1
medium celery root (about 1 pound), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
-
1 quart

1
to 2 tablespoons lemon juice, to taste

4 tablespoons
olive oil

Directions
-
Combine scallion whites and light greens, celery root and water in a medium saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil; reduce soup to a simmer and cook 15 minutes or until celery root is tender. In batches, blend vegetables with scallion greens; season soup with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

While soup simmers, heat oil over medium-high. Add parsley leaves to hot oil and cook until crispy and oil turns green, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve soup warm or chilled, garnished with parsley oil and fried parsley leaves.
