Shakertown Tomato Celery Soup Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Saute' onion and celery in butter until tender, but not brown. Add remaining ingredients and heat through.

Steps:

• Heat butter in a large (4-quart) saucepan over medium heat. Add celery, onion, and potato; season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add 6 cups water to saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until vegetables are very tender, about 20 minutes.
• Working in batches, puree soup until smooth. (To prevent splattering, fill blender only halfway, and allow the heat to escape: Remove cap from hole in lid; cover lid with a dish towel, holding down firmly while blending.) Return soup to pan; stir in lemon juice, and season with salt. Serve, garnished with celery leaves.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and leek; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook for 1 minute. Transfer to a soup pot.
• Heat remaining olive oil in the same frying. Saute celery to release some of the moisture, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer celery to the soup pot. Add chicken broth and potatoes. Cut parsley into the pot using kitchen scissors. Season soup with thyme, seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a rolling simmer.
• Reduce heat and simmer until carrots, celery, and potatoes are soft enough to easily puree, about 30 minutes. Avoid cooking vegetables until mushy. Remove from heat and cool for about 20 minutes.
• Puree soup with an immersion blender. Simmer over low heat until heated through, 10 to 15 minutes. Serve immediately or let flavors meld overnight and serve the next day.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a sauce pan, cook the onions for 3-5 minutes over medium heat till soft, then add celery and garlic and cook for another 5 minutes.
• Add the tins of tomato, chicken stock and honey to the pan, and bring to the boil. Turn into the low heat, cover the pan and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Remove from the heat to cool a little and use a hand mixer or a food processer to puree.
• Add the cream, salt and pepper, then reheat the soup but not to bring to the boil. Little bit of cream for decoration to serve if you like.
