FAST, EASY, ELEGANT CHESTNUT SOUP
This is from an idea in a French women's magazine. I want to make chestnut soup for my French inlaws for Christmas dinner instead of those nasty, hard chestnuts they are always serving. I have been auditioning soups. This is the winner. Would be great garnished with some very crispy bacon or pancetta.

Steps:
- This is really easy.
- Put everything except the cream, salt and pepper in a soup pot.
- Bring to boil, turn dow, and cook gently for 30 minutes.
- Mush up the chestnuts a bit with a fork.
- Decide if you want the soup a bit chunky, or really smooth.
- I prefer the smooth version.
- For both, use immersion blender to the point where you like the look of the soup for a chunky version.
- For the really smooth version, blend in blender after using the immersion blender until it reaches the consistency you like.
- Taste, check for seasoning, add salt and pepper, stir in cream.
- If it is too thick, add a bit of stock or water.
- I liked it best a bit thick.

Steps:
- To Cook Chestnuts: With a sharp knife, slice an 'X' across each chestnut. Place chestnuts in a single layer on a jelly roll pan. Pour 1/4 cup water into the pan. Bake in a preheated 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) oven for 10 minutes. When cool enough to handle, shell and peel.
- In a large saucepan combine the chicken stock, shelled chestnuts and chopped onions. Place the parsley sprigs, cloves and bay leaf in a spice bag and add to the chicken stock mixture. Simmer over medium-low heat for 45 minutes.
- Discard the spice bag and puree the chestnut mixture in a food processor or blender. Add the heavy cream, sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Return mixture to saucepan and gently heat through. To serve to with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream, a bit of chopped parsley and some cooked chopped chestnuts just before serving. High quality vegetable broth can be substituted for the chicken broth.
