3 for 5.

 

 

celery root, apple & russet potato soup

this truly just came together in a very hodge podge way 

it started as it always does at the market

3 celery roots for 5$

i couldn't resist

*make it yours* 

if you are so inspired

good for 4 - 6 servings 

depending on how you are going to serve it 

(6 tea cups/4 bowls/1 pot etc)

 peel 1 - 2 celery roots

they are so gorgeous

(you can find faces in them with the kids)

just get in there with your peeler 

you will begin to see their bare white skin

chop up into chunky cubes

do the same with 2 fiji or gala apples 

(i love the sweeter ones)

1 russet potato

set aside in bowl you love

then...

create your soup base in a 6 - 8 cup pot on medium

a 2 circle pour of olive oil OR 

a chunk of ghee, earth balance, butter 

whatever you got

chop up a medium size sweet yellow onion 

sweat that love for about 5 - 8 minutes 

a cube of repunzel vegan bullion (herb or sea salt) 

mix together with some herbs if you have 
(parsley, thyme for a rustic way)

now the onion should be giving you that glazed look 

add bowl of roots and apples

add 4 - 5 cups of water (just enough to cover)

you can always add later

bring to a boil

then to a simmer 

with lid on

30+ minutes (more the merrier)

fork it all to see if it's ready

wait to cool or use immersion blender

puree & taste

it might need a little more bullion 

OR it might need salt

i found that mine needed all the broth to make it thinner

you could add 

a nut oil like hazelnut or walnut or chopped up pistachio or walnuts

some parmesan or manchego never hurts
a 3 minute egg is deluxe

i love to eat soup out of a tea cup

makes it fancy pants

enjoy beauties
