Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 parsnips, peeled and chopped into 1-inch pieces (about 1 pound)
2 stalks celery, chopped
2 bulbs fennel, trimmed and chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 onion, chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
Crispy cooked bacon, chopped, for garnish
Grated Parmesan, for garnish
Pomegranate Gremolata, for garnish, recipe follows
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a 3 1/2-quart Dutch oven medium-high heat. Add the parsnips, celery, fennel, onion, salt and fennel seeds. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Add 4 cups water and the bay leaf to the pan, and stir. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover with a lid. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are very soft. Allow to cool slightly.
  • Puree the soup in two batches, adding half of the almond milk to each batch. Return the soup to the Dutch oven, and heat to warm through--alternatively, pour the soup into a slow cooker and keep warm on the low setting. Serve garnished with bacon, Parmesan and Pomegranate Gremolata.
  • In a bowl, mix together the parsley, pomegranate seeds, lemon zest and salt.

This soup was okay, but nothing special. It was a bit too thick for my taste and the flavor was a bit bland. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

This soup was a waste of time and ingredients. It was bland, watery, and had a weird texture. I'm surprised this recipe even made it online.

Avoid this recipe! The soup was a complete disaster. It was burnt, lumpy, and had a strange aftertaste. I'm never making this again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out terrible. It was watery, bland, and completely unappetizing. I'm going to have to try a different recipe.

This soup was a disappointment. The flavor was bland and the texture was watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right. I won't be making this again.

The soup was good, but not great. It was a bit too salty for my taste and the texture was a bit grainy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I found this soup to be a bit too heavy. The creaminess was overwhelming and the flavor was too rich for my taste. I think I'll stick to lighter soups in the future.

Meh, this soup was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. The flavor was kind of bland and the texture was a bit watery. I wouldn't make it again.

Not a fan of this soup. The texture was too thick and the flavor was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right. Maybe I'll try it again with some modifications.

This soup is a must-try for soup lovers! It's incredibly creamy and flavorful, with a hint of sweetness from the carrots and celery. I added a bit of cayenne pepper for a touch of spice, and it was perfect. Highly recommend!

This soup was an absolute delight! The white velvet texture was like a cloud on my tongue, and the subtle flavors of celery and onion complemented each other perfectly. I added a bit of extra black pepper for a touch of spice, and it turned out divin
