CELERY-LEEK SOUP WITH POTATO AND PARSLEY
This celery-forward soup is in essence a potato-leek soup that substitutes most of the potatoes with brighter celery, and skips the vast quantities of cream in the original, resulting in a lighter flavor and texture. Woodsy herbs like thyme and bay leaves, and fresh, raw parsley give the soup its intensely green, almost grassy taste. It's worth trying the soup without dairy, then admiring the transformative effect of a splash of crème fraîche or cream, which subdues the louder celery notes.

Steps:
- In a large pot, heat the 1/4 cup oil over medium. Add the leeks and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until meltingly tender, about 7 minutes.
- Add the celery, potato, bay leaves and thyme, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the wine to deglaze, then cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid is almost dry, about 3 minutes.
- Add the stock and bring to boil over high. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until all the vegetables are fully tender and soft, about 20 minutes. Discard the bay leaves, then stir in 1 cup parsley leaves.
- Working in two or three batches, transfer the soup to a blender and purée until smooth. (It's almost always beneficial to let the soup blend for another minute or two past what seems necessary to emulsify as much as possible.) Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Transfer to bowls. Drizzle with olive oil; garnish with reserved celery leaves and parsley, and sprinkle with pepper. Serve with a dollop of crème fraîche or a drizzle of heavy cream.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Potatoes: Select small, new potatoes that are uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
- Scrub and Parboil: Thoroughly scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt or debris. Parboiling helps to slightly soften the potatoes, reducing the overall cooking time.
- Slice the Leeks Properly: Cut the leeks lengthwise and then thinly slice them to create long, thin strips. This will help them cook evenly.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh parsley adds a vibrant flavor to the dish. If you don't have fresh parsley, you can substitute dried parsley, but use half the amount.
- Don't Overcook: Keep an eye on the potatoes during cooking to prevent them from overcooking and becoming mushy.
