes (to allow the broth to thicken slightly). Remove from heat and puree with a hand-held stick blender, in a food processor, or in batches in a regular blender.
Add peanut butter and cream, stirring to combine. Heat over low heat, just until warmed through and peanut butter is melted (do not boil). Ladle into individual bowls and garnish with chopped peanuts, parsley and/or sliced green onion.

Salmagundi was the chef's salad of 18th century England. In present day England and in Colonial Williamsburg, the name has been revived. My mother enjoyed serving this as a main course for dinner. We always liked it!
