How To Make cream of celery soup

  • Step 1
    Melt the butter in a Dutch Oven or a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the onions and celery cooking until really soft; about 7-10 minutes.
  • Step 2
    Reduce the heat to low and add the garlic. Cook for 1 minute while stirring constantly. Add the bay leaf and low-sodium chicken broth. Bring to a low boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 20-25 minutes
  • Step 3
    Using an immersion blender or stand blender puree the soup. Turn the heat to as low as it will go and stir in the cream and fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
