Description
The soup is simple and quick to prepare. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add celery, shallot, potatoes, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft but not browned, about 15 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 30 minutes. Stir in nutmeg. Let cool. Puree the soup in a blender or food processor until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve into a large bowl. Pour the soup back into the pot and season with salt. Just before serving, reheat the soup over medium heat (do not boil). Stir in the cream and serve, garnished with celery leaves and slices of baguette. The soup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Serve the soup hot.
