Soup Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 7 to 8 ribs celery, roughly chopped
  • 1 pound russet potatoes, roughly chopped
  • 1 large onion, roughly chopped
  • 3 cups water, plus more as needed
  • 1 tablespoon chicken broth concentrate (such as Better Than Bouillon)
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed, crushed in the palm of your hand
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Sauté the Vegetables: Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the roughly chopped celery, potatoes, and onion. Sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften but not fully cooked.
  2. Simmer the Soup: Pour in 3 cups of water and add the chicken broth concentrate. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer gently. Cook for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
  3. Add Celery Seed and Puree: Sprinkle the crushed celery seed into the soup. Using a blender or immersion stick blender, carefully puree the soup until it reaches a smooth consistency. Add additional water or stock as needed to achieve your desired thickness. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

  • You can substitute the chicken broth concentrate with 3 cups of your favorite stock for a different flavor base or to keep the soup lighter.
  • For a vegetarian version, replace chicken broth concentrate with vegetable broth concentrate or vegetable stock.
  • Adjust the soup consistency by adding more liquid during blending if you prefer a thinner soup.
