Either warm or cold, this thick, creamy soup, with its vibrant accents of vinegar and sour cream, makes taste buds sing.

Ingredients

  • 8 whole black peppercorns
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 4 russet potatoes, (1-1/2 lb/750 g)
  • 2 cups sodium-reduced chicken stock
  • 3 tbsp white vinegar
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

In cheesecloth square, tie together peppercorns and bay leaves with string; set aside.

In large saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; cook celery, onion and salt, stirring occasionally, for about 8 minutes or until tender but not browned.

Meanwhile, peel and cube potatoes to make 4 cups (1 L). Add to pan; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add 3 cups (750 mL) water, chicken stock, vinegar and spice bag; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Discard spice bag.

With immersion blender or food mill, pur?soup until smooth. (Make-ahead: Let cool for 30 minutes; refrigerate in airtight container for up to 2 days.) Whisk in sour cream and parsley. Heat through over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Additional information : Tip: An immersion blender gives this soup its silky texture. If you don't have one, pulse soup (do not whiz) in batches in a regular blender.
