Celery Root Soup With A White Cheddar Cap Recipes

CELERY ROOT SOUP (WITH OTHER ROOT VEGGIES)

Steps:

• Place cashews in a small pot with about 2 cups of water and bring to a simmer. Reduce to a low-medium simmer and cook for 15 to 20 minutes to soften cashews. Drain and rinse.
• Place cashews, nutritional yeast, and vegetable broth in a high-powered blender.
• Cover and blend until smooth and not grainy. Time may vary depending on how powerful your blender is. I don't add any salt, but you could if you prefer. Set aside.Note: If you want things thicker, use less broth.
• Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Then add leek, carrot, and garlic. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes.
• Add celery root, potatoes, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Stir. Pour in vegetable broth (I use 6 cups, but use 5 if you want a thicker consistency).
• Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat (to about medium-low heat) to a simmer. Cover and cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until veggies are tender.
• Remove two cups of soup, place into a heat-safe container, and carefully blend with an immersion blender until smooth. Stir back into the soup.
• Stir in the cashew cream. Note: If you want to use dairy instead of cashew cream, stir in 1/2 cup or so of half-and-half or heavy cream.
• To serve, divide the soup into bowls and garnish (as desired) with any of your favourite soup toppings (croutons are delicious). Enjoy!
