2 tablespoons snipped dill
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3 large shallots, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 small parsnips (about 4 ounces), peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1/2 small celeriac (about 6 ounces), peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 small carrots (about 3 ounces), peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
4 cups canned low-sodium or Homemade Chicken Stock, skimmed of fat
8 sprigs fresh tarragon

I'm not a huge fan of beets, but I loved this soup. The beets added a nice sweetness to the broth, and they weren't overpowering at all.
