If you have never had chestnut soup before you are in for a real treat. This is a very rich creamy soup. I buy my chestnuts already roasted and peeled. They are available at my local Asian market. A blender is required for this recipe.
Ingredients
1/2 cup onion, diced
3 celery stalks, diced
1 large carrot, diced
2 tsp garlic, minced
2 cups water
400 grams roasted and peeled chestnuts
3 tsp vegetable stock powder
3 cups unsweetened non dairy milk
Directions
In a little water, saute the onion, celery, carrot and garlic until soft.
Add in the water, chestnuts and vegetable stock powder. Bring to a boil and simmer, covered for 30 minutes.
When cool enough to blend, transfer to a blender ( I use a Vitamix) and process until smooth. You may need to add some of the non dairy milk at this point.
Return soup to the pot and add the remaining milk. Mix well.
Heat and serve.
Enjoy!
