The Blue Pig in Croton NY serves ice cream in the summer, home made soup in the winter
Today’s soup is from Lisa Moir, the owner of Blue Pig Ice Cream in Croton NY. I’m a huge fan of Blue Pig ice cream and wrote about it last summer in my blog. (click here to read my review). As the weather has cooled off, Lisa is now offering two soups a day at the Blue Pig.
Cream of Celeriac Soup
Ingredients:
1 1/2 celery root, trimmed peeled, and cut up
2 3/4 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
*optional – freshly grated nutmeg for serving
In a medium saucepan bring the celery root and chicken stock to a boil, lower the heat and simmer covered for 20 minutes
In a blender, working in batches of no more than 2 cups, puree the root and stock
When all is blended return contents to the pot and heat through
Season with salt and pepper to taste
Sprinkle nutmeg over each serving if desired
ENJOY!
