Roasted Celeriac Soup

Roasted Celeriac Soup

This smooth and creamy soup uses the often forgotten about root veggie celeriac (celery root). It has the texture of a potato, but with a celery-like flavor. Roasting the veggies brings out their natural sweetness. Use vegetable broth instead of chicken, for a vegetarian alternative.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds celeriac (celery root), peeled and cubed
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and cubed
  • 1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 5 cups chicken broth, divided
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 6 teaspoons truffle oil, or to taste
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2
Combine celeriac, carrots, onion, and garlic in a large bowl. Sprinkle with Herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and stir to combine evenly. Spread out vegetables on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3
Roast vegetables in the preheated oven until cooked through, stirring every 19 to 15 minutes, about 40 minutes total.

Step 4
Place roasted vegetables into a high-powered blender. Add 4 cups chicken broth and blend on high speed until smooth, about 1 minute.

Step 5
Pour mixture into a large saucepan over medium heat. Add remaining chicken broth and heat, stirring, until warmed through. Stir in heavy cream. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with a light drizzle of truffle oil and a sprinkling of green onions.

Cook’s Tip:

For a thinner soup, use an extra cup of chicken broth.
