I don’t know, it seems so bland. I was hoping for more flavor. Maybe I just did it wrong.
Wow, this soup is amazing! I added some garlic for an extra kick. Will make it again for sure!
I think this recipe is fancier than it needs to be. It’s just celery soup after all! But it turned out OK.
I get what you mean, it does sound fancy for just celery! But sometimes a little effort pays off for flavor!
