Ingredients

• 6 pieces Celery stalks
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 3 pieces Garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 4 cups Vegetable stock
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 4 ounces Blue cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and chop the celery into thin slices. Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until translucent.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and celery to the pot, and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Slowly pour in the vegetable stock, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.

Step 6

Cover the pot and let the soup simmer for 20 minutes, or until the celery is very tender.

Step 7

Use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth, or carefully transfer it to a countertop blender in batches and blend until creamy.

Step 8

Return the soup to the pot and stir in the heavy cream and crumbled blue cheese. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until the cheese has completely melted and the soup is velvety smooth.

Step 9

Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 10

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
