A sophisticated take on turnip porridge, featuring celery root for added complexity, a silky velouté texture, and a crunchy brown butter crumb topping.
A sophisticated take on turnip porridge, featuring celery root for added complexity, a silky velouté texture, and a crunchy brown butter crumb topping.
Melt 2 tbsp Butter in a large pot over medium heat.
Add Shallot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add Garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add diced Turnips and Celery Root and Vegetable Stock to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 40 minutes, or until vegetables are very tender.
While vegetables simmer, prepare the brown butter crumbs: Melt remaining 2 tbsp Butter in a small pan over medium heat. Cook until butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Add Panko Breadcrumbs and toast until golden and crispy. Set aside.
Carefully blend the soup with an immersion blender until very smooth. Alternatively, transfer to a regular blender in batches.
Stir in Heavy Cream and heat through. Do not boil.
Season with Salt, White Pepper, and Cayenne Pepper.
Serve hot, topped with Brown Butter Crumbs and Chives.
