A beautifully elegant and subtle soup – Cream of Celery
Well, the adventure with my newly arrived CWA Cookbook has begun. While the cookbook is a tribute to sensible, simple, rustic fare; honest food that is easy to pronounce and easy to make and where all of the ingredients would be in your pantry, the first recipe to be tried out was also a testament to elegance and subtle flavours.
The Cream of Celery Soup adventure came about as a result of too much celery and not enough enthusiasts. Needless to say, once the celery appeared in this beautiful soup served with our previously published home-made sourdough bread, there was none left to complain about!
I think celery is now back on the list for planting in the garden this spring, and there is no doubt that this soup would pair perfectly with our delicious, gold medal Sauvignon Blanc. Enjoy.
