Celery Soup

This last weekend we went for dinner at one of our favorite French restaurants— Deux Amis. Our sons standard order is the soup of the day, grilled calamari, and pink-fish, a.k.a salmon. So on a lovely spring evening, we sat there with our four year old son, and twin one year old girls, eating Celery Soup. Two evenings later, my son requested the same soup. I did my best to re-create it. 

Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Ingredients
1 bunch celery hearts, chopped
1 small white onion, chopped
1 small waxy potato
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

3 cups vegetable / chicken broth
1/4 cup fresh dill 
Salt, to taste

Method
  1. In a 5qt pot, cook the first four ingredients for 8–10 minutes. Keep stirring.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and it let it cook for another 10–15 minutes.
  3. Puree to a smooth consistency. Garnish with celery leaves and sea salt.
