    This made an amazing soup. I used my own homemade chicken stock and some rosemary instead of the thyme. Fantastic soup with simple ingredients and a definite repeat. I blended the whole pot for a smoother soup. This has to be one of my top ten soups of all time! Looking forward to making it again.

    This is not your usual silky smooth celeriac soup, but none the less incredibly delicious! Loved the addition of bacon and mustard to the celeriac and the fact that the soup is only partly puréed.

    This was really delicious. Celeriac and smoked bacon are a match made in heaven, and the mustard gives it an extra zing.
